There’s about to be a -shaped hole in your evenings as the BBC’s hit series of the year draws to a close. The ultimate watercooler show, it’s delivered record-breaking viewing figures – and, if there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that Claudia Winkleman’s wardrobe has been just as captivating as the game itself.
Along with her signature fringe, fake tan and kohl eyeliner, the presenter has once again leaned into the gothic, country-inspired aesthetic that has become synonymous with the BBC hit. Think rich autumnal textures, sharp tailoring, tartan and statement outerwear, all styled by her longtime collaborator Sinead McKeefry.
The pair have worked together for 18 years, developing a shorthand that allows them to build Claudia’s wardrobe around the drama and setting of the show. The result is a distinctive mix of punk, prep and Highland dressing, with designer pieces sitting alongside high-street finds.

It’s a formula that has had a remarkable influence beyond the castle. Tartan, kilts, chunky boots, tweed and oversized coats have all become fixtures of the autumn high street, while Claudia’s individual pieces regularly send viewers searching for their own versions.
McKeefry described the appeal of the wardrobe as surprisingly straightforward: “The styling isn’t overcomplicated. The individual items aren’t scary.”

That makes Claudia’s wardrobe particularly easy to borrow from. You don’t need to recreate an entire castle-ready look; a great coat, chunky knit, pair of leggings or brogues can instantly give an everyday outfit that same darkly romantic feel.
If previous seasons are anything to go by, we’re in for some show-stopping outfits in tonight’s final episode. Here’s what Claudia Winkleman has worn so far in , plus the best high-street alternatives.

In a look that’s gloriously -coded for the final episode, Claudia layered Brora's Alpaca Colour Block Tank over a white ruffled collar shirt, paired with Le Kilt's Tweed Midi Kilt, and Hambro & Miller's Fair Isle Wrist Warmers.
On the high street, try this Arket knit over H&M’s ruffle collar shirt, styled with Nobody’s Child’s tartan skirt or Albaray’s similarly Highlands-core take. This chocolate brown Nobody’s Child wool coat is a stylish alternative to Claudia’s.


Claudia’s heeled, pointed Chelsea boots also appear to be from YSL, but H&M has delivered an affordable alternative in the form of these heeled black ankle boots (£37.99, Hm.com).

Claudia’s sparkly showstopper at the roundtable in episode nine is a sold-out Stella McCartney shirt and trouser co-ord. 16Arlington’s luxe sequin blouse or Sister Jane’s sequin detail top can recreate the look; pair with jeans and sparkly heels for an effortless, -inspired party season look.

Tension is mounting as the celebrity series draws to a close. For the scarecrow mission, where all three traitors were ironically elected the most trustworthy, Claudia plumped for another hero outerwear piece. If Givenchy’s shearling jacket is out of budget, opt for similar styles from M&S or New Look.
Claudia paired the jacket with barrel-leg Nili Lotan trousers (Uniqlo’s are similar) and her go-to Miu Miu lace-up boots, just like this affordable Schuh pair.

For the roundtable which ended on a cliffhanger, Claudia wore a The Kooples Peter Pan collar dress with contrast piping. Albaray’s mini dress or Miss Selfridges’s frock achieves a similar look for less.

After a cliffhanger ending on episode six – would Ross or Jerry yawn and be murdered in plain sight? – I was on equally tenterhooks to see how Claudia ups the sartorial ante as the celebrity series nears its crescendo.
For episode seven, the presenter opted for an androgynous rust tweed suit, styled with an orange tie and matching socks. Sadly for those looking to recreate the striking look, the suit is a bespoke number from Barrington Ayre, a tailor who also created a suit for James Blunt in the series. Mango’s structured wool suit is a sharp alternative, while Reiss’s brick red suit is closer in colour.
The fringed loafers hail from Church’s, one of Claudia’s go-to luxury brands, but these M&S brogues are a stellar swap-in.

For the roundtable in episode six, Claudia turned to one of her go-to British designers, Bella Freud. The full-Freud ensemble consisted of a check suit jacket, matching trousers and a silk pink shirt with the androgynous addition of a tie. Mango’s navy tailored suit and River Island’s pink satin shirt offer up a similarly sharp look.

Claudia championed Barbour again in the mission, sporting the Scottish brand’s slim waxed jacket (£279.99, Barbour.com). Her stylist Sinead paired the jacket with a Celine striped knit in the same colour palette as this more affordable French Connection jumper (£59, Frenchconnection.com). The combat trousers hailed from designer label Nili Lotan, but Asos’s are similar (£36, Asos.com). The presenter wore her trusty Miu Miu distressed brown boots for the occasion – try these M&S’s alternatives.

