Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

(Don't mind my current fashion obsession here...)

I'm guessing that full slips (never worn any kind of slip, full or half, underneath clothes) are somewhat out of vogue and seem grandmotherly (the "Well, my mother shops at..." comment from the Macy's clerk made me feel dreadfully old), but I always think of this when I think of slips, and not much is hotter than that.

Well, I guess I'd need to see Salma Hayek in one to be sure.

A quick read of that link made me wonder how Teflon and Butterfield 8 were connected.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Me too!

Oooh, thanks for the tip, shrift.

You're welcome! It was on my agenda for this morning.

Man, '80s is retro already? Depeche Mode and The Breakfast Club were formative for me, so I guess it's cool if my uncool has become cool again. More people to get my cultural references!

Thrive to spite them

Some store, maybe Target, used Baby Got Back to sell backpacks for school but changed the lyrics so they were about back packs.

Maybe that's where they heard the song.

Aw, man. That's just wrong. I guess I'll have to keep using 'do you know all the words to "Every Rose Has Its Thorn"?' as a way of locating my cohort.

...and now not only am I earwormed for Every Rose but I can't get the video out of my head either.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Early 90s music might be tagging along with that.

The '80s didn't really end (or if you prefer, the '90s didn't really begin) until Nirvana broke through and what had been "alternative" became mainstreamed.
