Silverstone came to fame as ‘the girl in the Aerosmith video’ after appearing in several of the bands music videos and following a Lolita role in the 1993 film Crush. Silverstone then went on to play the girl we all know and love; the iconic Cher Horrowitz in 1995s Clueless.
Sex, clothes, popularity....whatever! |
Clueless captured a moment in pop culture. The fashion, music and snappy slang is encapsulated in Amy Heckerling’s take on Jane Austin’s Emma.
'As if' |
Alicia played the pampered, but sweet, Beverly Hills Princess Cher. Clueless is everything a teen movie should be and led the pack of 1990s filmed aimed at the MTV generation.
A Virgin who can't driiiiiive |
Fashion - Cher’s wardrobe really captured the best of 90’s fashion. It bypassed grunge and went straight for the baby doll dresses, tartan skirts, over knee socks, headbands, platforms and tanks with oversized cuffed shirts.
Er HELLO this is an Alaia!!! |
And who can forget the Azzedine Alaia dress she wore to the 'Val' party?!
The Clueless soundtrack just about sums up 90s pop culture...and pretty much Novateur's ideal playlist...
