In the Nickelodeon Original Movie Swindle, Jennette McCurdy captivated audiences not just with her acting prowess, but also with her stunning wardrobe choice. In one memorable scene, Jennette looked absolutely radiant in our best-selling Sunflower Dirndl, paired perfectly with the Sweetheart Blouse with Lace in White and a Black Choker.

Swindle is a Nickelodeon Original Movie that follows the adventurous story of a young boy named Griffin Bing, played by Noah Crawford. After accidentally selling a valuable baseball card for a fraction of its worth, Griffin and his best friend Ben, portrayed by Chris O'Neal, embark on a daring mission to retrieve it. To accomplish this, they enlist the help of their group of friends, including Savannah, played by Jennette McCurdy. Ariana Grande takes on the role of Amanda Benson, a tech-savvy and resourceful member of Griffin's team. Known for her intelligence and quick thinking, Amanda brings a unique set of skills to the group. Her expertise in technology and gadgets proves invaluable as they navigate their elaborate heist to reclaim the valuable baseball card. Together, they devise a series of clever and risky plans to outsmart the swindler and reclaim the card, all while navigating the challenges and hilarity of their youthful escapades. The movie is a fun and humorous tale of teamwork, resourcefulness, and determination.

In Swindle, Jennette McCurdy and Noah Munck take their characters' disguises to a new level by donning traditional Bavarian attire (one courtesy of yours truly!!). Jennette, playing the resourceful Savannah, wore our best-selling Sunflower Dirndl, paired with a Sweetheart Blouse with Lace in White and a Black Choker. Meanwhile, Noah Munck, portraying the hilariously crafty Darren, wore classic lederhosen with a collared shirt.

 

These traditional costumes are part of a clever scheme to infiltrate a high-society event and outsmart the swindler who tricked Griffin and his friends. The sight of Savannah and Darren in dirndl and lederhosen not only adds a humorous twist to the plot but also showcases the versatility and timeless appeal of these traditional garments. Their disguises play a crucial role in the unfolding adventure, highlighting their characters' creativity and determination to succeed against the odds.
