Minor Character Fashion: School’s Out!

Aired: 1992

Time for our extras, minors, randos, etc. First is the jewelry store man, disappointed he has Joey and Joey’s measly wallet as customers. Then is some random dude in the weed smoking circle, wearing nothing worth mentioning – he does have cool hair though. Next is a lady in a yellow spotted high-waist bikini at the public pool. Then another babe in a flowery one-piece. But I gotta say I love the grandma in goggles and a flower swim cap the best – she’s got the best looks at this concrete watering hole. And then, I think this is a lady at the abortion place? And maybe I’m crazy, but she looks kinda like she might be Lucy’s mom. Like, Anais wrote an article that showed pictures of her parents and I swear I remember her mom looking like that. I don’t know, it’s probably nothing. Next is another abortionist in a big floral dress to show us we are definitely creeping into the 90s for sure. And then, sorry to include such a terrible photo, but here are some servicepeople on the job after the accident.

Oh wow, Luke is here in School’s Out. And of course he’s DOING DRUGS!!!! He hasn’t changed a bit. And neither has his style really. This is the last time you’ll be bored by his tee shirts. No offense, Luke, you’re just not a fashion pioneer or anything.

Nancy is a social creature as ever, wearing a green blouse with a tie at the neck, and a voluminous updo. You can’t see her that good at the other party, but she wears a yellow short, jorts, and another high pony.

When you think of School’s Out, who do you think of? Chances are it’s probably Caitlin. That’s why we have a crapton of Caitlin shots for you today. Now I don’t know how it is that this movie is able to convey emotions so strongly. This film is so tangible. You can feel the sun on your skin, you can smell the parties, you can feel the feelings. So Caitlin’s ups and downs really take me along for the ride.

On to the fashion, her hair is a golden hue now, and still pretty big for graduation. I got a little closeup of the ring that Joey got for her, a heart with diamonds. To the post-grad party, she wears a grey belted dress. And the next morning her hair is enormous and she wears a bathrobe. Then her waitressing uniform is like a beer maiden outfit or something but it’s cute. We get a shot of some blue blouse that I can’t describe any more than that. Then we live a little summer fantasy in this long blue halter dress.  Then, she’s daydreaming about sex in this purple one piece. I remember when swimsuits felt like this. The material was kinda thin, the suit was too big in some places and too tight in others, and chlorine would eat up the fabric real quick. For a big date night, she wears a collar necklace and a green top, condom in tow. And for the big infamous party, she wears this blue tunic with a black belt and black shorts. It’s super cute outfit. Then, we get a brief look at her visiting Lucy in the hospital in an oversized button down. And finally, to the wedding she wears a shiny gold dress, an updo, and pearls, looking like a full grown lady.

Amy and Allison make a final appearance (actually, we do get to catch up with Allison one more time) and they are just living it up! The style has definitely shifted and we are definitely in the 90s. Allison wears dangly earrings and floral dress with shoulderpads, and for the big party she wears a floral t-shirt and green shorts. Amy wears a pretty sundress and for the party dons a tee and shorts. And of course they get wasted and almost die.

Alexa & Simon Fashion: School’s Out!

After trying to screencap this pair individually, I realized it’s easiest to just combine them into one post! Sorry they’re all out of order, but you remember what happens – they’re engaged, they fight a little bit while partying, and then they get married! Alexa’s hair is a nice warm shade of brown, and we get to see her in a blue tank and patterned shorts, her graduation gown, and this AWESOME post grad dress that’s off the shoulder and ruffly, then a couple of floral tees. And finally, a great early 90s wedding dress, very extra and very poofy. As for Simon, he’s grown his hair into a bit of a shag, and he wears a lot of the same that we’re used to – button downs, khakis, polos. But come on, let’s talk about what we’re really all here to talk about – Simon got a perm for his wedding day. I’m not really sure what to say about it. But he’s a nice poodly groom. It actually doesn’t look that bad. He could pull off the naturally-curly thing.

So yeah, I’m really glad we got to see Simon and Alexa in this movie, I’m glad they came back. I just love Alexa, she’s a bright ray of sunshine, and Simon is not so bad either.

Should I do a “where are they now” segment at the end of all this? I’m not sure if I want to or not, but I’ll say that I am honored and privileged to have been able to correspond with Ms. Irene (Alexa) the past couple of years via broomheadz. She’s one of my favorite characters so I’m still extremely humbled at the thought! From what I can see, she is having a great life and has a beautiful family.

As for Michael (Simon), I could have sworn I saw that he worked on TV or film sets behind the scenes. I think I found his LinkedIn or something at some point. But I just now did a brief little search and couldn’t locate him. I didn’t go into full stalker mode or anything though.

Wheels, what a sweetie! He cleans up nice, don’t ya think? Enjoy this one and only opportunity to see him in no denim and a tie. His mullet is also tighter than usual.
