STYLE

Sparkling as this season's diamond of the period dramas, Bridgerton has taken millions by a posh, over-the-top and delightful storm. This Regency-era TV show bathes its characters in a vibrant 19th-century glow, with decadent wardrobes to match. Don’t worry if you're not in possession of a time-machine or a British castle—we've still got you covered. Here are some fashion must-haves to channel your inner Bridgerton duchess!

Regency-inspired dresses

Obviously, dresses are an *absolute* must, especially if they have that breezy, high-waisted Regency silhouette. You'll look about ready to waltz your way into fancy parties and hopeful hearts. Shop dresses like this on Etsy ($120) or a more affordable option here.

Opera gloves

Classy and bougie, treat yourself to a pair of elegant gloves to wear during the upcoming opera or your next self-care Netflix binge. Shop gloves like these at Free People ($48) or a more affordable option at Shein ($4).

Corsets

Corsets have been around since the Middle Ages and have had a complex history since, peaking especially in the 1800s. Despite the restricting and oppressive connotations previously associated with this traditional undergarment, the corset has now transformed into a stylish modern fashion staple. Shop corsets like this at Vanessa Mooney ($65) or a more affordable option at Amazon ($18).

Lace bustiers

If you're looking for a more casual and current version of a corset, then bustier tops are *perfect* for you. The structural boning and delicate lace make this piece both classic and trendy at the same time. Shop bustiers at Windsor ($37) or a more affordable option at Yesstyle ($19).

Brocade

You may recognize this rich, ornamental fabric used for antique curtains or furniture. Turns out it makes *fabulous* clothes as well. Next time you feel like being a couch potato, throw on a gorgeous brocade skirt for a sofa-chic twinning moment. Shop for brocade pieces like this at Lulus ($79) or a more affordable option at Chicwish ($53).

Pearls

The Bridgerton ladies certainly don their fair share of pearls, and understandably so. Soft and feminine, all jewelry made of this gem is precious in its own right. Shop pearls like these at Evry Jewels ($26) or a more affordable option at En Route ($18).

So what are you waiting for? Go treat yourself to some beautiful clothes today!
