What comes to your mind first when we take the name Stranger Things? Millie Bobby Brown indeed! But apart from that, what fans loved the most in this show was the 80s theme. The pop culture saga is a love letter to that era when people weren’t acquainted with the modern world that surrounds us today. Depicting the various cinematic, musical, and fashion nods in this horror drama, Duffer Brothers made the entire experience enriching. Now one of the most favorite brands of all time has joined hands with the show and has brought back that nostalgic vibe for fans.
