Jules' 23 Most Iconic Outfits from Euphoria
June 20, 2023 - by Themba Mahlangu - 15 min read
Jules from Euphoria is not just a character; she’s a fashion icon! From her early days in hyper-feminine baby doll aesthetic to her edgy, more androgynous looks - Jules’ transformation is one for the books. Her season 1 style is like a Y2K e-girl, with lots of pastel shades (especially bubble gum pink!) and dreamy makeup. Fezco said it best: “Looking all Sailor Moon and shit.” Jules’ season 2 wardrobe is more androgynous, with muted colors and oversized pieces for a comfortable, laid-back look.
And it’s not just about the clothes - Jules’ outfits reflect her journey of self-discovery and acceptance as a trans woman. Hunter Schafer, the actress who plays Jules, brings her own experiences as a trans woman to the role, adding an extra layer of authenticity to the character’s story.
As we explore Jules’ 23 most iconic outfits from Euphoria season 1 and season 2, we’ll analyze how her style reflects her emotions. Plus, we’ll take a closer look at some of the fashion brands and designers she wears, like the American fashion brand Eckhaus Latta.

- Jules’ Floral-Embellished Turtleneck (S1EP1)
Jules is the new girl in town. After her parents split up, she and her dad moved from Los Angeles to the suburbs. In the pilot episode, Jules is rocking a flower print turtle neck with a pink skirt that screams summer vibes. To top off the look, she’s wearing oval 90s sunglasses in black and carrying a cute pink furry mini backpack.
But, let’s talk about what went down when she was riding her bike and Nate’s truck pulled up. He had the nerve to taunt and catcall her, causing her to fall off her bike. Rude much?
¶
- Jules’ Purple Buckles Dress (S1EP1)
Jules may be new to the suburbs, but she’s certainly no stranger to taking risks. When she meets
*
DominantDaddy
*
on a dating app, she’s intrigued by his mysterious allure and ends up at a motel with him. Although he’s married, Jules is unfazed - after all, she’s just seeking sexual experiences with white, cisgender men.
Often the sexual encounters turn violent, but that doesn’t hold her back. In fact, she actively seeks out these kinds of encounters. As Hunter Schafer explained in an interview with
*
Euphoria Unfiltered,
*
“Jules is always searching for affirmation and ‘love’. Being a trans woman, Jules has a unique relationship with womanhood and has seen firsthand how women are mistreated by men. There’s a deep-rooted desire in her to be treated a certain way in order to feel validated as a woman.”
For her date with
*
DominantDaddy
*
, Jules chooses a stunning purple buckle dress, called the
*
William Dress by Opening Ceremony
*
. She pairs it with the playful
*
Daisy Print T-shirt by Topshop
*
and some edgy, torn fishnet stockings that show off her rebellious side.
But things take a turn for the worse at McKay’s party when Nate once again singles Jules out for aggression. It’s a terrifying experience that leaves Jules wounded, but it’s also the moment she and Rue connect and begin to form a powerful bond.
¶
- Jules’ Blue Daisy Top and Skirt (S1EP2)
Jules starts off the new school year in style, sporting a blue plaid skirt and a daisy flower embroidered blue top. Her outfit is completed with a trendy transparent mini backpack in the color yellow.
Jules is glad to have Rue by her side on her first day at the new High School. As a transfeminine person, Jules has likely faced discrimination in the past, so having a supportive friend like Rue is invaluable. Together, they navigate the treacherous waters of high school, making even the worst days a little less unbearable.
¶
- Jules’ Purple Top and Checkered Skirt (S1EP3)
Jules and Rue have been inseparable since the house party, but when Jules opens up about a new guy she met on a dating app, Rue is skeptical. She thinks
*
ShyGuy118
*
is just a “fuckboy” and not looking for anything serious. Little did they know that the guy in question was actually Nate, Maddy’s on-and-off boyfriend. Drama, drama, drama!
Jules looks amazing in her outfit of the day, including the
*
Lapped Seam Baby Tee by Eckhaus Latta
*
and the
*
Tartan Button Kilt Skirt by Topshop
*
. She adds a pop of color with her pink furry backpack.
¶
- Jules’ Striped Crop Top and Orange Skirt (S1EP3)
Jules can’t resist Tyler, aka
*
ShyGuy118
*
, aka Nate f*cking Jacobs. She’s been spending a lot of time talking to him on the phone, and it looks like she might be falling for him.
Jules’ outfit is a fun and flirty combination of a striped crop top and an orange skirt. But what’s catching everyone’s attention are her
*
Y.R.U. Slayr Angyl Boots.
*
These white vegan leather boots are adorned with 3D wings on the sides, giving the impression that Jules is an angel ready to take off into the sky. The lace-up front and cleated platform soles make these shoes stylish and comfortable. It’s no wonder that Jules loves these boots; they’ve become one of her signature pieces.
¶
- Jules’ Velour Tank Top and Yellow Plaid Skirt (S1EP3)
Jules rocks the
*
Velour Fitted Tank by Eckhaus Latta
*
and the
*
