Get the look: 10 things I hate about you

On March 31, the iconic teen drama ’10 Things I Hate About You’, turns 20. The film – which stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Julia Stiles and the late Heath Ledger – tells the story of the battle between the Stratford sisters. House rules state that Bianca (Larisa Oleynik) isn’t allowed to date until her older sister Kat (Julia Stiles) does. But there’s a problem – Kat isn’t interested in dating, and fortunately for her, her abrasive attitude means that she doesn’t attract many boys. However, things take an unexpected turn when she crosses paths with handsome rebel Patrick (Heath Ledger).

The film has become a cult classic over the years, so we thought that we would celebrate the milestone anniversary by recreating some of the girls’ most iconic outfits. Get ready to channel your inner Stratford sisters persona!

Cardigans might seem a bit outdated now but they’re a great way to layer up (and keep warm of course!) This floral dress is perfect for spring and summer too, so you can style it just like Bianca, or you can throw on a denim jacket for when it’s a little chilly.
