Home / Style Guides / Stranger Things Outfits
The easiest Stranger Things outfits come from real 80s-style clothes. Eleven is a pink dress, a jacket and white sneakers. Steve and Robin match in nautical Scoops Ahoy uniforms. Eddie is a Hellfire Club-style raglan tee, a denim vest and dark jeans. Each one works on its own or as part of a group costume.
Stranger Things costumes work because the characters dress like real kids in a small 1980s town. That means you don't need a costume pack. Thrift-store basics and a few Amazon pieces get you most of the way, and you can wear the clothes again after Halloween.
Below are the four looks people search for most, the signature pieces that make each one recognizable, and a generic shopping list for each. We've also built full guides for Max Mayfield and Jim Hopper.
Eleven's Season 1 look is the one most people picture: soft, simple and slightly too big, like it was borrowed.
Keep it plain. No jewelry, no statement shoes. For a nosebleed, a little red face paint under one nostril is all you need.

Steve has two great options: the everyday 80s heartthrob look, or the Scoops Ahoy ice cream uniform from Season 3, which doubles as a duo costume with Robin.
The hair is half the costume. Blow-dry it up and back, and use plenty of hairspray.
Quick answer: What does Steve Harrington wear?
Robin works best as Steve's Scoops Ahoy partner, but her later everyday look is easy to build alone.
The same nautical uniform as Steve: sailor-style top, neckerchief, sailor cap, shorts or skirt, and a name tag.
Robin's look is relaxed and a little mismatched. Layer, roll the sleeves and don't tuck everything in.
Quick answer: What does Robin Buckley wear?
Eddie is the metalhead who runs the Hellfire Club, and his look is built from layers of black, denim and hardware.
Licensed Hellfire Club tees exist, so check the listing says it's officially licensed if that matters to you. Patches are the easiest place to make the vest your own.

Eleven and Steve are the easiest. Eleven needs a pink dress, a jacket, tube socks and white sneakers. Steve needs a polo or henley, light-wash jeans, a windbreaker and big hair. Both can be built from everyday clothes.
In Season 1, Eleven wears a pink collared dress with a jacket over it, striped tube socks and white sneakers. It's simple and slightly oversized, as if borrowed.
Scoops Ahoy is the ice cream shop where Steve and Robin work in Season 3. Their uniform is nautical: a sailor-style top, neckerchief, sailor cap and shorts, with a name tag. It makes an easy matching duo costume.
Eddie wears a Hellfire Club raglan tee, a denim battle vest with patches over a black leather jacket, dark ripped jeans, a studded belt or wallet chain, chunky rings and a bandana in his back pocket.
Eleven, Steve, Robin and Eddie make a strong group of four. Each look is distinct, and all of them can be built from real clothes rather than costume packs.
