Photo Gallery: Top Fashion from Gossip Girl So Far!

Gossip Girl is pretty much known for the fashion, so we thought it was only appropriate to count down some of the best outfits from the show’s 100 episodes so far! We reached out to GG fashion expert Karissa Bowers, whose site GossipGirlFashion.net recaps the outfits of each episode and tells you how to get the look.

Check out her favorite styles in the photo gallery below, and let us know in a comment which was your favorite one!





Blair Waldorf Must Pie

This is perhaps my favorite Blair outfit ever worn on Gossip Girl. Her Marc by Marc Jacobs lace dress is paired perfectly with a Trina Turk ‘Espresso’ capelet, lace tights, and a signature headband. The gold monochromatic color scheme is great for the Thanksgiving holiday.

Hi Society

Serena manages to make a school uniform cute by wearing a Nanette Lepore ‘Symphony’ cardigan with over-the-knee socks and Moschino T-Strap Booties.

Summer Kind of Wonderful

Blair wears an Alice + Olivia ‘Garden Party’ dress that sold out as soon as it was featured on the show. The outfit is accessorized with a Kate Spade “Little Compton” bag and a Garland Collection Monogrammed necklace. It’s the perfect look for the Hamptons during the summer.

Summer Kind of Wonderful

Serena’s Oscar de la Renta gown she wears to the white party is one of my favorite gowns ever worn on the show. The look is completed with a crystal headband.

The Grandfather

Not only do I love Blair’s outfit here but I also love her hair and makeup; her red lipstick complements her blue and white dress well. Blair is wearing a Herve Leger Bandage dress, a Joie sequin cardigan, and an Erikson Beamon Anchor necklace.

The Lost Boy

In Season 3, Serena’s style begins to evolve from a free-spirited, Kate Moss inspired look to a more refined bohemian look. She wears a beaded Matthew Williamson dress with Zara heels and a Treesje Jovi bag.

Dan de Fleurette

Jenny starts off the new school year at Constance Billard in a Rag & Bone vest, BCBG MAX AZRIA tank, Jimmy Choo ‘Emanuel’ sandals, and carries a Be&D ‘Garbo’ satchel. Her minions don’t approve of this headband-free look but I think it’s one of Jenny’s best outfits in Season 3.

Enough About Eve

Blair wears an emerald Grace Sun sheath dress that looks great with her olive skin tone. She pairs the dress with a yellow Paige Gamble Ostrich Lunchbox and purple Nicholas Kirkwood platform heels; creating an interesting color scheme.

Belles de Jour

The Paris set Gossip Girl Season 4 premiere featured some of the best looks of the season but the one that really stood out to me was Serena’s George Chakra ‘Cage Corset’ dress with a Rag & Bone blazer layered over it. I also really love the J. Crew “Camden” brogues she wears with this outfit. She tops off this great outfit with Yestadt Millinary ’76 Trombones’ hat.

G.G.

This list of favorite looks wouldn’t be complete without Blair’s wedding gown. Her Vera Wang Spring 2011 Gown turns Blair into one of the most beautiful brides. The royal wedding dress had to be regal enough for a princess and I think the Vera Wang gown definitely is.

Gossip Girl Season 5 Preview Pics: Blair Waldorf Goes Wedding Dress Shopping!

Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester was recently spotted outside the Vera Wang Bridal Boutique in NYC which can only mean one thing…Blair Waldorf’s dress is going to be a Vera original! (Not that anyone would expect anything less from a Manhattan princess though!)

I adore the challenge of creating truly modern clothes, where a woman’s personality and sense of self are revealed. I want people to see the dress, but focus on the woman.” – Vera Wang. Well, sounds like B and V are just the right match! (They even think alike!)

Knowing Blair, she probably won’t be satisfied until she’s found the most perfect wedding gown for her dream wedding, and the dress has to 100% impress. Even with a baby on the way, Blair will certainly see to it that her royal nuptials happen without any unexpected bumps!




Snow White

Blair sticks to the appropriate color scheme of the day…white! The blushing bride kept warm in a sophisticated white coat and gorgeous hat while shopping for the wedding dress of her dreams.

The Royal Treatment

Blair is met by dress experts and whisked into the luxurious world of the Vera Wang Bridal Boutique. (Oh! And is that a Loewe’s orange ‘Amazona’ bag we spy? Oo la la!)

The One

Could this be the lucky gown that B has chosen? She’d probably wouldn’t go for a window display option though…she’d have hers custom-made just like every other proper princess before her!

The Dignified Princess-to-be Emerges

Blair exits Vera Wang looking as refined and elegant as ever! And, ladies and gentleman, this optimistic and determined face is that of a lady on a mission!

Wedding Drama

Uh oh! B’s worried expression spells trouble. Could she have spotted an arch enemy or is experiencing baby daddy blues again?

Hot Mess: Lily Collins

I’m not sure who to be more disappointed in: My beloved house of Chanel for designing this atrocious blue monstrosity, or Abduction actress Lily Collins or choosing to wear the dress to the Paris premiere of her new thriller. Does this frumpy, garish, ghastly gown have any redeeming qualities? Or should Lily switch styles ASAP?

Season 5 Fashion Predictions: Serena

Who will dress S this season? (Photo: Jackson Lee / Splash News)

Serena’s bold, confident style will be evident as ever this season–or so predicts Rent the Runway. They see L.A.’s newest addition walking down Rodeo Drive in a tangerine Thakoon or a magenta Matthew Williamson, and donning a Christian Siriano gown for her first formal event or movie premiere (hint hint!).

Serena has always been one to go for younger, more experimental designers and these pieces are fashion forward perfect for her. Sound similar to your own style? Check out the gallery below to “borrow” these Serena-approved styles.



Thakoon Red Hot Addiction Dress

Lady in red? S will add sizzle to the L.A. streets in this flirty Thakoon number.

Rent the look for yourself for $150


Christian Siriano Walk in the Garden Gown

Can’t you picture Serena rocking the room at a star-studded Hollywood gala in this Christian Siriano couture?

Rent this glam gown for $350.


Matthew Williamson Caught Up in Love Dress

Hollywood, meet your new It girl. S can party A-list style in this Matthew Williamson strapless mini, and so can you.

Hot or Not: Demi and Selena’s Twin Trains

Reunited and it feels so good! At least for long-lost BFF’s Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez, who seem to be having a hearty LOLZ on the Teen Choice Awards red carpet. But do their super similar dresses tickle your fancy as well? Take a good long look at Demi’s BCBG Max Azria gown and Sel’s Erin Fetherston frock and tell me if you’re loving or loathing this dress-with-a-train trend.

Hot or Not: Elle Fanning

The icy blue Marc Jacobs dress that Elle Fanning wore to the Crystal & Lucy Awards in LA looks like it’s made from pure sugar…but am I the only one who’s getting a headache? While the dress is dazzling, it just doesn’t seem to flatter the Super 8 star. Could it be an all-wrong fit? Or is the ballerina-inside-a-music-box look the wrong kind of teenage dream for this starlet?

Fashion Faceoff: Abigail vs. Anna

Little Miss Sunshine squared off against Twilight‘s hottest non-vampire last night at Vanity Fair‘s fete for the Tribeca film festival. Which fresh-faced starlet rocked the red carpet: 15-year-old Abigail Breslin in leather and liner, or Anna Kendrick, who wore patent Jimmy Choo’s with a leopard-and-leather dress?
