The year was 2003 and the cinematic world was riding high. High on what, you ask? From My Big Fat Greek Wedding to Love Actually to Something’s Gotta Give and so many more; it was the era of chart-topping and movie marathon-worthy romantic comedies. It would be an absolute disservice to leave out the iconic How To Lose a Guy in 10 days from this list. In fact, the stunning Kate Hudson dress from the climax alone awards the film the top spot.

Hollywood films, especially rom-coms, feature some eye-popping, jaw-dropping, and traffic-stopping outfits that are forever etched in your memories. There’s Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman, Jennifer Garner in 13 Going on 30, and the many, many exquisite outfits displayed in Devil Wears Prada and Clueless. Kate Hudson’s simple, yet elegant attire definitely deserves more than a mention. And that is exactly what Netflix and the audience bestow on it.

Directed by Donald Petrie, the film also stars the ruggedly handsome Matthew McConaughey alongside the beautiful Kate Hudson. The film is adapted from a book of the same name written by Jeannie Long and Michele Alexander. The film follows Andie Anderson (Hudson) and Benjamin Barry (McConaughey) as they both go to extreme lengths to prove themselves at their respective jobs. While Barry tries to make Anderson fall hopelessly in love with him, she uses the classic “clingy girl” tropes to get him to dump her.
