Mia Sara in the 1980s

It's no wonder that the most beautiful women of the 1980s worked so hard to maintain their appearances - if they didn't, there were plenty of ready-made replacements trying to take their jobs. Mia Sara is another 80's pin-up girl who turned her beauty into a big-screen career.

Sara is probably best known for appearing as Sloane Peterson in 'Ferris Beuller's Day Off' in 1986, but she also got to work with Tom Cruise (seemingly a rite of passage for 80's actresses!) in 'Legend', as well as landing prominent roles in 'Shadows in the Storm', 'Queenie' and 'Bug Time'. It's no surprise that she always appeared to be so comfortable in front of a camera - both of her parents were professional photographers and artists. Growing up in a creative household and being surrounded by works of beauty clearly rubbed off on her!