We’re used to seeing Claudia in a pair of skin-tight Spanx – but the presenter has stepped outside her comfort zone for episode five. Styling a pair of balloon trousers from Comme Des Garçons with the luxury label’s matching Buckled Cotton Shirt, the look strikes a balance between comfortable and fashion-forward. For the mission, Claudia wore one of her loudest looks to date, pairing a fax fur trapper hat from Depop with a sold-out coat from the M&S x 16Arlington collaboration.
Alternatively, I’d opt for this similarly brown maxi design (£150, Marksandspencer.com) and this matching faux fur hat (£26, Marksandspencer.com). Beneath hero outerwear, wear M&S’s balloon trousers with H&M’s tie detail black shirt.

In a characteristically layered look, Claudia is wearing a Johnstons of Elgin's Clan Grey Argyle Cashmere Tank over the top of a Thierry Colson Slava Puff Sleeve Cotton Blouse. This Next £32 vest paired with Sezane’s ruffled shirt creates a similar ensemble.
Her pair of on-trend slim black trousers look identical to this style from H&M, while these Office loafers are a cheaper alternative to her Church's Buckle-Detail Fringe Loafers.

A preppy look that’s easily replicated for the office, Claudia opted for a black pleated midi skirt from one of her go-to labels, Le Kilt, with a pink Comme Des Garçons's Cotton-Poplin Shirt. A pair of Grenson black brogues completes the smart ensemble,

One of Claudia’s most punk-infused looks yet, the presenter wore a Chopova Lowena Arabesque Knee Skirt – this Sandro number creates a similar look (£269.99, Selfridges.com) –and a Judy Clark Ebony Puff Sleeve Knitted Jumper. H&M’s shoulder padded knit is a great high street alternative (£35, Hm.com). For the mission, Claudia shrugged on a showstopping 16Arlington Shearling Jacket.


Claudia upped the ante of her looks with this gothic ensemble. The knitted vest with metallic detailing hails from the independent knitwear label Genevieve Sweeny (£212, Genevievesweeney.com). The presenter wore the vest over a With Nothing Underneath white shirt with exaggerated cuffs (£120, Withnothingunderneath.com). The dramatic brocade black skirt is a Connolly number (£1,200, Connollyengland.com) – but this Karen Millen style achieves a similar look (£111, Karenmillen.com).

For the mission, Claudia embraced tartan once again in an Alexander McQueen skirt with a white ruffled lining (£649, Flannels.com). This take from Barbour (£159, Anthropologie.com) is equally stylish.
She paired the statement skirt with a Paul Smith wool black bomber jacket (£520, Paulsmith.com), which looks near-identical to this Topshop style (£70, Asos.com). Adding black tights, she wore a pair of Church's brogues (£547, Flannels.com) at breakfast before swapping to chunky black boots – potentially her go-to Bottega pair – in the mission.
Claudia opted for a heritage Scottish brand for the mission in episode two: Barbour. The waxed Marron jacket (£269.99, Barbour.com) combines style with functionality, boasting a waterproof, insulating and timeless design. She styled the jacket with a pair of Brora wrist warmers (£65, Broraonline.com).
For the first roundtable of the season, McKeefry styled Claudia in a black Shushu Tong drop waist dress – this Karen Millen dress achieves a similar look (£125, Karenmillen.co.uk) – over her go-to Cos polo neck (£45, Cos.com).

While deliberating who to choose as her traitors, Claudia wore her trusty pair of Spanx leggings (£30, Spanx.com). This is a signature Traitors look, with basics on the bottom and drama on the top. Sinead styled Claudia in a Commes De Garcons ruffled blouse beneath a structured blazer. This Sezane blouse (£100, Sezane.co.uk) offers a more everyday take, particularly paired with this similarly fitted Mango blazer (£49.99, Mango.com).

Claudia’s hero winter coat hails from Scottish label SKYE By Brora. The wool bomber jacket (£545, Broraonline.co.uk) perfectly marries style and practicality, with buckle detailing and a flattering boxy cut. Sinead paired the statement wool bomber jacket with vintage Vivienne Westwood trousers, characterised by their skirt over-layer. The tartan style perfectly encapsulates aesthetic – and is easy to replicate on the high street. Try this Albaray wool coat (£198, Albaray.co.uk) with Boden’s plaid trousers (£98, Boden.co.uk).
