This blood stained white turtle neck would have been the sweater of all sweaters. But it’s merger in season one finale. So we’ll start with this one as our top Mabel Mora outfits, the orange number in season 2, Eposide 1: Persons of Interest. She did look quite at home in the Art gallery looking very artistic herself.

There is quite alot to look into for pop culture, when it comes to New York City style inspiration. The likes of Blair Waldorf and Serena, Nanny Fran Fine, Cookie Lion, The Carrie Bradshaws, Denise Huxtable, Audrey Hepburn, in her little black dress and pearls in Breakfast at Tiffany’s come to minds. Now Mabel Mora played by Selena Gomez in Only Murders in the Building, who recently graced the scene after a while, has captured the eyes of fashion enthusiasts and color lovers alike.

From the opening scene of season one: True Crime (an ensemble of A yellow beanie, Pepper Red Beats headphones and a complimentary Michael Kors cropped fur mustard jacket), we were hooked for a promising event of unraveling styles and costumes which had us wanting more Mabel Fashion, more COATS!! Be She the only Murder-er in the building or not.

Dana Covarrubias

Dana Covarrubias, is the costume designer for Only Murders in the Building, She describes Mabel’s style as if Nancy Drew met Cher from Clueless, with a little dash of Corey Mason from Empire Records as seen in her mini skirts through the season.

Which understandably so. What screams Détective, if not a Bunch of Coats and Jackets. Remember Inspector Clouseau from Pink Panther? Well played! 👏🏾

Pippa Pyne Collared Argyle Sweater ensemble and white pants looks perfect under the mustard jacket from a scene in the second season: Framed

In the second season, Dana Covarrubias shopped a bunch of different designers who were all Mexican because she and Selena Gomez were half Mexican each.

The Long Double-Breasted Mustard Jacket by Maya is also known as the cinq-a-sept. It’s a jacket to be worn casually to complete an outfit, give an outfit a different look with a pop of great color or simply ward off cold. This sort of jacket is vintage, Mabel probably dipped into her affluent aunt’s closet after all she’s staying at her place. Off Screen, It goes for $695, but of course one could get affordable replicas in stores for regular people or even the Thrift store.

Eposide 3: The Last Day of Bunny Folger. The Andretti Cardigan: racing flag/lime by Lisa Says Gah.

Lisa Bühler’s has an e-shop and sustainable clothing line. She tends to play with funky prints, and, colors as seen on relatable women who understand fashion and have got style.

PELMO MINI SKIRT IN 70’S RIPPLE by motel rocks in Episode 4: Here’s Looking At You. You can see the Empire Record look Danna was going for, with a serious yet fun like artistic pattern on the skirt.

Imagine our shock, when we realised the lovely gown worn by Mable was a blouse and skirt. Gasp. We know !! It’s by the brand & other stories which is a brand under the popular H&M group. The two piece outfit is really gracious and effortlessly classy.

The display of Fashion on Only Murders in the Building gives an insight into the pop culture of Upper Eastside residents. As seen with the Arconia Board President Bunny, who was the ever Prim and Proper Lady of the Arconian Building. It’s nostalgic to see Selena steady back on screen from her days on Wizard of Waverly Place. With the Season Finalé wrapping up with another murder but out of the Building, does the name still stand as Only Murders in The Building, or… Hear us out, Only Murders on Stage because not everything is all what it seems.

Stay preppy Fashion Gurus. 👑
