For the past nine years, Game of Thrones has given us an amazing story and some of the most memorable characters in TV history. To go along with those characters, we’ve been blessed with the impeccable costumes designed by Michele Clapton.

Each character has their own distinct style and has had their own standout costume moments throughout the show’s run. (We covered these in depth in our Game of Thrones Countdown post series.) Today we will be focusing on the iconic costumes worn by the show’s five leading ladies (only some of whom remain as of this writing — but we won’t say any more than that!).

Whether or not you’re a fan of how Season 8 has gone so far, you have to admit that tonight’s final episode ends an overall incredible era of TV. So let’s toast to the end of Game of Thrones with these looks!

Sansa Stark

Out of all of the characters, Sansa has changed the most from seasons 1-8. She started off as a little girl who only wished to become queen; now she is now a fierce politician and a great player of the Game of Thrones. Sansa’s style has naturally changed, too.

Today, let’s get inspired by the iconic armored look she wears in the final season. This look embodies who her character has become. The garment consists of a structured leather bodice with plain black sleeves, attached to a plain black skirt. Copy it with an LBD, black purse, and killer heeled boots.

Cersei Lannister

Cersei, in the more recent seasons of the show, has taken on a hardened persona. As she no longer has her children to bring out the good in her, she has become a fearsome woman to behold.

Around season seven, Cersei’s style morphed into full-on black ensembles with metalwork along the shoulders and collars.
