In the 1987 comedy Overboard, Goldie Hawn made jaws drop in her high-cut thong bathing suits and splashy accessories as Joanna Stayton, an incredibly rich and unlikable heiress who falls off her yacht and gets amnesia. A carpenter (Hawn’s real-life love Kurt Russell) convinces her she is his wife to give her a taste of what regular shmegular life is like. Leave the snobby attitude behind but embrace the ’80s glamour with these three takes on Hawn’s over-the-top Overboard style.
