The Secret Clueless Reference and Vintage Designer Bags in "Zola"
It’s stripper month here at Fishnet Flix and we’re kicking things off with Zola! We’ve been waiting for the “Thotyssey” to come out 4-eva and it did not disappoint. The costumes designed by Derica Cole Washington that Taylour Paige and Riley Keough wear throughout the movie are perfection. Vintage Dior, Fashion Brand Company, Zara, even some ASOS in there, and the lowkey homages to Wizard of Oz, Clueless, Romy & Michele are brilliant. We’re adding vintage LV Speedys to our carts, thank you! Tune in now and let us know what you think on the socials.

Striptease
"Do you care for the Artist Formerly Known as Prince?" For this week’s Stripper Month-themed episode, we’re heading back to 1996 to hang out at the Eager Beaver! Demi Moore made headlines for her portrayal of a single mom-turned-exotic dancer in Striptease. The Oscar-winning costume designer Albert Wolsky (Grease, All That Jazz, Bugsy, Revolutionary Road) dressed Moore in sequin bikinis, platform go-go boots, and feather boas, but let’s not forget about style icon Burt Reynolds and his Vaseline-filled cowboy boots! We also discuss weird TikTok cooking videos and Jennifer Coolidge’s caftans in White Lotus.
