Restyling Characters from Mean Girls 💘
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 апр 2021
- My first video on this side channel! I'll still be prioritizing ModernGurlz but I wanted to create a space where I could sporadically make casual and silly videos that don't necessarily fit with the MG format (reviews/commentaries/restyling/etc). This first video is how I would restyle the main characters from Mean Girls in modern day trends. I looked at this primarily from a costume design perspective but the outfits would work in real life too! How did I do?

Yess gretchen for best dressed 🏆
So so so agree 👏👏👏. Favourite character both personality and style
omg you two NEED to collab!!!
@@giovannacapparelli830 they have already on ModernGurlz!
@@mahatim8756 omg!! going to watch noow thxx
That's why her hair is so big! It's full of secrets!!!!
I like to think I know a decent amount about fashion myself, but I take everything Tessa says as fact.
Lol me too 😂💕
SAMEE!!!
Same lol
same hahaha
Me too, but I take some of her opinions and some I agree and some I kinda disagree but I take these clashing opinions to form my own opinion on clothing, style and how to express myself
when it hit me that when she said "the kids.." she was talking about people my age, I died. I'm the kids.
Its going to suck even more when it's the other way around..
I’m the grandma 😂
me too lol
I thought I was “the kids” when she
referred to younger people... even tho I keep forgetting I just turned 20
@@jazy6501 she means teenagers but i think early 20s do a lot of those tiktoks too
"Just to make it a little bit more... school appropriate."
"Have you seen Karen Smith's gym clothes?!"
"in the name of that's holy, HAVE YOU SEEN KAREN SMITH'S GYM CLOTHES?"
Maybe you could also do something with the movie Easy A, especially since corsets are having a major moment in everyday fashion (mainly thanks to tiktok in this case too haha) and because i always felt like the way Emma Stone‘s character styled them was very unrealistic for a 16/17 year old teenage girl
YES!!!
Wait she was supposed to be a teenager?? I only saw bits of the movie but I always thought she was in college???? Big oof.
@@toxicsugarart2103 Yeah a 17 year old in high school. It was always really weird to me as someone who isn't American cos so much of the school aspects in the film felt... SO un-high school that it confused me too lol
@@anadvs1 yeah a lot of the stuff in Easy A wouldn't fly today & _barely_ squeaked by back then.
like, in US public school? you'd be kicked out of class for wearing a corset, or sent home if you didn't change. also the teacher-student relationship was gross, & since the film revolved around teenage Emma pretending to be paid for sex... that movie likely wouldn't get funding today lol 😒
YES THAT WOULD BE SO GOOD
So no one's gonna talk about how she got that cherry blossom pochette out of nowhere??? We need a closet tour, Miss Tessa ASAP
OMG TURN IT UPPPPP
Is it not loud enough? I can hear it?? 🙂🙃🙂
Mina!
You're like the only adult who actually understands current teen fashion this was amazing
Hey Ik you just started but can you also do
-Clueless
-Heathers
Yesss!!!
omg yes!!
YESSSS
Heathers!!!
YASS
it's funny how restyling a 2004 movie in 2021 trends is basically 2004 but on steroids with the Y2K trend 😂
ps: so excited for this side channel, all your content is *chef's kiss*
Yeah definitely! That layering t-shirts under long sleeved tops was a thing back then
@@purplelucrezia you mean layering long sleeved tops under t-shirts right
Is it just me or does that vintage Dior saddle bag totally look like the burn book 😍
my thoughts exactly! i was surprised she didn't pointed it out
Totally
It's so weird to connect voice from modern gurlz with a real person. You're really pretty tho
Wait this is the modern gurlz girl?
@@GlamClan-xe3zi yeah
your voice sounds so different when you're not narrating a video 😳😳
Yeah, it’s a lot rougher and lower pitched. I kinda like it!
For me she sounds very similar, just less robotic and pitched
Not really
No I think she sounds the same...
This was so freaking accurate. It would be great if you restyled Easy A in a 2021 style. I’d love to see how you would reimagine the characters considering some things that were considered “slutty” in 2010 aren’t considered that “slutty” now. It would also be really interesting to see how you would reimagine characters from high school musical sense they all have kind of defined styles.
i kept going "this one's my favorite outfit." "no, this one." "no, wait, THIS one!" throughout the video. you just do not miss.
