’It was so good, I almost peed my pants!’
If you’re feeling a little nostalgic, we have good news for you: you can now buy one of Pretty Woman’s most memorable dresses from ASOS.
No, sadly it’s not THAT red opera dress, but it’s just as iconic. We’re referring, of course, to the one Vivian, aka Julia Roberts wears when she picks up Richard Gere on Hollywood Boulevard.
You know the one: white cami top and short blue shirt interlinked with a silver hoop, which she wears with thigh high vinyl boots. Well, she was a lady of the night after all.
Now fashion brand Hunza G is selling an exact replica in collaboration with ASOS, called the ‘iconic mini beach dress’.

On hearing the news, people have fallen into two camps, those who are well up for recreating one of their favourite movie looks, and those who think it’s all a bit wrong.

Meanwhile, others commented, 'This feels wrong' and 'oh yeah fancy dress #escort'.
While it was originally released in that iconic blue colour, as well as red and black, only the black version remains, but we think we prefer that version anyway.
If you want to make the look a little more, shall we say day friendly, pair it with some white sneakers and a soft trench coat.
Now in the words of Vivian, ‘Big mistake. Big. Huge. I have to go shopping now.’
