The Pat Benatar look- eldergay thread
Robert Guerrero 
Was this short hair, dramatic eye, leggings look something that she developed or was she copying someone else? It was pretty cool, she looks so tough. Did girls in your high school dress like this?

I think they copied Pat’s look for Ursa, the villainess in the first two Superman movies.

Superman II was being filmed when Pat's first album came out. The Ursa look is coincidental, but really funny in retrospect. I always liked that moment in Fast Times at Ridgemont High where two Pat fans are fighting over the same pair of pants.

Pat's look was very famous and much copied. There's a moment in Fast times at Ridgemont High when Jennifer Jason Leigh and Phoebe Cates discuss that three different girls at the high school all dress and cut their hair like Pat Benatar.

She was rare for her era because she was really considered a genuine rocker--most women singing stars of the late Seventies and early Eighties were considered more pop-oriented, like ONJ and Sheena Easton, or more dance-music oriented.
She was such a big deal in the early and mid Eighties, and then she was over very quickly.

In high school I remember a lot of girls wearing their hair like Brian Setzer of The Stray Cats. I don't recall too many Pat Benetar clones.

Pat had the first proper video played after The Buggles “Video Killed the Radio Star” video launched MTV.
