From crisp cropped shirts to high-waisted denim, the 1987 classic Dirty Dancing is a showstopper when it comes to fashion.

Margot Robbie’s ’60s styling in Once Upon A Time… In Hollywood

The rave reviews of Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon A Time… In Hollywood are thanks in part to the film’s stylistic talents. The groovy, wacky outfits of the counterculture environment of the 1960s include double denim, brown leather, a multitude of floral shirts and of course, go-go boots.

Margot Robbie, playing Sharon Tate, caused a stir with this chic, classy outfit – a white A-line skirt shied away by a black polo neck, bouncy blonde hair and finally the clean mid-calf go-go boots.
