Summer Fashion Inspiration From Your Favorite Movie Characters

Summer plans might be looking a little different this year, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have any reason to dress up this summer. Vacations and music festivals might be replaced with neighborhood walks and Netflix, but fashion remains important. And who better to take summer fashion inspiration from than the characters from everyone’s favorite summertime movies?

Baby Houseman - Dirty Dancing

Throughout Dirty Dancing, Baby pairs breezy, light-colored tops with denim for an effortlessly beautiful feel. To get her casual look, try pairing a pastel crop top or bodysuit with your favorite pair of shorts. Even if you’re not dancing your way into someone’s heart, you’ll still be perfectly dressed for the summer.

Elio - Call Me By Your Name

Elio generally sticks to patterned button-ups, striped tees, and denim. Wearing a bold-patterned top with a denim jacket will have you feel like you’re living out your dream of a summertime romance in Italy.

Donna and Sophie - Mamma Mia

Mamma Mia’s iconic mother-daughter duo wear mainly white-and-blue peasant tops throughout the film. Pair your favorite peasant top or loose-fitting blouse with overalls or a jumpsuit to match Donna’s iconic overalls. You’ll have maximum comfort, and your white-and-blue color scheme will radiate a perfect summertime look.

Jesse and Celine - Before Sunrise Series

Jesse tends to favor more structured jackets and tops, while Celine usually wears flowy, sleeveless tops and dresses. To recreate Celine’s look, try a plain tee layered under a sleeveless or slip dress, and to get Jesse’s look, try a casual shirt paired with a more elevated jacket.

Mia - La La Land

La La Land shows us that you can never go wrong with a bold, solid-colored dress. Throughout the film, Mia and her friends wear dresses in every color imaginable. Patterned dresses can be fun, but a simple dress in your favorite color can be a great way to face the summer.
