Buffy (the Appropriately Dressed) Vampire Slayer

Tuesday was the first time that I watched Buffy, since it when it originally came one. And I must say that I really enjoyed it! Even though it was filled with clichés, which I think made the show even more enjoyable. But, the thing that I made me really love the show is that how Buffy dressed appropriately to kick evil’s butt. As we discussed in class, if I were an heroine, I would need my hair to be tied back and away from face and I would need to have clothes that I could move in and be able to kick butt in without worrying about a wardrobe malfunction. I feel like some producers never really understand the fact hair in face and clothes that could cause a wardrobe malfunction is something that true heroines really need to be concerned with. Even though, I know that ‘sex sells’ and they want the heroines to be sexy as possible, to me it’s just not logical. Women can still be sexy will kicking butt in an appropriately dressed outfit and the producers/directors need to realize that and start making changes. I want to see more Lara Crofts, Buffys, Alices, and Selene (in the movie not the comic book) dressed heroines.
