Ally Sheedy said in 2020 that she disliked her character Allison's end-of-film makeover where Molly Ringwald's Claire transformed Allison's appearance, covering her in blush and eye-shadow and giving her a pink dress and headband to wear. Sheedy didn't like the message it relayed: that she had to change herself to get a boy to notice her. Sheedy said she and Ringwald petitioned John Hughes to change it to promote a less negative message. She didn't want Claire to put make-up on Allison's face, and had hoped that her physical transformation would involve merely slipping off her enormous black sweater and wearing with pride the plain white shirt she had on underneath. But he didn't go for that. It was the eighties and they wanted an ugly duckling becomes a swan transition.
