In the original film, we watched Andy’s style evolve alongside her growing fluency in fashion, culminating in a polished, self-assured (and, of course, chic) identity. In the sequel, that transformation isn’t just complete—it’s elevated. From the opening scene onward, each outfit feels intentional and thoughtfully curated, punctuated by accessories we’re already racing to track down. Her wardrobe now speaks in the language of authority and ease, shifting seamlessly from sharply tailored, power-driven pieces to more relaxed, off-duty looks.
There’s also a notable emphasis on vintage—including, most memorably, a striking Jean Paul Gaultier pinstripe waistcoat that feels both archival and distinctly Andy. At the same time, there’s no shortage of standout modern pieces, like that jaw-dropping blue sequin Rabanne dress. Jewelry plays a key role, too, with Andy frequently wearing Tarin Thomas’s luminous stone rings and the quietly bold Forme T-bar necklace from Jemma Wynne to complete each look. And while some pieces fall squarely into investment territory, consider this your cue: We’ve found equally chic, more accessible alternatives that capture Andy’s elevated, confident approach to dressing.
Ahead, discover how to recreate her most covetable looks.
A Denim Skirt, White Top and Chunky Sandals
The moment I saw this look, I couldn’t get enough of that light-wash denim skirt. A quick deep dive reveals it’s the Agolde Hilla Skirt—and, fortunately, it’s still up for grabs. Effortlessly versatile, it works year-round; here, Andy pairs it with a sleek Toteme Curved Rib Tank and an open vintage Jean Paul Gaultier vest for a cool, layered effect. Chunky black sandals keep things grounded and comfortable, while oversized sunglasses add a final touch of drama.
A Midi Skirt and Cropped Blouse
For a desk-to-dinner ensemble that works for just about any occasion calling for polish, a pleated midi skirt is a failsafe choice. Here, Andy pairs hers with a crisp, cropped button-down to keep things light and airy. She finishes the look with the braided Andres pump by Gabriela Hearst (now, unfortunately, sold out), though a raffia platform offers an equally chic, seasonally attuned alternative.
A Bold Maxi Dress and Straw Sun Hat
One of the film’s most captivating looks comes in the form of a statement Gabriela Hearst dress, defined by its vivid abstract print. While it’s certainly a splurge, there are plenty of bold midi and maxi dresses that channel a similar spirit—like the resort-ready Faithfull The Brand Maretta style, boasting colorful horizontal stripes. Andy’s accessories include brown platform sandals, a stack of layered necklaces, and Amor Y Mezcal’s Sierra Straw Bucket Hat, trimmed in burgundy. Though most sizes are sold out, Eric Javits offers a stylish alternative, available in a range of playful shades.
Cuffed Jeans and a Sheer Jacket
This casual look is effortlessly cool—and one I’ll definitely be recreating. Start by rolling up your go-to denim (and if you’re in the market for a fresh pair, Andy wears Levi’s light-wash Vintage 501 Original Jeans), or opt for a pre-cuffed style to skip the extra effort—like Frame’s flattering Hang Jean. Then, slip on a pair of black heeled ankle boots to elevate the look. The real standout, though, is the jacket: In the film, Andy styles a Dries Van Noten spring/summer 2007 striped silk utility piece. While the original is now elusive, a lightweight, transitional jacket in a similar vein is a seasonal essential—& Other Stories offers a sporty-chic option worth considering.
A Chic Grey Suit and Black Boots
An ultra-authoritative, power-forward look, Andy means business the moment she steps out in a Dolce & Gabbana gray wool blazer and matching pinstripe pants. A subtly ruched shirt softens the sharp tailoring, while a John Varvatos belt—finished with signature bit hardware—adds a bold edge. To amplify the commanding feel, she dons a dramatic pair of frames from Barton Perreira.
A Plaid Top and Pleated Skirt
I’ve been on the hunt for fresh ways to style my midi skirts, and this just might be my new go-to: pairing an A-line silhouette with a sheer, patterned top—so chic. Andy styles a black pleated midi with a plaid long-sleeve, accessorizing with Ulla Johnson’s glamorous Bijou Heels and standout orange-tinted aviator sunglasses.
A Black Jumpsuit and a Statement Tie
A decidedly sophisticated ensemble—and one of Andy’s most elegant looks in the film—this perfectly captures her evolution. She wears an Ulla Johnson jumpsuit (with embellished detailing added for extra bling) paired with an unexpected accessory I’d love to see make a more casual comeback: the tie. It’s a confident finishing touch that signals she knows exactly what she’s doing.
A Blue Sequin Dress and Evening Bag
Yes, you can absolutely wear a blue sequin dress without it veering into prom territory. While Andy’s exact Rabanne style is sold out, Simkhai offers an equally ravishing option, complete with a halter neckline and a beautifully draped silhouette that cinches the waist. Style it with delicate, coordinating sandals and a glamorous, embellished handbag—Andy carries the Rabanne Iconic Nano 1969 Bag—for a truly unforgettable night-out look.
