Stacy and Clinton Break Down the Wild Style of Overboard

In this episode of Why’d They Wear That?, Stacy London and Clinton Kelly dive into the gloriously excessive fashion of Overboard, starting with Goldie Hawn’s unforgettable yacht wardrobe. From enormous nautical shoulders and diamond brooches in her hair to ultra-high-cut swimsuits, black-and-white prints, silver lamé robes, and perfectly coordinated accessories, Joanna’s early looks are pure 1987 extravagance. They also obsess over Katherine Helmond’s wildly maximalist Edith Mintz, whose wardrobe includes huge shoulders, dramatic collars, gold lamé, fascinators, and even matching accessories for her dog, Shiitake. Once Joanna loses her memory, the fashion shifts dramatically into softer hair, minimal makeup, chambray shirts, and a much more relaxed suburban look - giving Stacy and Clinton plenty to discuss about how costume helps track her changing identity. Along the way, they debate velvet on a yacht, the practicality of extremely high-cut bathing suits, diamond brooches as hair accessories, spray-tan disasters from the What Not to Wear days, and whether Overboard might be one of the most perfectly costumed comedies of the ’80s.
