On both days, Marla wears the glasses of the intellectual manager and the high-heeled pumps that are the dress code of women in her position (throughout the film, the more significant a woman's status in the company, the higher her heels tend to be), yet her individual nature is revealed in her jewelry. Her golden wrist-chain (see below) is also absent. Her new, double-breasted suit jacket hangs more loosely around her torso and there is no blouse visible beneath it. On the second day, perhaps due to her failure to 'get to First Base' with Billy, Marla's outfit is less modest, softer, and slightly more feminine. Her black blouse may also indicate a darkness within, but her overall appearance suggests that she is more complicated than that. On the first day, Marla impresses Daniel Clamp and tries to seduce Billy Peltzer in a form-fitting wraparound suit jacket.

There are, however, subtle changes between her costume on the first and second of the two days in which the film takes place. Her grey blazers have padded shoulders and her ankle-length grey skirts each have a long slit up the back of about knee height to show off her nyloned legs. Marla Bloodstone is the quintessential power-suited businesswoman of the 1980s and early 1990s.
