“You can’t sit with us,” “On Wednesdays we wear pink…” and the list goes on for the most iconic moments of 2004 film Mean Girls. Featuring some of today’s biggest stars like Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams and Amanda Seyfried as the Plastics, the movie was a style pioneer in the early ’00s with pieces like pleated miniskirts, high heels, Converse shoes and more.
She’s the Man (2006)

The Devil Wears Prada (2006)
Finishing off the list is The Devil Wears Prada, still a favorite to many fashion lovers. A character based on Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, Meryl Streep plays the role of Miranda Priestly who hires journalist Andy (Anne Hathaway) to take on an intensive, fast-paced fashion job as her secretary.
