The style secrets behind Claudia Winkleman’s The Traitors outfits

The presenter’s stylist tells Daisy Lester the seven pieces everyone needs in their Winkleman-inspired wardrobe. From her dramatic capes and cashmere mittens to her go-to pair of Spanx leggings and perfectly chunky knitwear, The Traitors is back and so is Claudia Winkleman’s aspirational wardrobe.
The first two seasons of the hit BBC show proved that the presenter’s outfits are just as likely to go viral as roundtable moments (think that red knit or the iconic funeral outfit from series two). Favouring a high-low approach, McKeefry’s styling ranges from a designer cape paired with high street leggings to a velvet blazer over a £22.99 shirt.
But how do you go about recreating a Claudia Winkleman-inspired capsule wardrobe? Layering is key, says McKeefry. “A classic The Traitors look is a little Victorian shirt with a piece of knitwear over it or a blazer.”. Whether it’s tartan and Faire Isle prints or cord and tweed fabrics, McKeefry adds that “the outfits need to work in that rugged backdrop.” It’s country attire but still high fashion.
If you’re inspired by Claudia’s styling, McKeefry has shared the seven items you need to dress more like the presenter, from wrist warmers to stomping boots. A quintessential Traitors look is a little Victorian frilly or lacy shirt. “I always go to Zara... Its shirts are also great. There’s a big Chloe influence with ruffles in Zara at the moment,” McKeefry says. A masculine style works best for a statement evening look (add a black tie for extra impact).
