An Ode to the Fashion of Animal Crossing

An Ode to the Fashion of Animal Crossing

The announcement of the Animal Crossing: New Horizons game as well as the limited-edition Animal Crossing Nintendo Switch has recently had everyone abuzz about Animal Crossing again. People have fallen in love with the game’s charming aesthetics, lovable characters, and calming game-play.

Particularly notable is the important role that fashion plays in the game. Players are able to dress their characters as well as their animal friends in a variety of clothes and accessories that are categorized into different styles: Sporty, Cute, Iconic, Rock ‘n’ Roll, Official, Ornate, Flashy, Modern, Historical, and Basic. Animal Crossing may not be a game specifically about fashion, but it’s hard to deny the important role that fashion plays in the universe of the game. Here are some of the best dressed characters of the game.

Isabelle has been making waves on social media after it was discovered that her most commonly worn outfits highly resemble clothing sold at Gucci. Animal Crossing is careful to create a diverse range in the affordability of its clothing, from discounted second-hand clothing to high-end clothing. Representing the higher end of that range, isabelle always looks put-together in the cutest way. Look at that yellow cardigan: you can tell she’s ready for business.

Goldie

Goldie’s outfit in and of itself isn’t particularly special, but it matches her skin tone and body shape perfectly, so you can tell she knows how to dress. Goldie knows how to serve looks with just a simple outfit.

Fauna

This sleeveless duffel coat looks amazing on Fauna. It manages to be a unique look without being too out there, and it complements her perfectly.

Goose

Goose isn’t afraid to stand out in this bold number. It’s got a great combination of colors and patterns - we love to see it!

Muffy

The perfect goth look with the perfect pop of color. Muffy has her aesthetic down to a T, and we’re here for it.

Molly

The color, ribbon, and buttons on this blouse create a look that manages to be just the right amount of preppy. Molly looks incredibly put-together yet casual at the same time.

Diva

Diva lives up to her name with this colorful outfit. The pattern of her dress is a little bit questionable, but she’s able to pull it off and adds the perfect finishing touch by coordinating her eyeshadow with the pops of teal from her dress.

Egbert

This color-blocked shirt featuring warm hues is incredible. It matches Egbert perfectly, and you can just tell from his look and posture that he knows he’s pulling it off.

Elise

I have to respect how well Elise’s outfit, glasses, and lipstick coordinate. Her top is a fresh take on polka dots that incorporates different colors together nicely.

Broccolo

Broccolo further proves that Animal Crossing fashion is at its best with color-blocked outfits. The colors and pattern of his outfit are somewhat reminiscent of Lego blocks, but he manages to make this look work.