Check Kilt Miniskirt by Topshop
*
. She’s over the moon because Tyler wants to meet her, but Rue is concerned. Meeting strangers online can be dangerous, and she urges Jules to meet him publicly. However, Jules can’t do that because Tyler’s mom is super conservative.
The disagreement causes a fight between the two, and Jules storms off. “Rue, this is the difference between like you and me. I don’t always get the privilege of meeting people in front of an audience,” Jules says, clearly frustrated.
¶
- Jules’ Atomic Crop Top (S1EP4)
Jules is slaying in a white floral crop top called the
*
Atomic Tank by Vanna Youngstein
*
. The small imprinted roses on the top make it even cuter.
The fourth episode of the show focuses on Jules. We learn more about her background story, including a traumatic experience from her childhood. At 11 years old, Jules’ mother took her on a “road trip”, but it turned out to be a deception, and she was actually admitted to a psychiatric hospital. She struggled with self-harm while there but eventually recovered and went home. However, her relationship with her mom remained tense while her bond with her dad grew stronger.
Jules began her transition at the age of 13, and fortunately, her dad was supportive throughout her journey to becoming a woman.
¶
- Jules’ Outfit at the Carnival (S1EP4)
Jules has a penchant for pink when meeting men, so it’s no surprise she chose to wear an extra-girly pink dress for her date with Tyler after the carnival. Jules had thought Tyler was the perfect guy for her, so when she realized she had been played by Nate, it was a heart-wrenching experience.
Pink, a color associated with love and femininity, speaks to Jules’ desire to be seen as a woman. She often wears bubble gum-colored dresses and skirts because, as she says, “If I can conquer men, I can conquer femininity.” She wants to obliterate gender norms and move beyond them.
¶
- Jules’ Silky Cloud Turtleneck Dinner Outfit (S1EP5)
Jules’ outfit for dinner with her dad is a mix of edgy and dressy. She’s wearing the
*
Shiny Blue Crop Top by T by Alexander Wang
*
. Underneath, she has on the
*
Bailey Top by Reformation
*
, a long-sleeved top with a striking print of clouds and angels.
During dinner, Jules’ dad asks her about Rue and whether they’re a thing. Jules denies it, but she’s clearly uncomfortable with the conversation. Her dad praises her for being a good influence on Rue, but Jules doesn’t want the burden of being responsible for someone else’s happiness and recovery.
And I honestly understand where Jules is coming from! In the last episode, we saw how her relationship with her own addicted mother is strained, so understandably, Jules is scared of being the sole reason for Rue’s recovery. It’s a lot of pressure for anyone to handle, let alone a 17-year-old.
¶
- Jules’ Yellow Ring Top and Beaded Bomber Jacket (S1EP6)
Jules looks stunning in the
*
Lou Dallas Top from the Spring 2019 Collection
*
and her
*
Jewel Embellished Bomber Jacket by Hyein Seo
*
. However, her outfit is the last thing on her mind as she meets up with Nate, who drops a bombshell. He’s blackmailing her with the nudes she sent him while posing as
*
ShyGuy118
*
. Nates threatens her with a sex offender list if she is not making a false statement at the police station.
Jules is caught in a tough situation. It’s frustrating to see someone like Nate using such manipulative tactics to get what he wants, and one can only hope that Jules finds a way out of this difficult situation.
¶
- Jules’ Halloween Costume (S1EP6)
Jules was dressed up as Juliet (Claire Danes) in the 1996 film adaptation of
*
Romeo and Juliet
*
directed by Baz Luhrmann. She wore a beautiful vintage dress that was white and angelic in appearance. Jules completed her Juliet costume with angelic feather wings and a cross necklace, just like in the original movie.
¶
The Deeper Meaning Behind Jules’ Juliet Halloween Outfit: An Analysis and Explanation of Her Costume Choice
Her costume choice can be interpreted in several ways. First, Jules was dressed as Juliet on Halloween as a play on their homophonic names.
Second of all, Juliet’s character in the play is seen as androgynous, breaking traditional gender stereotypes, which aligns with Jules’ own non-conforming and gender-fluid identity. By embodying Juliet, Jules can express her identity and challenge societal norms.
The story of Romeo and Juliet is a classic tale of love and passion, and Jules’ choice to dress up as Juliet could also symbolize her feelings for Rue.
And last but not least, Jules has been seen wearing clothing pieces that can be interpreted as heavenly or angelic on multiple occasions throughout the series. This could be symbolic of her role as Rue’s guardian angel, supporting her in her journey toward sobriety. It’s a beautiful representation of the strong bond between the two characters and the importance of having someone to lean on during difficult times.
¶
- Jules’ Graphic Sweater at the Police Investigation (S1EP7)
Jules looks visibly distressed since Nate has coerced her into helping him clear his name. She is wearing the
*

