PHILADELPHIA — When we meet Sandy Olsson, Olivia Newton-John’s beloved good girl in the classic film "Grease" she’s wearing poodle skirts over puffy crinolines; Peter Pan collared blouses and cardigans; and bobby socks and saddle shoes. Her blond hair is pulled back into a high ponytail.
Her fashion statement is innocence.
Yet, by the film’s end, Sandy is fierce in a pair of skin-tight black leather pants and a sexy off-the-shoulder blouse. Her hair is a mess of tousled curls. She puts a cigarette out with her stilettos during the dynamic finale “You’re The One That I Want.” And she rides off into the sunset with Danny (John Travolta), who we can assume is thrilled with his lady’s makeover. After all, he can now ditch the letter sweater he tried to wear in an attempt to clean up his reputation while earnestly courting her.
