Alright so obviously Glenn is pretty much the coolest person to walk Degrassi Street. He rolls up wearing these boss shades and a medical school jacket.

Do you remember these sweatpants? Doesn’t feel like that long ago, does it? The days in which sweatpants had elastic around the ankles? But it was I guess. Anyway, Glenn of course is super responsible and wakes up early to run himself to death. I wonder if this Brooks shirt is related to the Brooks shoes which are popular today.

And finally, 100% perfect Glenn is still shunned and run out of his own home but he looks good doing it in a burgundy top and light wash super tight jeans.

Garcia might be the least creative fashion model on this show, offering us the least amount of variety here on Broomheadz. We’re here for FASHION, sir, fashion! What are you offering us? NOTHING!

Here’s Erica wearing this exceedingly 80s squiggle shirt (at least they’re getting good use out of this one) with a miniskirt, tights, a headband, and one big earring.

I just think this one-giant-earring thing is so cool. Maybe it’s because a was a little girl before this trend had totally faded away? Who knows. I think it’s awesome. I want to bring it back. Erica is wearing a shirt today that I’m not sure I’ve seen the twins wear before. It’s a big white button down with some tiny black print on it. She wears it halfway open over a black mockneck with a belt.

This little getup is actually pretty cute. She has dressed up what looks to be the same turquoise pants with a white blouse and a red plaid tie.

Okay, I totally have a denim skirt just like this, that my grandma was getting rid of, so I snagged it. Lo and behold, I can dress like Diana now! So she’s wearing this long denim skirt with buttons down the front and a dark tank.

So I didn’t know this lady had a name but she does – it’s Cindy. Cindy works at the front desk of C-R-A-Z radio. She’s got nice poofy hair including poofy curly bangs, giant green earrings, and if this wild patterned blouse doesn’t scream “80s” I don’t know what does.

Cindy kind of reminds me of a rich 80s mom here. I’m loving this emerald green blouse with a velvety neck scarf and chandelier earrings, complete with a classy updo.

Caitlin seems to have taken some inspiration from Nancy for a peach ensemble, but she’s added her own signature belt and headband.

Okay speaking of Caitlin and headbands, remember in DTNG S1E1 – the reunion episode? Where Caitlin brought a headband as a “memory” from high school implying that she wore tons of headbands? She really didn’t wear that many…

I’ve been enjoying BLT’s unique athletic but loud style. We have white hi-top tennies with tube socks, crazy yellow shorts, and a low-cut tank top. That skimpy shirt would have probably violated dress code at my school!

And I think I’m seeing some crazy shorts with some sort of landscape on them paired with this jersey. Rock on, BLT.

So the ensembles here were just too great to split up. I present to you a collective after school basketball fashion show that might remind you of a certain sexy sweaty basketball session in DTNG many years later. Enjoy the array of white sneakers and ctop tops, ladies and gentlemen. Kinda interesting parallel between the episode of DTNG that also deals with homosexuality and has a shirtless basketball game.
