Pretty in Pink is a 1986 American teen romantic comedy-drama film - directed by Howard Deutch and written by John Hughes - about teenage love and social cliques in 1980s American high schools. It is one of the John Hughes films that is commonly identified as part of the "Brat Pack" movies. Did you know that Molly Ringwald was 17 year-old when she filmed Pretty in Pink?

Film by Howard Deutch. Stills by me.
Such a great post! Wasn't she the bomb? I didn't really like the prom dress that she made. But- I did love the whole style of the film and everything else that she wore.

I didn't either...I thought The Duckman looks better! I did love all the other fashions in the movie.
