Is HBO’s ‘Euphoria’ actually a prestige drama or just an excuse for the costume department to serve us lewks that make red carpet regulars weep? Because honestly, we’re starting to think it’s the latter, and we are NOT complaining.
Listen, we’ve seen a lot of fashion moments grace our screens, but nothing—and we mean NOTHING—compares to the absolute chaos and creativity that ‘Euphoria’ brings to the table. From Maddy Perez’s gravity-defying cutout gowns that make us question the laws of physics to Nate Jacobs dropping a cool $7,300 on a Bottega Veneta flannel (yes, you read that right), this show has officially shattered every fashion rule in the book and then some.
Maddy’s iconic looks are basically weaponized fashion. That jaw-dropping cutout dress? We’re talking strategic slits that would make even the boldest celebrities think twice. The girl walks into a room and fashion editors everywhere start frantically refreshing their fashion week notes. It’s giving main character energy, it’s giving confidence, it’s giving LEWK.
But let’s talk about Nate’s $7,300 flannel situation because we need to unpack this insanity. A FLANNEL. That’s not just fabric; that’s a statement piece that says, ‘I’m rich, I’m unhinged, and my fashion choices are questionable but make it expensive.’ The audacity! The absolute NERVE! We’re kind of living for it though.
Fans have absolutely lost their minds over these sartorial choices, with TikTok and Twitter absolutely ERUPTING every time a new episode drops. People are literally trying to recreate these looks, hunting down similar pieces, and emptying their bank accounts in the process. Fashion brands are probably sending thank-you notes to HBO’s costume department right now.
What makes ‘Euphoria’s’ fashion moments even more iconic is that they’re not just pretty—they’re character statements. Every cutout, every clash of colors, every questionable designer choice tells you something about who these people are. It’s fashion as storytelling, and honestly? We’re obsessed.
The show has officially proven that you don’t need to follow fashion rules to be fashionable. You just need confidence, a questionable sense of boundaries, and apparently, access to a designer budget that would make our bank accounts cry.
What do you think? A) Maddy’s cutouts are iconic and we need more B) Nate’s expensive flannels are absolutely unhinged and we’re here for it
