A reboot of the classic 1988 rom-com Working Girl is underway, and Selena Gomez is reportedly set to produce it (no word on if she will star in it, though). In the original film, Melanie Griffith plays Tess, a Staten Island secretary who impersonates her power suit-wearing boss Katharine (Sigourney Weaver) in a ploy to advance her career. The film’s oh-so-eighties fashion is one of its most memorable aspects. Tess navigates the workplace setting while sporting chic skirt suits—with big shoulder pads, of course!—paired with chunky sneakers and sleek briefcases.
With a 2020s reboot of the film on its way, though, we have to wonder about the fashion. We don’t know yet what decade in which the film will take place. The 1980s boardroom attire is such a signature aspect of the film, but it just so happens that cool, stylish suiting is trending on both the red carpets and on the runways this season. Should the new Working Girl take place in the 2020s, the protagonist will have plenty of options for a modern, maybe even sexy, take on a professional wardrobe.
