It's August, Madonna! ## Sandra Bernhard, 1989 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-105157385-1597097848.jpg) Sandra Bernhard during 1989 Herb Ritts Birthday Party in Los Angeles, California, United States. (Photo by Ron Galella/Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) This is like THE quintessential 1989 outfit. ## Scott Baio, 1989 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-75292433-1597097721.jpg) Scott Baio (Photo by Barry King/WireImage) Would love to hear what the four previous women think of Scott Baio. ## Richard Gere, 1989 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-109823730-1597097895.jpg) HOLLYWOOD - AUGUST 12: Actor Richard Gere attends Herb Ritts' 37th Birthday Party on August 12, 1989 at a private club in Hollywood, California. (Photo by Ron Galella, Ltd./Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) Richard Gere and Herb Ritts sort of hit it big together -- they were friends before either of them was famous, and [this Ritts shot of Gere was a huge boon to both their careers](https://blogs.baruch.cuny.edu/4900sum16/?p=45&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Gere here looks like he's cosplaying as the hottest nerd alive. ## Julia Roberts, 1989 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-110706261-1597097907.jpg) Julia Roberts during 1989 Herb Ritts Birthday Party in Los Angeles, California, United States. (Photo by Barry King/WireImage) And look who his date was! (They were in the middle of shooting *Pretty Woman* right now, as you can probably tell by her hair.) ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-115358989-1597097918-scaled.jpg) Julia Roberts and Richard Gere during 1989 Herb Ritts Birthday Party in Los Angeles, California, United States. (Photo by Jim Smeal/Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) At one point, a LOT of people were pushing this car. Julia does not seem to be having a good night. (She was apparently REALLY stressed during the filming of said movie.) ## Catherine Oxenberg, 1989 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-105850481-1597097871.jpg) Catherine Oxenberg during 1989 Herb Ritts Birthday Party in Los Angeles, California, United States.

(Photo by Ron Galella, Ltd./Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) For a second, I thought Kelly Preston was helpfully carrying in a box of, like, printer paper or something. This hat could NOT be more 1989 if it tried. ## Roger Wilson and Christy Turlington, 1990 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-79886577-1597097789.jpg) Roger Wilson and Christy Turlington (Photo by Barry King/WireImage) And all of Christy feels very 1990\. (He apparently went on to sue Leonardo DiCaprio for forty million dollars for allegedly bruising his larynx in a fight over Elizabeth Berkley.) ## Madonna, 1990 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-80660804-1597097812.jpg) Madonna (Photo by Barry King/WireImage) I hope Madonna still owns ALL of this. It feels deeply her. ## Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder, 1990 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-98441101-1597097836.jpg) Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder (Photo by Barry King/WireImage) I coveted Winona's velvet pants then, and I covet them now. ## Iman, 1991 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-77837138-1597097767.jpg) Iman (Photo by Ron Galella, Ltd./Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) !!!!!!! ## Brigitte Nielsen, 1991 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-78270231-1597097778.jpg) Brigitte Nielsen (Photo by Jim Smeal/Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) Also !!!!! but in a different tone of voice! ## Madonna, 1991 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-77376953-1597097755.jpg) Madonna (Photo by Jim Smeal/Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) Madonna has a dress code for this party and it involves a good red lip. ## Drew Barrymore and guest, 1991 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-80385990-1597097801.jpg) Drew Barrymore and guest (Photo by Ron Galella/Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) DREW WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH "AND GUEST" HERE? ## Sandra Bernard, 1991 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-105529317-1597097860.jpg) Sandra Bernhard during Herb Ritts Birthday Party - August 10, 1991 at Converted Warehouse in Culver City, California, United States. (Photo by Ron Galella/Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) I'm amused by that belt buckle. ## Christian Slater, 1991 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-105916378-1597097883.jpg) Christian Slater during Herb Ritts Birthday Party - August 10, 1991 at Converted Warehouse in Culver City, California, United States. (Photo by Ron Galella/Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) "I'm a little scared of Madonna and I KNOW she's going to be at this party." ## Madonna, 1991 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-135067342-1597097966.jpg) CULVER CITY, CA - AUGUST 10: Singer Madonna and director Alek Keshishian attend the Herb Ritts' 39th Birthday Party on August 10, 1991 at a converted warehouse in Culver City, California. (Photo by Ron Galella, Ltd./Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) "Yes. I'm over here now." ## Jody Watley, 1991 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-497848930-1597098025.jpg) CULVER CITY, CA - AUGUST 10: Jody Watley attends Herb Ritts Birthday Party on August 10, 1991 at Converted Warehouse in Culver City, California. (Photo by Ron Galella, Ltd./Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) Jody Watley! She looks SO cute here. I literally just opened Spotify to listen to "Looking For a New Love" while writing the rest of this post and OMG IT WAS GREAT. Turn it on right now. It will help whatever is wrong. ## Donovan Leitch, 1991 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-155504455-1597097979.jpg) Actor Donovan Leitch attends Herb Ritts' 39th Birthday Party on August 10, 1991 at a Converted Warehouse in Culver City, California.

(Photo by Ron Galella, Ltd./Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) Meanwhile, Mario Van Peebles started with his shirt already halfway off. ## Talisa Soto and Costas Mandylor, 1991 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-156121620-1597098002.jpg) Actors Talisa Soto and Costas Mandylor attend the 39th Birthday Party for Herb Ritts on August 10, 1991 at the Converted Warehouse in Culver City, California. (Photo by Ron Galella, Ltd./Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images) Fun fact: Talisa was married to Costas, and is now married to Benjamin Bratt. I am really happy for her, and like that dress. ## Amanda Donahoe, 1991 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/08/GettyImages-156139961-1597098015.jpg) Actress Amanda Donohoe attends the birthday party for Herb Ritts on August 10, 1991 at the Converted Warehouse in Culver City, California.
