There is a lot to love about The Politician on Netflix. The show is well-written, quirky, and, of course, The Politician is also full of fashion-forward leading ladies in jaw-dropping outfits.

The show tells the story of Payton Hobart, played by the incredible Ben Platt, who is running for student body president – and perhaps one day – President of the United States.

Throughout the show, Payton faces political triumphs and failures. The characters that he surrounds himself with are there to pull him up when he falls, but they also tear him down when he succeeds.

Undoubtedly, the strongest characters are the women of the show. Each is a shining light in her own right.

To get the styles of the women from The Politician, keep scrolling! The following five looks are guaranteed to make you feel like a political badass.

When it comes to putting together an outfit based on Astrid from The Politician, channel the 1960’s.

Start with a fun, print mini skirt and a silky blouse decorated with a bow. Add a pair of heeled loafers and don’t forget to rock them with some knee-high socks.

To make sure you get the full Astrid, pull your hair back with a bow or scrunchie. Then grab a Chanel-esque bag to make the look extra polished.

Alice

Alice starts off the show as Payton’s loyal girlfriend, who is practically tailor-made to be a First Lady. She is a stone-cold woman who is always willing to do what it takes to ensure Payton comes out on top, even if that means breaking her own heart.

Her looks are always professional. She mostly wears button-up silk blouses, colorful pencil skirts, and pastel cardigans draped over her shoulders.
