Watching some telly before I get a little rowdy tonight, and one of my favourite costuming tropes is when a character out of their depth goes to the tropics/a hot place (it doesnt matter what they're there for) they must have a huge hiking pack paired with some sort of plaid shirt and singlet, for men you can throw in a henley, for women it must be a skin tight spaghetti strap singlet.
Bonus points for inappropriate footwear, khaki cargo shorts (cargo booty shorts of the ladies), some sort of head wrap, they gain a collection of "handcrafted" bracelets during their tropical/hot place adventure.
and they sit on logs, drink from streams and touch everything 😲
My fave movie about this Arachnophobia.
This show is about doctors in a "jungle", so them touching everything is extra hilarious! Especially since in the first episode one of the conventionally pretty doctors goes "oh I specialise in infectious diseases".
Edit - a word. I can assure you the tv doctors are not juggling.
Tropics = parasites 😲
Good example from the 80s - https://youtu.be/_rKHc5rCno8?si=XdfKBFPwCGD008rv

Holy shit! I Haven't watched that movie in years!!
Pretty sure I had the same thought I'm having now when I first watched that scene, those shoes would now been making her feet sit at some wild angles.
Watch it.. It still holds up, in a pretty corny way. Completely missed this as a kid though - https://youtu.be/Pwr8cLl9_-I?si=VSznB9NNikUOOk6Y
LMAO back in my "stoner" days I definitely remember that scene giving me a right chuckle.
