Literally any show can be improved by adding more older women. Not many know this, but it’s true.

Every single outfit worn by Emily Sanderson in A Night at the Roxbury (1999) - a short gifset with written essay as a part of something I would like to call "Underrated Fashion Moments"

aka "molly shannon is such a bae in this movie even when she was poised to be annoying, and that's thanks to her beauty and fashion fr"

In all seriousness, I felt that the film was so underrated that its excellent costume design tend to go unnoticed. You have the Butabi brothers wear their famed suits and complementary-yet-matching shirts and then the girls they were interested in have sleek and sexy black metallic numbers, and then you have Emily (played by Molly Shannon) who stands out with her choice of outfits.

A little intro to who Emily is: she's the college-aged daughter of a lamp store businessman who's very attracted to Steve Butabi (one of two sons of a fake flower store salesman), who in return wasn't totally into her. Their respective parents want to have them married so that their businesses would merge into "the first plant-lamp emporium". Now, Steve and his brother Doug want to party, get with hot women, and go inside the hottest club - The Roxbury - and matters like Emily are a detriment to their plan. Oh, about Emily - she may be a sweet girl-next-door-type, but she's very horny. And also controlling then too focused on business and appearances. Oh well...

The important thing to know is that she wasn't in the proximity of a club, so her outfits tended to be plainer than what the other ladies in the film would wear in places like the Roxbury. However, her various outfits give out cues to what her character is like: she usually wears black with hints of white and red, but whenever she works at the lamp store, she wears yellow dresses and accessories. A ray of sunshine with a hidden desire and darkness kinda gal. Also, when she was actively pining for Steve before they were eventually forced to be wed, she would wear outfits with hints of flowers as seen in the first three frames as a nod to the Butabi business. The only time she wore another color was when she had her wedding (which went haywire to say the least), and that was it I guess. Also, she did wear some silver jewelry all throughout - pretty understated compared to others. It's interesting to see how these present her eventual nature once we see her settle within the film's narrative... when you get to it.

Making this gifset has made me realize the genius behind these clothes and how they could tell subtle hints (at least I'm aware of). I didn't even realize that Mona May, who is most well-known for her work in Clueless, handled costume design for this movie until recently! Hopefully, you can consider this study on an underrated part of May's repertoire and probably as future inspiration for some cute outfits at least. And when I have more time, I could go into some more specifics for each outfit...
