Aired: 2002
First, Mohammed our resident taunter and shamer is seriously prancing around with his collar popped. He’s also a wrestler so he’s next seen is his windbreaker. And finally, ice cream boy is taken down a few pegs, his baseball tee accented with a work hat and apron.

I mean, you know the drill by now. Sheila wears an orange polo, a white apron, and a hair net. That’s all we’re ever gonna get. I can’t resist including her though. This episode is extra special because she gives Jimmy and Spinner boner advice.

“This ain’t a soup kitchen I’m runnin’ here, princess.” Sheila is as merciless as the hue of her orange lunch lady uniform.

Spinner’s got his hair spiked and is wearing a cool 2000s dude short sleeve over a long sleeve tee, baggy khaki pants, and I had to include this discman. He also has on that spiky necklace. So, after Kwan breaks his discman, he has to report to caf duty, his community service after letting earwigs loose in the caf. Then he dons a jacket to go troll Kwan after hours. The next day he boasts about how he got Kwan to cry, and he’s wearing an olive green long sleeve.

Just a little Sheila moment for you, in her orange uniform and hair net.

This group of posts was formerly known as “Minor Character Fashion” but I am hereby renaming it to “Miscellaneous Fashion” because I also like to include group shots of people we do know. First is a look at Kwan’s class, students dressed in typical 2000s garb such as cowl neck sweaters. Then is Kwan’s night ESL class, so you get to see a variety of traditional and typical outfits representing many cultures. Then we see the sassy pizza man, the grumpy security guard, and now we are back in Kwan’s class, where Jeremy from The Princess Diaries has made a special guest appearance.

This janitor’s name is Lou. I remember because Kwan addresses him. Okay so I just googled “Degrassi janitor lou” to make sure he didn’t have a last name or anything else I need to know. And lo and behold, there’s a janitor in DJH referred to as Lou! He was in “The Experiment”. (Yes, they do mention that it may not be a coincidence that a later janitor is called Louella.) But like, did they do this on purpose, naming TNG janitor Lou? Or, could it be the same guy? That would be amazing. Anyway, so he’s here in his work coveralls and his DCS badge.

Okay so first, Spinner is in this distressed tee that almost reminds me of the Affliction trend that came later. Then, I mean, we really just have to talk about this famous hoodie. I gave it a tag, “The Ratty Hoodie”, so that I can track how often Spinner wears it. That’s part of the joke later, that Spinner “wears that hoodie too much”. I like that little plot point because I definitely got made fun of at that age for the same thing (which is weird, right? I mean, you buy clothes to wear them over and over, right?). I also like that plot point because once again, it reflects real life, that people are outfit repeaters, which doesn’t get represented on TV enough. Personally I like to make fun of this hoodie in my head, (lovingly of course), and pretend that it’s like, withered and worn and tattered, probably has some holes in it, and probably smells kind of musty. I also like to pretend it used to be white. Maybe it came from a yard sale or he found it in a trash bin on the side of the road. Anyway, so this greige, somewhat thin hoodie with super cool dragons on the front will return, so stay tuned. And lastly, Spinner has to work in the caf so he gets to don a uniform and look just like Sheila, in an orange polo, a white hairnet, and a weird wilty hairnet that doesn’t even have its elastic anymore.

I just LOVE Sheila the lunch lady. She’s amazing and definitely one of the best actors to ever grace Degrassi’s screen. I also saw her in an episode of Goosebumps and her performance was impeccable there as well. But I’ma steer the conversation back to why we’re here – the fashion. Sheila is in uniform of course, which is a white apron, a very orange polo, and a hair net.
