We let our zodiac signs determine if we should take a job, go on that trip or break up with that friend. Why not use it to help us get dressed? Through this series, we will explore how our zodiac sign can inspire and enrich our wardrobes and help us put our best fit forward.
When putting together a fire fit, no one does it quite like a Sagittarius. And this is not a dramatization. The final fire sign of the year, Sagittarius, brings the sartorial heat with masterful ease but striking precision. In true fire sign fashion, Sags are major risk-takers with a spirit of adventure that permeates every aspect of their lives — wardrobes included.
Sagittarius don’t limit themselves to the traditional style boundaries of gender or other pre-existing binaries when it comes to fashion and often interlope masculine and feminine silhouettes effortlessly.
But for as much fun as they like to have with their style, Sags are also known to be very about their business. So, it makes sense that many of our Sag-style savants are fond of suit-inspired clothing, often pulling in aspects of the corporate core aesthetic that’s had TikTok and runways in a business-coded chokehold.
Janelle Monae December 1, 1985
Janelle Monae is a true wiz when it comes to “putting that ish on,” and there’s no ifs, ands or buts about it. The “Yoga” singer is best known for their consistent affinity for tuxedo-style fits. Monae was rocking “men’s” formal wear long before it became a wide-sweeping trend. Blending the rigid structure of suits with exuberant patterns and prints sets the foundation of Monae’s fluid style. From cinched waistcoats to mega-padded jackets and bowties, Monae has been on this wave. Everyone else is just now catching up.
Zoë Kravitz December 1, 1988
If there was a spokesperson for edgy bohemian steez, it would be Zoë Kravitz. To be fair, it would likely be the entire Bonet/Kravitz lineage. They all have this effortless, cool way of dress that you can’t mimic even if you’re tired. Because that’s the crux of the allure — fluid interference. Unlike her parents, though, Zoë has had to maintain this unpretentious style during the hypervisible era of social media. Nevertheless, she’s kept a globally sought-after level of mystique through her fondness for minimalist designs and unassuming silhouettes. She’s The Row meets your local thrift store — in the best way possible.
Teyana Taylor December 10, 1990
Since first gracing our screens on My Super Sweet Sixteen, Teyana Taylor has been an undisputed style disruptor. So, it’s no surprise that 17 years later, she remains a bold, unapologetic fashion maverick. The mother of two is a true student of gender-blending fashion—her tomboy fits are streetwear gold, yet she can effortlessly switch to sultry looks like it’s second nature. And with the way she regularly blesses us with look-after stunning looks, it seems that turning heads is her full-time job.
Luka Sabbat November 26, 1997
First and foremost, Luka Sabbat IS fashion. See, long before he was playing Luca Hall on Grownish, he was walking in runway shows for Virgil Abloh and Tommy Hilfiger. And it’s not just that, Sabbat’s dad is fashion designer Clark Sabbat. Style is in his DNA. But Luka isn’t a regular nepo baby — he’s a cool nepo baby. His style is the epitome of rockstar-meets runway, accented perfectly by his affinity for worn-in graphic t-shirts, ultra-structured outerwear and some of the best denim in the game. His style can be surmised as “You can’t find this in the store,” and honestly, what’s cooler than that?
Tina Turner November 26, 1939
The “Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll,” Tina Turner, was the backbone of the modern rockstar aesthetic. Her famous shag is a mood board motif for the current mullet resurgence, and while her style is beautifully retro, she was always ahead of the curve when it came to fashion. From leather cut-out dresses to lingerie-inspired mini gowns, Turner was a pioneer of edgy dressing through the groovy haze of the 60s and 70s.
Regina Hall December 12, 1970
Regina Hall is my undisputed queen of comedy, and I will be taking no questions on the matter. But hilarity aside, she is also extremely well-dressed. Her fits all follow a similar pattern of collared blouses, waist-cinching silhouettes and bell-shaped skirts. But even though the framework of her fits is formulaic, she is not wholly risk averse as she often weaves patterns and prints into her everyday style.
Chanel Iman December 1, 1990
Models and fashion are inextricably linked, so we certainly expect a certain level of wardrobe prowess from these figures. But Chanel Iman truly takes this to the next level and has us all rethinking what we consider to be mom-style. This looks like thigh-grazing mini dresses, cozy athleisure and the coveted “model-off-duty” uniform (blazer, basic t-shirt, jeans and heels).
Trina December 3, 1978
“Da Baddest,” and they don’t call her that for nothing. Trina is Miami-style personified. This looks like bright prints, thigh-highs galore and textural experimentation. Think full denim fits, glittery looks and furs on furs on furs. And even though she’s a rapper, her style does have a few punk elements as well. Our favorite rockstar.
Lauren London December 5, 1984
Lauren London is the epitome of resilience and strength, and her wardrobe strongly reflects those principles. This looks like consistently repping her city, opting for Dicky-esque sets and tracksuits that are so LA it’s tangible. She’s also good for ultra-glam all-black looks, including blazer dresses and thigh-baring asymmetrical gowns.
Offset December 14, 1991
Offset’s foray into the world of fashion has been fascinating to watch. He’s pushed past the logo-heavy, designer-first swag he debuted when we first met him as a member of the Migos rap trio many years ago. Now, he is a bonafide fashion figure with a few runways under his belt, and a style catalog that pulls from a combo of Blade: Trinity and Michael Jackson. Not a bad combo.