I love this way of restyling characters. I can't tell you how many Disney Princess "modern outfits" I've seen that turn ballgowns into shorts and a tshirt and practical workwear into trendy, barely-there fashion pieces. Same goes for taking modesty and financial means into account! Actually I'd really love to see you restyle Disney princesses in 2021 with this method!
I'm so sick of those Disney princess reimagines but if she did one I would absolutely love to see it
Cady would probably wear more indigenous African accessories and technical clothing at the same time; Karen pastel tie dye; and Gretchen, YSL Loulou heart sunglasses.
Your interpretation of Regina’s mall outfit is amazing! I can totally imagine her slaying it!
This video is the epitome of the “understood the assignment” meme. You made such a good point that people were doing either their own interpretations of their outfits but just in pink, or dead on recreations, both of which are cool to see, but I loved seeing you pinpoint their actual personalities and mental spaces in creating these outfits for today.
If someone from Netflix sees this, they will be like oh, let’s make a reboot (but make it darker because that’s what teenagers like) lol 😂
I swear all the new shows are dark now. It’s getting difficult to find light hearted shows that are not comedy. The world is already dark nowadays, do we really need to watch only dark things on TV ?
@@anhphi100 so true! When they will understand that’s not what we want!?
gurl you ARE allowed to judge these tiktok stylists, they seriously need a lesson😭
Also, I think you did a great job on most of the looks but I feel like some were a lil to far off, it's okay tho cause you're queen😌
Nava Rose does a great job most of the time!
I guess most people wouldn't buy clothes just for a tiktok, so they just throw together whatever they have regardless of whether it fits the topic
@@brandoniswhoiam not to sound harsh but i don’t think nava is as good as everyone thinks she is... she just has a lot of clothes and ‘unique’ pieces
ur pfp is hot
Mean Girls the musical did this since it was set in the current year it was made. Recommend checking it out, the songs slap!
The musical is great but the outfits are not
Especially Gretchen
@@yoyoitsroro3329 I totally agree, like I get that they wanted to differentiate it from the movie but like...Regina’s all white outfit in particular was not it. I felt so betrayed lol.
@@toxicsugarart2103 Right! I was had high expectations since the songs are 😚👌🏿 but the fits were very much giving me mid 2010s I’m sorry. Like you said about Regina’s full white fit (I swear she had sneaker wedges). Just overall kinda disappointing...
The outfits were not great but thet had some ideas that worked for adapting the styles for 2018 like Janis painting her clothes with acrilics and karen wearing lots of rainbow and holo like a little girl that loves unicorns
i love the Damian look so much. his clothes were so unassuming in the movie so it’s cool to see him in more fashionable clothing.
i mourn for the comeback of low rise jeans. i cant deal with it, i just cant
If we all refuse its not gonna be a trend
it’s so sad because it’s already come back and is in style
don't wear them then?
Tbh you can just keep wearing high rise jeans. It's not like they're gonna stop selling them (at least not right away). And if you wear long shirts/jackets, no one will really know if you're wearing high rise or low rise jeans if you're concerned about people calling you "old fashioned".
Yeah, they are so uncomfortable and they are all i see in shops
Who else thinks Tessa should do something like this for the Powerpuff girls after catching a glimpse of what’s happening there?
Manifesting Tessa's ppg video
lol the new mean girls stylists should’ve taken notes
"I live with other people, it can't all be pink" YES IT CAN
Tessa does not miss 💖
I would've liked to hear more about their jewelry choices - especially what Gretchen would wear instead of her Tiffany's toggle necklace/bracelet - but this was so much fun to watch!
I think Gretchen would wear the Pandora (snake chain) bracelet, as it’s the modern equivalent to the Tiffany toggle. I think she would also wear either the double cc Chanel, Vivienne Westwood orb (callback to her British inspired look) of a nameplate necklace - to copy Regina’s ‘R’.
@@kiks4757 oooh, I love those ideas! I could definitely see the Vivienne Westwood orb necklace! thanks for your input! ❤️
the 2024 mean girls stylists should have watched this
10 Things I Hate About You at some point? Would love to see some of the wardrobe translated to today's version of mid-90s Seattle meets Shakespeare. 😅 Also, love the pink on pink for today's look. And love that we got to see you! The concept is great, and I always appreciate your point of view on fashion so I'm looking forward to more of these.
Omg that pink eyeshadow, shirt and lipstick color. We love a style icon! ❤️
8:10 Cady turns into Euphoria´s Jules. Loved your video, i always wanted you to make videos with you actually in it!
