While we’ve occasionally questioned Pretty Woman’s underlying message, as fashion editors we love the film’s iconic ’90s costumes (yes, even the over-the-knee boots) and gratifying shopping montage. High street retailer Zara seems to agree with us there; they recreated one of the most memorable looks in the film—the brown polka dot dress Roberts’ character Vivian wears to a polo match—in their summer collection. Or at least, that’s how we choose to see it. How often do you come across a brown and white polka dot sundress, anyway? Here, the party-ready number that caught our eye and how to recreate the complete outfit in a modern way.
