her hair in the 80's was fabulous.
Her hair in The Breakfast Club looked awesome with her bone structure.
Yeah & many girls got her exact hairdo at salons
I had the same hairdo in the 80s and a similar hair color and people used to actually call me Molly (one of my many nicknames) and ask me for my autograph…🖋️✨
Don't worry Molly - we all cried when we saw that prom dress in "Pretty in Pink". I saw it in the theater & actually yelled "Y'all made that gorgeous vintage prom dress into THAT?!!"
yeah, I was sitting in front of you. Actually, you talked all the way through the movie. Really annoying and self absorbed. Thought you were so damned witty, too. You weren't. Just loud.
And your eating habits - damn! - all the open mouthed slurping and chewing and lip smacking of triple-buttered popcorn, raisonettes, good 'n' plenty and Diet Coke was disgusting.
I was horrified as well
Omg my friend and I saw PIP at a local theater about two weeks ago too. We yelled and were laughing so hard when that part came on we got shushed by our partners. Hilarious! 😂
hated that dress - barf
and the worst part was that the original dress was SO pretty!
Oh that is so relieving to know she hated that pink prom tent I mean dress as well. The polka dots, lace and potato sack waist was just heartbreaking. Still a great movie!
Yes, it was a TERRIBLE DRESS!!!!
It's the waistline that gets me. I can work with anything if only they'd done something else with the boxy shape. 😢
Yes…hated that dress it was awful!
The designer that did her prom dress in Pretty In Pink did her character dirty. I remember really being into fashion as a young girl & loved her character because she was so relatable in the movie. When she came out in the prom dress for the big reveal, I was so disappointed. But Molly Ringwald is a phenomenal actress so it didn't matter.
And the designer made some bangers in Streets of Fire and The Rocketeer. I’m not sure what happened here.
I agree; that dress is also cruel to the character Molly played, because she's made it herself and aspires to be a designer. And then we get that hideous dress. Made me sad as a viewer.
I was disappointed in that dress, too. Her character would have made something better.
I like the choker part. Maybe if they did without the puffy sleeves it would've looked better. But at the same time, I feel like it oddly kind of fits because she's an aspiring designer and doesn't have much money, so in a way it shows she worked with what she had. ❤
What's the word for those diamond cutouts that are supposed to give the waist that hourglass shape? I'm an idiot and maybe I'm wrong, I think the dress was boxy in that way?
So Molly hoards clothes that she might wear every 20 years and shopping is her super-power. Love that!!
I so agree about the pretty in pink prom dress. I was so underwhelmed when it was revealed ,it looked sloppy.
Yeah, I never got it about that dress especially for the character.
Glad that she feels the same way…even cried. I would have too! 😊
Especially when the vintage dress was so cute before she ruined it!
It waa supposed to be a dress that a teenager made.
@@pamelaolson5614 Then somebody grossly underestimated teenagers, because they would do a way better job than that or if they couldn’t they would have to buy a nice already made. There are some seriously talented teenagers out there when it comes to fashion design. That’s been the case for decades, many decades, now.
That look from The Breakfast Club was so sunning, and yes timeless.
Im so happy that she didnt like the dress either. Literally thought the same thing she did
I agree with her, the dress in Pretty in Pink was not what I expected her character to wear.
they should make an alternate version, with her wearing a different dress, maybe using AI
Molly is a true icon of my generation! She still looks amazing!
You Molly are my 80,s you brought me a lot of Joy watching your movies
She knows what looks good on her. I'm glad she has made peace with the Pretty in Pink dress, it's iconic. Love her.
The movie is iconic, the dress is forever a mystery. 😂
That movie was a mess and it sucked what rich guy and his friends attend public school with poor people and the ending was a reshoot andrew mccarthy had a stupid wig because he was filming a war movie and his hair was shaved and molly was sick with the flu that movie was all over the place and the editing was pretty bad
@Yoyomu205 It happens a lot, actually, that a school district has good programs and test scores so wealthy people willingly send their kids there whether they have to or not. Sometimes, those same schools also have poorer neighborhoods within their boundaries. You see a real difference between the two groups within the student body. I suppose it is meant to be character building? 🤷
@@cc1k435 And i always wondered why the socks from the outsiders who were rich attend public school and how was ponyboy able to go to that school since he was so poor it didn't make sense the socks were suppossed to be in a private school
@Yoyomu205 That's a good example, actually. Tulsa in the 1960s wouldn't have been a very big city, really, and there wouldn't have been multiple school districts for the white kids, anyway. Native American and black kids might have had different situations going on, but that's a whole other bunch of societal issues.
She's an icon! I love hearing her thoughts & that she's back to the red hair. It suits her so well!
She looks great.
I wanted to be Molly in high school. I loved her style.
I willingly ventured into Julie’s, a truly terrible shop, just to find clothes that were reminiscent of Molly’s clothes from her movies. I haven’t forgiven upper management for their intrusive dressing room policies, but I loved the outfits
SHE IS A LEGEND!
Molly stayed a clean classy icon. Will always love and respect her.
