Mila Kunis didn't find her '70s outfits very flattering

In an interview for the behind-the-scenes special that aired when "That '70s Show" ended, Mila Kunis gave her very frank opinion about the costumes that she had to wear on the show. "I love the wardrobe people, I adore [them] and I think that they do a fabulous job of putting outfits together. It's not their fault that these outfits are so hideous." She demonstrated her point with the outfit she had on, a polyester pantsuit with pants that she said made it up to her third rib. "It's not flattering, in my opinion," she said.

In the same special, Laura Prepon (Donna Pinciotti) explained that her own wardrobe was pretty simple because her character was meant to be a tomboy, so she was normally given jeans and a t-shirt. She felt sorry that Kunis had to wear all the complicated outfits, she added. Still, as much as she protested, the '70s seem to have worked their way into Kunis' fashion sense after so many years working on the show.

Pop Sugar put together a slideshow comparing some of Mila Kunis' casual outfits from her everyday life with some of the fashions from her character on "That '70s Show," and they do look surprisingly similar. So perhaps Kunis has come to terms with the clothes that she once found to be unflattering. According to Melina Root's Instagram account, the costume designer returned to do the wardrobes for "That '90s Show" as well. Kunis is back for the sequel series, so she has a whole new decade of fashion to explore. Hopefully she doesn't hate it quite as much.

She was born in the early 1980's in Russia. So as a child she was not exposed to the American 1970's at all or how ugly the clothing was. This is of course, my opinion but I dare say that a vast majority of people who lived in that era would say about the same thing. It did not matter if the person was rich or poor, their age or race, the people back then wore ugly clothes. Designer wear, same thing.

Not all of it was horrible but the majority of it was. Probably Kunis didnt see much of The Brady Bunch or other 1970's programming. So she had little frame of reference.
