Justine Bateman at the 87 Emmy Awards

Full story here

Oh, God - not Justine and her "misery" again.

Is that a Herve Leger dress? They were very popular and at the time, expensive. She was probably thinking - I have a rocking body and I'm going to wear this fucking fashionable dress! Where's the problem, OP?

They didn't have Spanx back then. That's pretty much the only problem. Well, and the hose are atrocious, but that was trendy back then.

Remember when young ladies wore hosiery? Instead of exposing vast quantities of their nude chicken-skin flesh?

Mother says that back in the day, even common streetwalkers and harlots wore hosiery.

Sigh.

She was thinking she was hot and she was right.

She was thinking this is 1987 and I'm going to wear a popular look to an event.

I think she looks tremendous!

The crucifix earrings add a demure, subtle touch of religiosity...

rocking body? she has a gut and her hose has ladders all over it

She was trying to outdo Tina Yothers

Her pantyhose did not have ladders/runs. They were shiny.

so 1980s and I love it.

I've always liked her

AMAZING!!!! I was 17 and 1987 and she was white hot!!! Unfortunately she didn’t age well 😔

She was beautiful.

she looked pregnant

This gave me a rush of nostalgia and made me homesick for that time.

OP Is a jealous Tracey Gold posting from 1987.

This is why Michael J . Fox is a faggot .

Aw, she looks fantastic.

What the hell is going on with these memory lane posts? I would actually be really curious to know who OP is and why he keeps posting about the most specific 1980s stuff

I don't get the issue with memory lane posts. That's one thing I like about DL - they often dig up things that only I thought I remembered.

she looks fabulous

I'm pretty sure she wasn't thinking that some obsessive queen would dredge up the photos in the year 2020 to bitch and moan about her dress.

I remember someone on here saying that someone they knew worked with her in the 80’s and she used to say “fag” all the time, and if that is true, then judging her dress is fair game. She seems like a bitch anyway and looks like shit today.

[quote]I'm pretty sure she wasn't thinking that some obsessive queen would dredge up the photos in the year 2020 to bitch and moan about her dress.

I think she wrote about it incl. pics in her book. So I don't imagine she'd be too upset with dear OP.

Looks like she has a bloated stomach - probably excessive gas.

Let it out, Justine.

We’re all friends here.

Clearly, that was meant to say ‘Blech’.

That was a really hot outfit for the time. So 80s!

Those of you mocking this outfit mustn't have been around back then, because if you were you'd know that what she was wearing was very fashionable in 1987. That was a very popular style at the time.

With a Phyllis Diller hairdo and a body built for sin Ms Bateman dressed to impress. Unfortunately no one told her that the cheap streetwalker/Nanny Fine look was out that year.

She really was hot.

[quote]her hose has ladders all over it

That was the style, it was punk chic and very popular.

Justine has said that Mr. Blackwell and others excoriated her for the dress and it was one of the reasons she gave up on the whole Hollywood scene, and to this day she'll be reading something and all of a sudden there will be yet another nasty quote about how she was an evil slut whore harlot hagwitch for wearing the dress.

To still be remembering something so inconsequential all these decades later is truly bizarre, it's no wonder she's sick of it.

She looks great, OP. Better than some of the shit that's on the red carpet nowadays.

Ladder on her hose? OP is too young to have seen very shiny hose. She looks great, and she had no shapewear.

R10 has no idea what a woman’s body is actually like.

She was slaying hunty

This was soooooo before liposuction. She looks great.

She has a beer belly
