Candace Cameron, known for her role as DJ Tanner on the popular sitcom Full House, once fought with the show’s producers over an outfit she loved. This story recently came to light during an episode of the podcast How Rude, Tanneritos, hosted by her co-stars Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber.
Candace Cameron’s Iconic Outfit
In the 21st episode of Season 3, titled Just Say No Way, DJ Tanner wore an iconic black ensemble featuring MC Hammer-style pants, a gold-detailed bustier, and a matching black jacket. The outfit reflected the bold and stylish fashion trends of the 1990s and left a lasting impression on fans.

However, this outfit almost didn’t make it to the screen. Producers originally wanted DJ to wear a dress in the scene, but Candace Cameron strongly believed the pantsuit better represented her character. She argued passionately to wear the outfit, and eventually, the producers agreed.
Both Sweetin and Barber applauded Cameron’s determination, describing the outfit as “very stylish” and a perfect fit for the show’s 90s aesthetic. Barber noted the strong influence of pop stars like Janet Jackson in DJ’s look, which added an edgy vibe to the character’s style.
Sweetin humorously recalled how DJ’s hair was styled to match the fashion of the time, with big bangs and side-sprayed hair. “You’d spray it so your hair would stick out to the side—it was peak 90s fashion,” she joked.
This moment highlights how Full House not only entertained audiences but also became a time capsule for the era’s fashion and culture. Candace Cameron’s persistence in wearing the outfit symbolizes the importance of creative expression, even in a scripted show.
Fans of Full House can relive these iconic moments by streaming the series on Amazon Prime. From unforgettable outfits to heartfelt lessons, the show remains a cherished piece of 90s television history.