*
and graphic jeans. Her clashy outfit serves as a visual representation of the inner turmoil during the police investigation.
Meanwhile, Rue is slowly piecing together the mystery of Nate and Jules’ suspicious alliance. Through a lens of 90s crime thrillers, Rue shares her theory with her partner in crime, Lexi.
She finds it strange that Tyler Clarkson has been arrested for assaulting Maddy Perez and even stranger that Jules has corroborated his involvement. However, it all starts to make sense when Rue realizes that Nate has catfished Jules, who is now in love with him. Jules helped take Tyler down to protect Nate from assault charges. At the same time, Tyler likely agreed to be Nate’s patsy to avoid statutory rape charges for his encounter with the underaged Maddy in the pilot episode.
The only detail Rue is missing is the sexting. Jules isn’t in love with Nate. He is using her nudes to blackmail her into compliance.
¶
- Jules’ Embellished Bomber Jacket and Lace-up Boots (S1EP7)
Once again, Jules is dressed in a stunning outfit from the
*
Lou Dallas Fall 2019 Collection
*
. Her playful yet sexy dress is unique and perfect for a night out with old friends in Los Angeles.
Completing the look is the
*

*
Icy Lash Boots
*
, a beautiful pair of white lace-up boots from
*

*

Jules is clearly relishing the chance to clear her mind and take a break from the drama in East Highland. The constant ups and downs in her relationship with Rue, coupled with Nate’s blackmailing, had become a bit overwhelming lately.
¶
- Jules’ Winter Formal Outfit (S1EP8)
Jules’ outfit is a stunning combination of pieces from the
*
Lou Dallas Spring 2019 Collection
*
, featuring a top and pants that perfectly complement each other. She pairs these with silver metallic Adidas sneakers for a sporty touch, while a transparent glittery mesh coat adds a touch of glamour and completes the look.
Jules’ outfit also reflects her open and accepting personality, as evidenced by the large transgender symbol on the back of her jacket. As a proud trans-feminine woman, Jules is not afraid to showcase her identity, and we love her for it.
¶
- Jules’ New Year’s Eve Outfit (S2EP1)
Jules’ evolving style reflects her dynamic personality. One can see this evolution in Jules’ recent winter formal and New Year’s Eve outfits that suggest a new look for Season 2. Moving away from her bubbly pink color palette, she now rocks more androgynous outfits.

Jules, Rue, and Elliot have become close friends, and there’s a subtle sexual tension brewing between Elliot and Jules. It’s unclear if Elliot is being manipulative or honest as he showers Jules with compliments and shows a crush on her. This causes a plot twist in the love triangle as he and Rue initially had chemistry beyond their shared substance abuse.

As Elliot and Jules get closer, Rue feels lost and alone, still grieving for her deceased father and wanting to find emotional fulfillment.
¶
- Jules’ Hot Orange Knitted Hoodie (S2EP5)
Jules and Rue’s friendship is crumbling after Jules told Rue’s mom about her daughter’s substance use. Rue lashed out with some cruel and hurtful words toward Jules after discovering that she was the one who informed her mom.
Despite the tension, Jules remains fashionable and comfortable in a knitted hoodie with a vibrant color scheme.
¶
- Jules’ Lace Cut Out Top (S2EP7)
The girls’ relationship has been strained since Jules exposed Rue’s drug use to her mom. When they bump into each other in the school bathroom, Jules is sporting a daring top that combines cut-out and lace-up styles.
Rue reflects on how she used to believe that she and Jules were meant to be, but it seems like they may have reached the end of their relationship.
Later, Jules tearfully admits her love for Rue at the
*
This is Life
*
play, but Rue chooses to walk away from her without reconciling. The Euphoria season 2 finale sees Rue confronting the harmful effects of her addiction on her loved ones, including Jules. Realizing that staying sober requires removing certain emotional triggers, Rue walks away from Jules in order to protect her and focus on her recovery.
Jules’ fashion choices in Euphoria have not only been inspiring, but they’ve also helped to represent the LGBTQ+ community. As a trans woman, Jules is a true trailblazer and a force to be reckoned with. We can’t wait to see what her character brings to the table in the upcoming season of Euphoria.
