Omg i have SO many opinions about the fashion on this show.

All of season 6 trash it burn it never again. I actually like this season but the fashion is very oh honey no. And no it's not a sign of the times because the wardrobe department in season 5 or 7 did not suck ass.

[ummnothx]

I liked some of the fashion in season 6, but most of it was pretty bad.
I think Willow had some OK looks, this might've been the first season where her style wasn't absolutely horrendous 90% of the time. But I agree, for the most part, with a lot of it.

Although season 6 is the one that brought us Tara's better fashion choices, so...hmm.

I want buffy season 7 wardrobe and hair tbh

Those highlights and bang were superb

[bluestoplights]

her lil jean jacket look in the finale with the ponytail is still an inspiration tbh

[duchello]

I'm also glad you mentioned tara because they found every which way to style her in literally the most unflattering outfit always.

I honestly think that this was done deliberately at the behest of Joss Whedon in order to punish her for not having the kind of lithe body he is so clearly sexually attracted to. Whedon has talked openly about his disgust with Amber Benson’s body and his reluctance to cast her because of it. Such a petty slimeball.

I'm loving these posts

but I gotta ask - OP are you Ira Madison? lol

[ummnothx]

Hahahahaha, no. Not Ira Madison, had to google who that was. I'm just an enormous Buffy fan with a desire to be distracted from homework and work.

Buffy’s short dress/high boot combo is still a favorite of mine.

There was this one outfit in S2 where Buffy wore like a blue shirt and red skirt; I always loved that outfit for whatever reason

[a_files06]

Buffy Summers S1 is the height of her grasping onto being into fashion and I kind of wish it lasted a bit longer then it did.

[lovepollution]

I wanted that coat from Becoming SO BADLY (I still do tbh).

[bellwetherr]

same i would still wear it

[polaroidmoment]

I feel like an old lady but that dress in the first gif is SO short holy lmao. It is a great look though, I also think a lot of her style in season one is basically popular all over again so it doesn't seem as dated as the seasons from the early 2000's. Some of the leather/pleather looks they rocked in those seasons are awful lol.
