Forget the plot -- some movies are best remembered for the costumes.
At least, that's how we feel. We appreciate a well-directed film with good cinematography as much as the next film buffs, but some movies capture a style era so perfectly, we can't help but leave inspired to emulate the characters. Below, we've rounded the films with fashion we'll never forget... even if we can't remember anything else about them.

They were only 12, but these girls had some enviable outfits, not to mention bra-stuffing tips.
