Women

Nellie LaRoy from Babylon

Nellie LaRoy is played by Margot Robbie in the film Babylon, directed by Damien Chazelle. Babylon is a epic period drama set in 1920s Hollywood and how it went from silent pictures to having sound. In the film we follow Nellie LaRoy as she follows her dream of becoming a famous actress and once successful, learns about the dark side of the industry.

Nellie LaRoy’s Wardrobe is one that changes throughout the film as she becomes successful. We first see her in this iconic red outfit that looks like she could’ve put together herself. Recreate this with the full costume or put it together yourself with red light-weight scarves, red shorts, and fashion tape. Another costume that matches her wild personality are the overalls she wears after a party scene- just a dark wash denim pair of overalls with a wide leg. Finally, another great costume to recreate is the costume she wears on set during her first picture with sound. She wears a green and white preppy outfit with suspenders and a tie.

Marianne from Normal People

Marianne is a character from the series Normal People and is played by Daisy Edgar-Jones. The show is based off of the original book by Sally Rooney and is about Marianne and Connell who both live in a small Ireland town. They come from different backgrounds and are in and out of each others lives as they grow up and mature throughout the series.

Marianne has a style that changes a lot throughout the series as she gets older and finds herself. We start by seeing her in high school with a uniform, but as she goes to college and beyond that, we see her explore different styles as she is trying to find her own identity. As she gets older her costumes seem to fit her and her personality better, while other times we can see that she is trying new things that don’t really seem like herself. In college she dresses in vintage, colorful pieces that fits in with the cool crowd around her. When she visits Italy, she wears pieces that seem to fit her best and are much more simple like her black maxi dress.

Rika Orimoto (Human Form) from Jujutsu Kaisen 0

Rika (voiced in Japanese by Kana Hanazawa and in English by Anairis Quiñones) is one of the key characters in the movie Jujutsu Kaisen 0, from the anime/manga series of the same name.

She was Yuta’s childhood friend, but tragically died in a car accident, which turned her into a cursed spirit. This lead to her haunting him for many years, striking at others she didn’t approve of being around him (most people). He still wears her mother’s ring that she gave him when they were little.

Rika has mid-back length brown hair and similarly colored eyes, and her outfit is the same one she wore in life, with a deep blue sleeveless dress, topped with a white collar decorated with hearts and red ribbon, and blue slip on shoes.

Princess Mercury from Sailor Moon

Mercury wears her hair in the same way as she does in her civilian and Sailor wear, but instead of her tiara, she has the symbol for Mercury on her forehead, in blue.

She wears a blue sleeveless v-neck dress with golden ring detailing on the straps, and a little capelet coming off of the back. Instead of her usual choker, she wears a long blue ribbon around her neck, and has a blue teardrop necklace worn just under her collarbones.

The Mayor from the SpongeBob Musical

The Mayor is a minor character in SpongeBob Squarepants: The Broadway Musical. A stage adaptation of the Nickelodeon cartoon, the show premiered on Broadway at the Palace Theater in 2017. As the name suggests, she is the Mayor of Bikini Bottom. Gaelen Gilliland portrayed the Mayor in the Broadway production.

Natalie from The Bear

Natalie Berzatto, nicknamed “Sugar”, is a character from the series The Bear and is played by Abby Elliot. The Bear is about a chef named Carmen, who has quit fine dining and returns to Chicago to try and fix the run down sandwich shop previously owned by his brother who passed. We follow his struggles in gaining respect from the previous kitchen staff while dealing with grief and the stressful environment all at once. In the series we also meet Natalie, who is Carmen’s sister. Natalie is very encouraging towards her brother, and really steps up and commits to helping the restaurant in season two, becoming a true part of the team.

Natalie in season two often dresses professionally, as she is handling the business side of remodeling the restaurant. She mostly sticks to jewel tones-greens, blues, and reds. When she isn’t handling the business side, she helps out with handy work where she can and there we see her in practical but stylish green coveralls.

Frances Ha

Frances is played by Greta Gerwig and is the main character from the film Frances Ha, directed by Noah Baumbach. The film follows Frances as she navigates living in New York. We watch her face adulthood and try to achieve her dreams of becoming a dancer, but she seems to fall behind the people her age in areas like having her own apartment, a stable job, and being okay with not living with her best friend Sophie that achieves this before she does.

This film is entirely in black in white, but her personality still shines through in what pieces Frances chooses to wear. She is a big outfit-repeater, usually wearing a floral dress with leggings underneath, her signature bomber jacket with a fur collar, and without the jacket she wears a white cardigan around her waist to make her stand out against the also-gray background she’s in. When she gets her office job with the dance company in the end, she dresses professionally in a knee-length skirt and the white button down we see her wear previously that fits perfectly into her new look.

Barbara Howard from Abbott Elementary

Barbara Howard is from the TV series Abbott Elementary and is played by Sheryl Lee Ralph. Barbara is a Kindergarten teacher at the elementary school in the series. She is a kind character that mostly sticks to a traditional way of teaching. Janine Teagues looks up to her for her ability to tackle any situation.

Barbara has a school-appropriate and classy while still stylish approach to her everyday fashion. You’ll usually see her in a patterned blouse, a cardigan, sometimes a matching scarf and often a pearl necklace.

Charlotte Flax from Mermaids

Charlotte is a character from the 90s film Mermaids, and is played by Winona Ryder. Mermaids follows Charlotte who is tired of her mother Rachel moving her family every time she feels like it, and when she’s thinks they will finally settle down in Massachusetts, she realizes she is more like her mother than she thinks and they learn to grow and accept each other.

Charlotte in the beginning of the film is obsessed with living a religious lifestyle, different from her mother and therefore dresses very conservatively like her costume with a black dress, white lace collar, and always a black headband and cross necklace, or her yellow cardigan and gray pleated skirt. Later in the film when she becomes rebellious, she takes her mothers iconic pink retro dotted dress and tries to dress and act like her.

umbrella from skullgirls
