yes. Even little kids have their own taste and not everyone had the same experiences. Courtney seems to be funky/trendy, she's clearly not into the prissy/preppy look. But some little girls were, or weren't given a choice by their parents. Some people grew up in the middle of Hicksville Nowhere where it was a forty five minute drive to Kmart and other people grew up with access to a lot of department stores and/or bigger, more fashionable cities.

People showed photos of the 86 Sears catalog to claim that's what girls were really wearing. Uh, there's a reason late 20thC Sears was not known as a fashionable place to get clothes... Personally, when we could shop at a department store and I was allowed to pick out my own clothes, I wouldn't have been caught dead in the stuff seen in Sears.

Someone showed a photo of Rudy Huxtable, basically saying "this is what the doll should be dressed like". Forgetting that these two characters live in two very different worlds. One is a middle class Valley Girl, the other is the sheltered daughter of rich parents in Brooklyn.

Oh, yikes. Hicksville in the 80s was the worst. I remember my teenage cousins wearing what could have been plain but flattering dresses, with the most godawful lacey collars.

I wasn’t much more stylish, but those collars were the worst.

Oh man, I hated getting my clothes from Sears. My mom bought all my school clothes there when I was a kid and they were always super fugly.
