11 Reasons Sandy From Grease Is Still the Ultimate Fashion Icon

As the Summer days drift away, Sandy remembers the ultimate nighttime essential: a sweater! It keeps her warm as she snuggles with Danny on a breezy beach, right before the two say goodbye.

While her new friends wear matching pink jackets, Sandy shows up at school in a full skirt and collared shirt. She sticks with her feminine style for the majority of the film, refusing to blend in with everyone else.

Wearing the same thing as someone else? Not a problem for this girl! Even in her cheerleading uniform, Sandy catches the eye of both Danny and Tom Chisum, proving it's not always about what you wear, but rather your confidence when you wear it.

For her date, Sandy opts for a trusted styling hack we still turn to today: layering a collared shirt underneath a sweater.

While many ladies go dark for dates, Sandy shows up to the diner in a bright yellow dress. It's an eye-catching choice — so much so that it is impossible for the two to stay hidden from Danny's group of friends.

Breaking up is hard to do, but even harder? Returning all your gifts. After a big blowout at the drive-in, Sandy immediately gives back (OK, throws back) Danny's ring, wasting no time whatsoever.

When it comes to picking out a dress for the dance, Sandy finds the winning combination: something stylish but flowy, allowing her to rule the floor with some impressive moves.

While everyone else was watching Danny jump, we were focused on Sandy's glasses! Not everyone can pull off such a matchy-matchy look, but she manages to do it with ease.

Sure, she has some hesitation, but when she really wants to make jaws drop, Sandy opts for this all-black look, pairing it with some red mules. The costume became iconic, with many stars — including Gigi Hadid — rocking the outfit for Halloween.

She could have easily rocked a pink number at the end of the film, but Sandy sticks with something more classic: a black leather jacket. She matches her boyfriend — in a noncheesy way — and looks fierce flying off into the sky.
