Recreate Robin Wright’s ‘The Girlfriend’ Outfits from $20

Robin Wright embraces her inner “mama bear” in Amazon Prime Video’s new limited thriller series The Girlfriend. I recently watched the entire season and was captivated not only by the mind-twisting narrative, but also the preppy outfits of Wright’s tasteful character, Laura Sanderson. 

Throughout the entire show, the actress portrays elegance and poise as the head of her household. Even as Sanderson’s life unravels around her, Wright’s persona maintains an understated wardrobe consisting of silky blouses, sleek fitted sweaters, and a range of statement-making blazers that can be worn to the office, brunch, or to investigate your son’s new girlfriend. 

All of her looks are easy to replicate — especially if you’re looking to refresh your wardrobe with tailored fall pieces. Amazon’s fashion store is filled with clothes and shoes practically identical to the styles Wright wears in the show. Check out our top picks below with pieces going for as little as $20.

Fall Outfits Inspired by Laura Sanderson

Cushionaire Balance Sneakers

One of my favorite outfits that Wright wore on the series was a matching suit set with a pair of trendy sneakers. This pair could twin with the on-screen footwear  down to the dual brown tones. The neutral colors and mixed leather-suede upper can be worn with a navy suit ( like the actress opted for) or a pair of baggy jeans and a T-shirt for a more relaxed look. One teacher who works on their feet all day described them as “very comfortable” and enthused that they “have great support.”  

Anrabess Crewneck Sweater

Most of her character’s wardrobe consists of tasteful blazers, but in some scenes, she opts for classic sweaters like this crewneck style. The ribbed sleeves and hemline gives off a polished appearance — even when paired with leggings. The sweater also “delivers high-end vibes without the high-maintenance,” according to one shopper, while another reviewer added that the “tapered arms make it ideal for sliding up the arm or cuffing.” 

Dlooda Stretchy Work Pants

Some of my favorite fashion components within the show were Wright’s bottoms, including a pair of bootcut work pants similar to this style. The slacks are made from a stretchy material that one shopper compared to feeling like leggings, which is ideal for sitting at a desk all day in comfort. There are four pockets you can put your phone in and the subtle bootcut leg lets you show off pointed toe heels or statement sneakers.

Chigant Satin Blouse

Wright’s character wore a silky navy blue blouse in one episode, and it was all I could look at. The shiny material took the outfit from simple to mesmerizing, making it a must-have top for holiday parties and office days. This design has a satin material that offers a similar shimmery appearance, while the button-up closure can be worn open over a white T-shirt with trousers or tucked in with a blazer for a more tailored look.