As a teenager who absolutely ADORED Molly, I have to say that she is still a natural beauty and thank goodness for an actress who looks her age!
She looks amazing, so refreshing to see.
Uh...that woman is pumped full of restalyne
Now THIS IS AN ICON!! I'm a Millinieal but have Gen X siblings and all of Molly's movies were in heavy rotation in our home. Freaking LOVE HER!
Id wear the skirt and boots from "Breakfast Club" today.
Molly just keeps getting prettier and prettier! I love how down to earth she's always seemed.💓
back in 1986 she was filming Fresh Horses in Cincinnati around Xmas and I was shopping at Saks 5th Avenue with my mum and I bumped into Molly Ringwald while she was shopping at the Lancome counter. I actually saw her father first. He was up on the 2nd floor and he is blind so I remembered that and then we spotted Molly at the counter. I just smiled. I didn''t gush because I didn't want to disturb her figuring she was there with her family.
I am in the Molly Ringwood club of hoarding clothes for 20 years. They come back in style, believe you me.
Molly Ringwald has always been a beauty and such a talented actress.
The DRESS! It was an ‘80s style with a ‘thinking outside the box’ twist. I believe it’s what they (director, producer) envisioned an aspiring teenage designer would create .
Exactly!
It was perfect!
She is so iconic!! Love Molly, she had my heart since I saw PiP in the 80’s. The scene where Blaine walks into the record store…omgosh, u know the scene! Still takes my breath away!
This is a true icon; loved this fashion trip down memory lane.
Did anyone notice that Molly was basically wearing the same silhouette for the interview that she wore to the Temptest premiere in 1982?! I giggled when she was describing the dress.
SAME!! I was just about to say the same exact thing until I read your comment. With the exception of the premiere dress being all white, it is literally the exact same dress silhouette.
I get what she’s saying about the Pretty in Pink dress. However, the story portrays her dad, who made very little money, purchasing the one dress for her; the other polka dot dress from her friend. She had to piece the two together. The end result was what I would expect the prom dress to look like. Could it have been better? Perhaps. But I think it’s memorable, adorable, and iconic.
It fit the story. I recall liking the dress as a teenager.
@selecttravelvacations7472 Same here. The dress looked great on her, and went along with her character.
Loved it!
I know Sixteen Candles is not PC in today's culture but the iconic 80's hats were worth a mention.
I loved Molly’s hair in The Breakfast Club! I had short hair all the way through high school with Molly as idol. How on earth did all that time pass so quickly?
80’s style ICON. Still “IN”!
The 80s blunt and full bob is baaaaack! So glad
That purple dress was stunning on her!
“I felt very cool.” That’s because you have always been and will always be very cool.
Molly Ringwald for me still has - from her films- magic as a girl, as a representative of something important magical fun stylish aspirational - what these days is called iconic. She still gives me something to dream about and I like that.
I have always loved her 🤗💙💜💚
Me an her are about the same age. An to this day I still watch the breakfast club an sixteen candles an pretty in pink. The songs are still my favorite. I related to your character very much. An when I want to think about my high school days I just watch her movies. Thank you to her for that. Your still a beautiful person I believe inside too.
Molly was every 80’s girls role model! I watched every movie and knew every line word by word .It’s so cool that my daughters watch her movies now and still can relate! The 80’S movies are a true statement for that decade! I even painted my bedroom pink and got the pink phone! The end of Pretty in Pink was every girls dream come true ! Jake Ryan!
I thought Jake Ryan was sixteen candles?! I think Blaine, the "not a name it's an appliance " is her love interest in PIP 😆
Andrew McCarthy!!!
I have always loved her short hairstyles. I used to color my hair red once a year just for a change. I loved all the movies she played in.
I actually loved her hair in the 80s, and maybe just as much even now. Fashion-wise, I've reached that point in life where I'll do what I want. 😂
WILL ALWAYS LOVE HER 💖
YES THE BREAKFAST CLUB!
I just love her and always have. Miss the 80s.
Totally agree about the Breakfast Club being classic
Love the dress she's being interviewed in!
What a fun revisiting of Molly's styles...still so stylish. Can you imagine being a daughter of hers borrowing items (like that purse Molly mentioned)? ❤ You are cool, Molly Ringwald! ❤
Love Molly Ringwald so much! 💗
I love her! Always have. Breakfast club one of my favorite movies ever! She’s so well spoken when talks about the fashion ❤
My childhood favorite movie and I also HATED the dress.
I wonder if anyone DIDN’t hate the dress?😄
Even as a little girl, I wasn't impressed. Who was responsible for that anyway?
@@christinacampbell5952One, I never think pink is flattering on a redhead. Two - that dress looks like a pink tube sock!
@@keepcharlottecountygreen150 It definitely should've been form fitting. Maybe pink and red.
She did this serious movie wity Andrew Mccarthy and a young Viggo Mortenson the movie sucked it was called Fresh Horses but her acting was good she acted well being serious she could of done more serious roles but hollywood didn't like her and chose Julia Roberts for pretty woman because the producer didn't want molly because he felt she was bland not pretty enough and couldn't act
This was so fun to watch! I love what Molly said about how the most important things is how the clothes make you feel - powerful, pretty etc. A really good way to determine whether you should buy something or not.
