Fashion merchandising is basically learning business & economics within fashion, it’s nothing to sneeze at.

There’s tons of lawyers involved in the fashion world, I think they would be impressed. Not to mention I know someone who majored in fashion, excelled in textiles, and now works in a museum making top dollar because she can figure out exactly what time period each fabric that comes in was from.

And let's not forget that she got a 179 out of 180 for her LSAT's, that's almost a perfect score!! 🤩🤯

I want to raise my daughters to be secure in themselves like this ❤

The irony is that I've watched a few YouTube takes from lawyers on LB now, and all of them say that this scene is nonsense because law schools literally do not care what you got your undergraduate degree in.

Filming her essay, on the other hand...

She's the reason I'm a lawyer today

People REALLY be underestimating how law can be applied ANYWHERE and that history of any kind will help you with legal applications

[janettedargy]

I actually love this advisor. Once she realized Elle was serious she gave her the help without any judgement in her voice. ❤😊

Another reminder: it doesn’t matter what your undergrad major is! You can major in literally anything you want to get into law school. It doesn’t have to be pre-law or political science; law schools don’t really care. Just get good grades, and a good score. They actually really like a diversity of people and majors and interests, so it might actually help you than hurt you.

I know it's just a movie but we all need that determination and drive.

Elle Woods had a 4.0 GPA, participated in many school activities including charitable ones and got a 179/180 on her LSATS. Yet because she was blonde and enjoyed fashion everyone treated her like she was dumb.

[sanijakarki]

The fact that Elle was able to win the case due to her sheer knowledge of fashion (i e last season Prada shoes) and perm maintenance 😅😅😅😅

[henninggirl]

My cousin is a contract lawyer and this is her favorite movie, because "with that LSAT score, a 4.0 GPA, a degree in Fashion Merchadising, and president of her sorority, she didn't just get in, she's there on a full scholarship!"

"I don't need backups!" - You're destined for success when you're prepared and your mind works like that! This movie so reflected how people discount and doubt others without knowing what they're capable of.

The author of legally blonde literally went to Harvard because good shopping was near by

[CHixon]

I want to take that class: "History of Polka Dots"

[firsttimeisawjupiter]

Resee could have played Barbie back then

[patriciazandilencube]

The fashion industry is a billion dollar industry. Fashion merchandising sounds fabulous!

[pb.j.]

Uhm fashion is a multi billion dollar business and you need some lawyers who know 1-2 things about it

[MoneyMakeoverSpecialist]

I wish it continued because her advisor believed her and gave her tips to how best to apply to Harvard. You don't need backups, you need people to back you up! 😊
