Costume design in film is so important—and if it's done well, it elevates the movie. Whether it's a period drama where every piece is ornate and historically accurate (Bonnie and Clyde and Marie Antoinette), or simply a must-watch classic film that perfectly encapsulates the fashion from the decade of its release (The Breakfast Club and Clueless), the costumes add to and enrich the experience.
We're rounding up the best-dressed movie characters who are so stylish that their wardrobes live on even today—whether they're from films considered fashion movies or not. They can be sources of inspiration for pieces you need in your closet and even Halloween costumes, or at the very least, cinematic eye candy worth seeing.
