Can anyone help please? I've got this memory of maybe a girl group or a musical or something where they've all got different coloured dresses in these different bright colours, all different colour combinations. I sound like I've lost the plot don't I! I thought maybe it was a girls allowed video but it's not. Any ideas please? It might be from the 80's.

Its made me think of Hook for some reason - the scene where Robin Williams joins the lost boys and they imagine a feast and have a food fight.

Or some other film where there are cakes with really lurid brightly iced cakes? But I can't think what...

Maybe a cinderella?

I get scooby doo or 2006 bodycon dress vibes for some reason

Nancy doing Its a fine life in Oliver!? I couldn’t screenshot quick enough but her tights are that bright purple colour.

I was convinced it would be Beyoncé earlier though!