You don’t have to try harder or apologize! This video was good! Please don’t burn yourself out on your more carefree channel, ANY content you make is interesting and fun to watch. Don’t tell yourself any different!
Wonderful idea Tessa - you’ve won my respect professionally and I’m so excited to get to know you in a more casual way 🥰🤍
Video looks great! Top tip from a fan is to make sure that you look at the camera lense not the view finder as it can be slightly distracting to the audience
the second look for cady really reminded of jules from euphoria with the plaid skirt and layering, sooo cute 🥺
Could you do an analysis on Desperate Housewives? Clothes reflecting there personalities would be so interesting. Especially Gabi and Bree!
Oh my god, yes.
And Gabrielle and Bree had the best style out of the girls.
@@sabrinac8453 totally 😋
Omg yessssss
the dior saddle bag looking like the burn book cover 💖 it's the perfect choice for her first outfit imo!
Tessa, I love how you dressed for “On Wednesdays, we wear pink” 💅👚🛍🎀
They’d deffo all wear Vivienne Westwood!!
Definitely
"Cady just looks normal"
shows clips of Cady wearing a hugely oversized guy's shirt she borrowed
I Agree with the tik tok restyling being mostly bad or basic but it was cool to see people with unique styles interpretations of the characters for example I saw goth mean girls, punk rock mean girls, street wear mean girls etc
I love knowing that you're tall, fashion can be hard for tall girls
Ikr, it’s hard, especially for things to fit you properly
Tall girls are beautiful! Truly beautiful!
i would totally wear gretchen's updated outfits, I love preppy academia styles
This was so thoughtful and interesting! And the idea of putting Regina in a leather pants in the beginning of the movie makes a great contrast to the part when she can only wear sweats pants. Also, it was really exciting to see your face!
I'm obsessed with the first Regina outfit you restyled.
I feel that this second channel will be as good as the main channel and will even have that cute, more intimate and personal touch, Ily 🖤✨
Regina’s shopping outfit would be SO on brand with her character
i really liked this video. but one piece of feedback would be that i feel like you really missed out on the chance to put janice in demonia’s
you should do more of these! i think an interesting video would be for pretty little liars, super popular show, and it would be really interesting to see how fashion these days reflects each characters personality since fashion has changed A LOT since then
Oh my god you’re so pretty
It took me a minute to not be distracted by how pretty you are!! That matching fuchsia halter/eyeshadow combo is a look! Love the vid and how at this point we have circled back to some of the popular styles of the mean girls era.
as the poor friend growing up I can absolutely say she would also have a designer bag. Her rich friends would give her the leftover bag from last season so she doesn't make the group look poor BUT nothing from this season bc she can't look "as good" either lol the traumaaaaaa
You also have to restyle the Winx girls too
I think Mean Girls on Broadway is an excellent model of what the girls would wear today. Namely, the all white outfits that they put Regina in a lot. It is definitely that "angelic" aesthetic that Regina is trying to pretend to have.
But I'm fully with you on the leather pants. She would totally hang the fact that only she can look good in them over the other girls' heads (mainly Gretchen).
it would be so cool of you styled the mean girls musical movie thats coming
I LOVED THIS! I'd be so curious how you'd restyle other characters from movies (Heathers, Jawbreaker, etc) I hope you make this a series!
After rewatching this, I feel like Karen would have the least polished look of the girls. To me she would probably have Lisa Frank inspired outfits, and outfits were that look like they would be from Justice. I also see her becoming friends with Damian because I feel like they would have similar interests
That moment when she said that the tik tok mean girl looks weren’t good 😂 that RESONATED with me
Love this! When styling plus size characters, I would love to see the plus size clothes that you find for them, instead of just straight sizes. And using plus size people as inspiration, not just for plus size characters (but especially then)
I’d love to see more videos like this one, like an old fashionable movie as a contemporary one for today
Girl I didn't know you were gonna post so soon-
You really did an amazing job renewing the personal styles so that they seem totally authentic for the characters as well as for 2021 teenage fashion!! 😍
"There's rich and there is chanel-flap bag rich and they are very different" Gurl idk why i find that so funny😂😂😂😂
I’m pretty sure that they dressed Damian the way they did because he’s plus sized :/ which sucks, so I’m hoping they cast another plus size dude and dress him better 😭
The Dior saddle bag reminds me of regina’s burn book
New Damien is SO GOO. Also Janice’s second outfit.
Plus the Dior saddle bag has the same messy ransom note/collage look as the burn book! Great video Tessa, excited for more from this channel.
