The clothing the girls and other students wore.


I really like this movie and I also really liked the clothes Betsy and Arlene were wearing along with the other students. My question is where can I find some of the clothing they wore?

I would like to second this. But what I really want to know is where I can find the headband Arlene wore in her dream sequence.

look up retro clothing shops.

Your best bet is Etsy, ModCloth, and local estate sales, Etsy and ModCloth sell a lot of mod and 70s clothes to anyone willing to pay top dollar for it, if you want the clothes cheap than its best to buy old sewing patterns and make them from scratch because the clothes are either going to be expensive or hard to find(and in wearable condition too that's in the right size--the Holy Grail is easier to find)

A lot of second hand clothing stores on Height Street and elsewhere here in San Francisco have some great stuff and lots of it is nearly free. Specifically retro shops may be better choices because the fabric will be less likely to easily rip and more likely to not look "too authentic" if that bothers you. If you wanted those hot-pants made from the flag like in the movie, then you may need to sew it yourself.

It was fun to see shag carpets again!
