Episode synopsis
As a teenager, Myf's mum wouldn't allow her to partake in the biggest fashion trend gripping her peers - a perm. Looking back, Myf now realises her mum might have had a point, but at the time Myf thought it was 'nice'. In Nice and Trendy, Myf explores some of the fashions that she and the nation got swept up with in the '80s. In an attempt to understand just why we got caught up in these sometimes dubious fashions, Myf talks to some unlikely trendsetters including George Negus and her perm idol, Craig McLachlan. The conclusion of the episode sees Myf living out a long held teenage fashion dream. Also features interviews with one of Australia's best known hairdressers, Edward Beale; Jenny Bannister - a fashion designer who has created looks for Tina Turner, Kylie Minogue and Naomi Campbell; pioneer of Australian style and internationally acclaimed artist and designer, Jenny Kee, and fashion forecaster with over 20 year's experience, Tony Bannister.
