The Sex Lives of College Girls Character-Style Breakdown

One key theme of season two of “The Sex Lives of College Girls” is exploration. The new season dives into how Bela, Leighton, Whitney, and Kimberly take on their friendships, love lives, and insecurities. Fashion helps bring their distinct personalities to life, just like their fun hair and makeup looks. Costume designer Salvador Pérez Jr. crafted the looks in season one, with Phoenix Mellow taking the reins for season two. Mellow was already a fan of how the show had established their personal styles and loved that each girl had her distinct aesthetic. This time around, though, she wanted to dig even deeper.

“It’s definitely a collaboration between me and the actor.”

With a fast-moving script and four core characters — not to mention several supporting ones — the HBO Max series has an ample costume closet. What’s more, Mellow explains, there isn’t much overlap when it comes to the four girls’ styles. Inspired by influencers and stylish stars on TikTok and Instagram, she created mood boards for each character. For Bela, she looked to those with quirky, bold style, like Ella Emhoff, Annie Lee Larson, and Olivia Rodrigo. Leighton’s ensembles, meanwhile, were heavily influenced by real-life, wealthy It girls, including Gigi Hadid and Bettina Looney. For Whitney’s outfits, she took inspiration from Aleali May and Chloe x Halle.

To assemble the girls’ wardrobes, Mellow shopped from each character’s perspective. For instance, Leighton would likely shop in New York City at stores like Saks Fifth Avenue and Bloomingdale’s, while Kimberly would go to Target or Madewell for something a little nicer.

Though Mellow’s team researched and sourced tirelessly, the costume designer says the actors’ personal styles in real life influenced their curations. “Each actor brings a lot to the table,” she tells POPSUGAR. “They’re super involved in their characters.” For the four actors, Mellow brings options to fittings based on their body types and preferences and will never move forward with something they don’t like. “It’s definitely a collaboration between me and the actor to even get to the next level of approvals,” she says.

In season two, all the plots thicken: Bela goes through ups and downs in her relationship with Eric as she pursues a comedy career; Leighton embraces her sexuality and confidence; Whitney finds her identity outside of soccer while entertaining a new suitor; and Kimberly deals with grueling personal and financial decisions. All these character journeys are reflected in their clothing choices in subtle ways.

Ahead, Mellow breaks down Bela, Leighton, Whitney, and Kimberly’s personal styles. Keep scrolling for more details about their outfits, the brands they primarily wear, and how their character arcs influence their looks.
