The look is a near-perfect replica of Drescher’s outfit seen in the pilot episode ofThe Nannyas well as promotional photos. The show, which ran from 1993 to 1999, starred Drescher as a makeup saleswoman who is hired as a nanny for a widowed Broadway producer’s three children.

Along with her outgoing and no-nonsense personality (and nasal-y voice), the character of Fran Fine became synonymous with her over-the-top sense of style.
