Aeon Flux
Æon Flux is the love interest of Trevor Goodchild in MTV’s animated series, Aeon Flux. Described as an mysterious assassin and secret agent, she constantly tries to destroy Trevor and his plans (sometimes dying at the end of every mission).
Joe Normal
Joe Normal is an animated character from MTV’s Liquid Television created by Stephen Holman. He has been brought to attention recently because of a viral internet meme.
He is known as the impulsive, anxious and irritable teenage boy who struggles with chronic embarrassment and ticks. He is quite relatable, And absolutely my favorite Liquid Television character. His skit usually consists of him talking about his family and classifying them and himself as normal.
Trevor Goodchild
Trevor Goodchild is the antagonist in MTV’s animated series Aeon Flux. Described as an morally ambiguous villain, he is occasionally but ultimately stopped by Aeon Flux, a secret agent he has a soft spot for.
Joan of Arc from Clone High
Joan of Arc is the teenage literal clone of the original Joan of Ark in the MTV animated series, Clone High. It was a early 2000’s series that barely lived a single season. Surprisingly, it has a cult following and is one of MTV’s most popular animated shows. Joan represents the goth girl found at any given high school, dressed specifically in mall goth attire.
To pull off this look, you’ll need a collection of items that look straight out of the early 2000’s, such as a simple black choker, a black long sleeved shirt, some dark green cargo pants, black combat boots, and of course a simple magenta bob.
Winter Steele
Since platinum blonde hair and the 1980s are trending at the moment, I thought I’d take a classic turn. Winter Steele is a puppet character from MTV’s animated series Liquid Television. Her style is very punk, symbolizing Nancy Spungen or from this generation, a lookalike of Lorraine Broughton from Atomic Blonde.
It’s a fairly easy look to pull off. Many females from the ’80s and ’90s would be most familiar with such. You’ll need platinum blonde/white long hair, a black choker with silver medallion, a black biker jacket (black vintage military cap is optional), a dog tag necklace, black pair of sunglasses, leather black gloves, black leather boots with pearls wrapped around the ankles,topped off with a simple black bralette with pants.
Julie Winters from The Maxx
Julie Winters is the freelance social worker in the comic book and MTV animated series: The Maxx. Julie’s style evolves around seduction and attitude. Sultry, but with a military-like aesthetic. She is a troubled woman with a dark past trying to find her way in the world. When she’s not being a jungle queen within her and the Maxx’s sub consciousness, she’s working but dreading her profession in the city listening to people’s problems while shutting out her own.
To achieve her look, you’ll need: a cut off ‘cropped’ white tank top, black fishnet shorts, distressed/cut blue jeans, a classic brown leather belt, a burgundy colored scrunchie, a green army jacket, (black doc martins are optional), and of course, blonde hair pulled into a grungy pigtail.
Weird Al Yankovic
Weird Al Yankovic is a singer-songwriter known for his silly parodies and pastiches, scoring hit singles like “Amish Paradise” and “White & Nerdy”. He’s also starred film and television with UHF and The Weird Al Show respectively. Put on the glasses and mustache for his 80s look.
David Van Driessen
There are few people who have hope for the future of Beavis and Butt-head. However, David Van Driessen believes everyone has good in them. You just have to give them a second, third or fourth chance. From a classic peace sign T-shirt to Birkenstock sandals, Mr. Van Driessen is a true hippie with so much peace, love and understanding to give.
Daria Morgendorffer
While Daria’s style was seen as unfashionable by her classmates at Lawndale High School, her brains before beauty was something to which many real life teenage girls could relate. Keeping it simple with pleated skirts and boots, Daria had better things to do than worry about her appearance. You know, like a crush on her best friend’s brother.
