3 Menswear Looks Inspired By The Breakfast Club

No surprise, but John Hughes movies remain our pop culture comfort food. A little bit of teen angst, a little bit of romance–it’s the perfect pick-me-up or sob-along-with. Naturally, we love The Breakfast Club. In honor of the classic ’80s flick, here are updated versions of the outfits worn by the three main male characters. Bender’s rebellious look–plaid shirt and fingerless leather gloves–is still timeless, while jock Andrew’s varsity jacket is totally on-trend for this season. We even took studious Brian’s “my mom picked out my outfit” look and made it a little more chill with khaki jeans and bold blue high-tops.
