People everywhere have gone mad for Netflix’s decadent period drama, Bridgerton. Why? The captivating characters, steamy plotlines, and a deliciously clever soundtrack that incorporates classical covers of modern songs, for starters. And of course, audiences are in love with the series’ ultra-romantic Regency-era fashion.
Crowned Regencycore by the style crowd, the Bridgerton fashion trend is, like the Duke of Hastings, impossible to resist. And with season 2’s arrival finally upon us, and the Sharma family introduced, the love affair with all things Regency-era is about to be reignited.
Delicate cap- and puff sleeves, empire-waist dresses, flounce details, ornate headpieces, and hair accessories are all part of the Bridgerton aesthetic. Daphne’s signature palette of light blue hues and the Bridgerton family’s pastel palette have played major roles, as have the opulent accents: think floral embroidery, pearls, sparkling jewels, and feathers. The Sharmas wardrobes are infusing rich jewel tones into the aesthetic, as well.
With so much eye candy to behold, it’s no wonder audiences and fashion-lovers are hooked. (In the weeks after the show’s Season 1 premiere, Lyst searches for period pieces like elbow-length gloves, corsets, empire line dresses, and headpieces skyrocketed.)
You may not be attending a ball, but that doesn’t mean you can’t incorporate the Bridgerton look into your life. Ahead, shop romantic Regencycore pieces. From Bridgerton-worthy dresses to ornate hair accessories, these picks will have you looking, well, flawless, my dear.
