"Donnie Darko..."
"I know right."
Though not exactly a Halloween movie, (we'll call it Halloween adjacent), Donnie Darko is still a spooky classic and a perfect fall flick. It’s also brimming with 80s and 90s style inspiration.
In terms of Donnie Darko style, some fan favourites are obviously the skeleton suit + grey hoodie combo, or evil bunny Frank. But we want to take a minute to acknowledge some of the less recognizable, but equally sartorially important, style moments and characters from the movie:
Bible thumping dance coach extraordinaire Kitty Farmer:
Donnie is master of the long sleeve tee:
The most generic school uniforms of all time (side ponytail not included):
Ultimate "Cool Teacher" played by Drew Barrymore:
Similarly tortured girlfriend to Donnie, Gretchen Ross:
Honourable mentions for style inspiration go to Donnie's mom, his therapist Dr. Thurman (played by Katharine Ross!), and of course the masterfully unkempt "Grandma Death".