I just love Molly. I am a child of that Pretty In Pink era, and I admire her so much. Those movies are so iconic to me. I am thrilled as a grown up to be following her on social media.
Molly dresses classy ! Love her style. ❤
IT'S MOLLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Molly knows fashion - refreshing🏆
6:22 I think I can speak for us all: SJP’s dress is hilarious. Molly’s is *chef’s kiss*.
The purple w/her bangs - stunning!
A+ video!
LOVE IT! Thank you so much for explaining and describing the fashion choices!
Actually going to watch Sixteen Candles here in less than ten minutes!
She is one of my favorite actresses from the 80's..love this interview. Thanks for all of the great memories 😅
Beautiful ❤❤❤❤
I hated the prom dress too...
I loved your hair in the 80s and loved all your movies. You'll always be my favourite 80s actress Molly. Thanx for showing us your beautiful dresses.❤❤
I’m 56. And i love Molly. Every movie. I loved in the times that she and countless other actors,I was the same age.
We miss you molly. Please come back 🤗🤗
Always loved Molly Ringwald, amazing actress.
Molly is such a part of our lives. I for one love ❤her!
She is absolutely beautiful and she is such an icon!!!! She literally made all awkward teenage girls in the 80s feel it was gonna be ok and sure enough it was when you held her up as a role model for yourself!..another one of her super powers id say!!!.... She was a gift to us from the heavens!!... and she still looks like Molly and hasnt morphed into some caricature of herself which im sooo happy about!! She deserves any kind of resurgence!! ❤
I totally agree about the Pretty in Pink dress - I was 13 when that movie came out and loved the movie, but the clothes, not so much (way too much floral) and particularly that dress.
This was so much fun to watch. I luv her. And her new show is great!
I love her so much! She will always be my favorite! She’s the absolute coolest🩷 I wish I could own her entire wardrobe from Pretty in Pink!
The 80´s most iconic girl on big screen: Molly Ringwald.
She became the favorite of anyone who got hooked by The Breakfast Club and Pretty in Pink.
Thanks John Hughes!
Love you Molly! I identified so much with Andie, growing up in the 80s. She had such great style!
I have always adored Molly 💕
How sweet she is. . Everything about the 80's was Wonderful!!!
Love this so much!
Love this!! ❤❤❤
I completely adore everything about Molly Ringwald, so stylish and an icon for a lot of us! Actually named my daughter after her and she turned out to be a strong and beautiful redhead, go figure! Crazy story but my brother ended up flying her as a pilot one day so I’ll take that connection! Just love her ❤
I ove molly she was my idol when i was a kid !! She still is !! ❤ her.
What an ICON
I bow before you Molly!!! 🤩🎀💕
I’ve had an active crush on this lady since the 80’s. Absolutely ❤
❤I love Molly Ringwald she throws me back to my teen days❤how I miss my 80s❤😢
Interesting comments from her about the skirt from TBC. Totally agree. Loved that skirt and thought it totally worked for the character
Agreed.
Like most young girls/teens in the 80’s, Molly was THE “it” girl. We all wanted to be as feminine yet slightly edgy and fashion forward without looking like we were trying too hard as she was in our magazines and on our movie screens. Her hair! Her face was so fresh at the time. When everything was blonde blue eyes Barbie doll, she was this enigma we couldn’t take our eyes off of. And come on, the characters are ICONIC. My sister and I went to see her in concert a few years back. We sat centre stage about 3 rows back. It sounds so silly and it took me completely off guard, but I had this weird reality bending moment when she came out onto the stage. She was truly lovely and gracious and so down to earth. She will always have a special place in our hearts. And, totally unpopular opinion, but while the dress WAS odd and slightly disappointing when it was revealed, it, to my mind, made sense for her character and where she was at and it really has become yet another iconic look from that time. So, kinda a win, really.
she is so well spoken
More Molly please ❤️🔥
Such a beautiful woman...and her fashion choices were superb! Love it!
wow Molly you look great. So happy for you
She’s so pretty❤❤ and always has been 😊
Just finished Fued. Amazing!
LOVE the print on what she's wearing now!
Anyone else now want a closet tour with Molly? She’s iconic.
Love her, some great looks there 😍💓
Molly is Awesome ❤
Love her. Iconic movie wardrobe
She always looked good as a redhead.
She would wear a lot of flowers and pastels in a lot of her other movies.
Love that she saves everything, a clothes hoarder!!!😊😊
You are the Best in all the time doesnt matter the dresses ❤❤❤❤
I love her!!! Icon!!! ❤❤❤❤
LOVE HER
I really enjoyed this. You are eternally beautiful Molly Ringwald! 😀
Thank you, Molly. Your outfit in the Breakfast Club, sent me down a journey of long skirts. Even today, I love my pencil skirts all thanks to you! ❤
Molly could walk out in a burlap and pull it off!!!! I have watched pretty much everything she has ever been in!! I’ve always loved her movies and who she portrays in them, I loved her in the stand she did an incredible job!!! ❤
