About the Book:

Ever since its 1995 debut, Clueless has reigned as a pop culture and fashion phenomenon. From Cher’s yellow plaid skirt suit to Dionne’s signature hats, every look helped define a generation and solidified fashion as a key character in the story. Now, in this richly illustrated volume written with fashion journalist Monica Corcoran Harel, May takes readers behind the seams of her most instantly recognizable designs.


Published by Insight Editions to celebrate the film’s three-decade legacy, The Fashion of Clueless features exclusive behind-the-scenes photos, costume sketches, and new interviews with key cast and creatives, including Alicia Silverstone and director Amy Heckerling. Whether sourcing vintage finds or pulling from Paris runways, May’s work brought a new level of glamour and individuality to the teen comedy—and set a new standard for fashion in film.



The Fashion of Clueless helps readers channel their own “main character energy,” making it a must-have for fashion lovers, movie buffs, and Clueless superfans alike.
