When it comes to setting fashion goals, ‘Bridgerton’ is in a league of its own. Sure, it’s a smash hit when it comes to Regency-period dramas, but that’s only part of the story. The real magic? The show’s costumes. They’ve taken over Instagram feeds, inspired new wedding dress lines, and turned every episode into a masterclass in style. Each character’s wardrobe isn’t just pretty to look at — it tells you exactly who they are, where they stand in society, and what they’re feeling. The pastels, the dramatic shapes, those fearless color choices — you see them, and suddenly, you want to raid their closets.
And Ellen Mirojnick, ‘Bridgerton’s Emmy-winning costume designer, deserves a standing ovation for all that fashion magic. She didn’t just stick to strict Regency-era fashion rules. She mixed in bright colors, lush fabrics, and playful little details that made every scene pop. Her costumes do more than check the historical box — they show you who these characters are, what drives them, even what they’re hiding. Silk gowns, wild embroidery, those unforgettable capes — Mirojnick’s vision helped turn the show into a fashion trendsetter, not just another period piece.
Let’s get into seven moments where the show’s style totally changed the game and made those characters look unforgettable.
