NYC Gen Zers are head over high heels for Fran Fine’s style — and Fran Drescher weighs in on ‘The Nanny’ trend resurgence
NY Post
The flashy girl from Flushing — the nanny named Fran — is being named Gen Z’s most haute heroine.
It’s The Nanny-core couture, baby!
“She unapologetically extra, glamorous and sexy,” Charissa Mattera, 26, from Bay Ridge, told The Post of Fran Drescher’s role as the irrepressibly fabulous Fran Fine in the 1990s sitcom “The Nanny.”
A fashion plate with chichi taste, the fictional Ms. Fine stole the spotlight of nearly every scene in luxe, look-at-me finery since the show debuted in 1993.
Her colorful ‘fits and skimpy miniskirts often disrupted the beige blandness of the Upper East Side Sheffield residence, where she worked and wowed as a live-in sitter for a rich Broadway producer and his three kids.
And now, almost 30 years since the series ended in 1999, twenty-somethings, including A-listers like Sabrina Carpenter (who was born in ‘99), are reviving her saucy vibe with the Fran Fine fashion fad.
