Netflix is bringing back A Different World, and Debbie Allen and Felicia Pride are the pair leading its return. The story is set at Hillman once more, where a fresh class of students shares the campus with familiar faces from the original 1980s run. For an archive that keeps careful count of who wore what and when, a revival is an occasion of its own: a beloved show choosing to come back rather than simply be remembered. We'll be watching the new class's wardrobe closely once they arrive.

With reporting from Harper's Bazaar.
