The Netflix series Sex Education is one of my favorite shows right now. I describe it as an ’80s movie infused with sex and female empowerment. (Just watch the powerful bus scene in season two, and you will know what I am talking about.)

This show is a must-watch, not only for its content but for its female characters and wacky fashion.

This show boasts quite a few perfectly imperfect, complex female characters. There is Maeve, the rebel girl with a heart of gold; Aimee, the cute, bubbly girl, who is the definition of a cinnamon roll; Lily, the outspoken Sci-Fi nerd; and Ola, the kind-hearted new girl; among others.

To see how you can get the modern ’80s looks of these badass women, keep reading for our Sex Education fashion guide.

Sex Education Fashion: Maeve

Maeve is an intelligent, rebellious girl with only good intentions. She comes from a troubled past, but she never lets that stop her from enjoying life.

Her rebellious personality certainly comes out in her style: She is always dressed in her signature color black and is often wearing a leather jacket along with fishnet tights. Maeve’s look is the perfect cross between ’80s grunge and modern-day streetwear, which makes her look perfect for your day off.

To get Maeve’s look, stick with the classic grunge vibe. Start with a flannel shirt or a printed button-up top, and then layer it under a leather jacket. Then throw on a pair of high-waisted shorts, some lace-up boots, and fishnets, all of which Maeve loves.
