Another Gen Z list. How do you have Jack Sparrow, Legally Blonde, and Clueless on your list and not Peter O'Toole's thoab and keffiyeh from Lawrence of Arabia, the fur hats from Dr. Zhivago, Elizabeth Taylor's slip from Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (or the white dress from A Place in the Sun, Clint Eastwood's poncho in High Plains Drifter, Raquel Welch's 1 million years BC bikini, Marlon Brando's outfit from The Wild One, James Dean's red windbreaker from Rebel Without a Cause, Jane Fonda's plastic corset from Barbarella, Diane Keaton's men's suit from Annie Hall, Marlene Dietrich's tuxedo in Morocco, Rita Hayworth's strapless dress in Gilda, Tony Manero's white suit in Saturday Night Fever, Jennifer Beal's sweatshirt in Flashdance, Olivia Newton John's legwarmers and hair clips in Xanadu, Kim Novak's gray suit in Vertigo, and above all, Rick's dinner jacket in Casablanca and DARTH VADER? A lot of these started major fashion fads too. Jack Sparrow, lol.

I kept waiting for Eliza Doolittle's derby dress and then saw it take a back seat to Breakfast at Tiffany's. I guess you didn't want to pick the same actor twice, but I would have selected My Fair Lady over Titanic. And for a third Hepburn dress, there's her outfit in Sabrina. Audry Hepburn exudes class.

Courtiers are draperies that are hung in the interior openings of a house such as an archway and not in windows. These are double sided so they look finished from every angle.
One archway could have easily used 20 to 24 yards of fabric. Scarlett's dress took around 10 to 12 yards.

When i was a kid. I had not seen Gone with the Wind (still haven't, tbh. except during high school, but i fell asleep. lol, so when I saw Carol Burnett do her sketch parodying the movie, I had no idea that the drapery costume was from the movie. I thought Carol Burnett made it up.

How on earth can you mention slave Leia but not Darth Vader or Stormtroopers! People who haven't seen Star Wars know those costumes! They have transcended movies and are part of pop culture more than any you listed. This list was such a let down.

This is a fab video - I'd add costumes in Dune to this mix!
but in my opinion it's missing one detail - the names of the costume designers in each of the film. You mention Givenchy and a couple more - please give them all credit? :)

Olivia Newton John auctioned off the pants a few years ago to raise money for her cancer foundation - the pants sold for a lot of money, and the person who bought them, returned them to ONJ as he felt that she deserved to have them.

How can you talk about Scarlett OHaras curtain dress and not bring up Carol Burnetts parody version from Went with the Wind? Her parody of the dress is equally as iconic as the original dress and deserves at least a mention.

Yes Audrey Hepburns LBD is ubiquitous, classic and timeless. (Though I thought she was most fashionable in Sabrina. Interesting that there was no through line reference to the Princess Diana revenge dress.

Definitely feel like Darth Vader's look should've been in there instead of the gold bikini; the late great Carrie Fisher was pretty vocal about how much she HATED that thing, and Vader's look is ICONIC.

The number 20th, 17th, 10th and 6th are my favourites. Jack Sparrow and Indiana Jones are the best and the Hogwarts students are relatables. And Marty McFly is one of my favourite young characters.

How Darth Vader isnt on this list is shocking. The suit is so iconic that it gives you chills whenever you hear his raspy breathing. Hes the most powerful villain ever put on screen.

The green dress from GWTW was stunning & BEYOND iconic The blue/white gingham dress in the Wizard of Oz. We wore long blue/white gingham dresses in J. H. Vocal Music Concerts.

Sorry but this list is awful. You left out so many iconic dresses, and featured others that aren't half as recognizable. (the only Star Wars dress is Leia's bikini? for real) Tsk.

I'll never forget how well-dressed Kim Basinger was dressed by Linda Henrikson in Batman with Michael Keaton, directed by Tm Burton (1989. Otherwise, spot-on, good job!

I always preferred Sandy as the preppy girl to the electric greaser. She seemed more clean cut, and put together, plus she was way too good for Danny.

The top costume is the one not designed by a costume designer and worn by the actress who began the disrespect of our entire craft. Fantastic.

I wish Moulin Rouge (2001) had made it onto the list. Nicole Kidman's character had some wonderful costumes that she wore throughout the movie.

Darth Vader's Armor Suit from Star Wars.
Such a badass, intimidating and iconic outfit.
My favorite version is from Revenge Of The Sith.

Im shocked Captain Jack Sparrow was no. 20. It should be at least in the top 5. Surely higher than the long black coats from the Matrix!

'Titular' Titanic. Please stop using the word 'titular' in these vids. The ''titular' Godfather, for example, is The Godfather.