1:01 Omg Jasmine's such a vibe with her Marilyn Monroe meets Regina George look.
No jokes, i think this is one of your best videos. Loved it 💞
please bring this channel back, this was such a fun video
oh my gosh you’re gorgeous! i remember looking through moderngurlz awhile back, wondering if it was a company with a ton of people behind it because it seemed like it was just one person! i’m so happy and excited to see what content you make now (: i’ve loved moderngurlz and finally getting to know more about the person behind it all is awesome!
Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE your main channel, however this format is super nice for a more casual video!! Keep it up! :)
Yay! A side channel means double the fun!! ☺️
Also I love your shirt 💖
I WAS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DO A VIDEO ON THIS and for that someone to be YOU makes it 10x better 🤩 Don’t get me wrong, the tiktok “Mean Girls” outfits aren’t bad or ugly but I do agree with you that a lot of people’s idea of recreating the Mean Girls costume design is very “let’s just throw on a ton of pink!” Which isn’t very realistic. I always watch your Moderngurlz videos (with three emojis at the end of the title of course 👏) and I especially love the style analysis ones, because they never fail to point out small details about the character development or timeline. After watching the Mean Girls video, I am very excited to see how you view the characters’ individual styles through a more modern lens. Ok, I’ll stop rambling now because I haven’t even played the video.
P.s. I am still a teenager but you and Mina Le are literally who I want to be when I grow up I look up to you two SO MUCH y’all are like my fashion knowledge fairy godmothers 🧚🏻♀️🧚🏼♀️
(Sorry if I sound creepy I’m just a huge fan of your videos)
Wow can they hire you for the season 2 of Emily in Paris? These looks are so good and the mall look for Regina just KILLED.
Gretchen's style is my favorite from the movie so I'm not surprised that I'm in love with the outfits you made for her!
Some of these outfits gave me 90s whiplash and I both love it and hate it. Especially when it came to some of the pumps! The height, the block heels, the platforms of it all.
Great video. Have you seen Buffy The Vampire Slayer? I feel like you could analyse some of Buffy’s looks
Yess I second this!! I love Buffy!!
I appreciate that this was uploaded on a Wednesday and you kept it pink💖
You can ALWAYS sit with us
I'm so happy you finally uploaded a video where we get to know you better, I'm always interested in listening to your fashion opinions. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You did amazing! I love this! Excellent first video! I’m excited to see what’s up next
finally, someone who actually see janice as an indie-grunge type
Ah you are so amazing! I've been watching Moderngurlz for a while now, honestly, you gave me some sanity in 2020 ❤ keep doing what you're doing babe!
Oh I absolutely love this! I’m a huge fashion fan but I don’t have as much knowledge on styling and understanding the meaning of different pieces. So I’m absolutely in love with ModernGurlz and this video gives me hope for this channel as well! :))
I’m so excited that you have started a 2nd channel! I love your content, modern gurlz & this more chill and chatty vibe! Here for it, Tessa! 💕
Omg I had totally forgotten Happy Bunny existed 😅I love the way you matched the cut out letters from the burn book on Regina's saddle bag! So smart ❤️
Congratulations on the new channel! I love what you did with their outfits! It was super nice to see Damian in there too.
So excited to see more of you for this side channel!!!! ModernGurlz is so fun of course, but having a more “effortless” vlog style of video in comparison to the video essay style of ModernGurlz is so exciting to me!!
This video taught me more about fashion than anything I have ever watched/read before this moment and for that, I thank you. I'm looking forward to more of these styles of videos :)
I am so excited for this channel, and I know you know but you are so pretty and I love your dark hair.
I really liked the styling you did for this video and the ones you just did with Mina.
The styling you did for Mean girls seemed a bit more appropriate for highschoolers somehow, I think of Cady as wearing crop tops, maybe a matching set (very model off duty) and I totally see the Gretchen updated outfit with the knit vest. I LOVE the Regina look with the leather pants
I would love to know what you think of Mean Girls the Musical's costumes.
Tessa I absolutely am so excited for your second channel! I love your sophisticated and chic style!!
PLEASE DO THIS FOR COFFENSIONS OF A TEENAGE DRAMA QUEEN
I'm already in love with this second channel 😍
YES, so excited for this channel ❤️
I loved this so much! Seeing Damian at the end gave me good vibes.
Glad I'm here for the new channel's first video! :) I really like your interpretations of fashion, and enjoy listening to you talk! 💖💖
I literally live for your videos, can’t wait for more of these!
