Saltburn outfits

It’s the film that’s got everyone talking – especially that plug hole scene (iykyk). Whatever your views are on Emerald Fennel’s dark comedy meets psychological thriller, there’s no denying that the Saltburn outfits slayed. Set in 2006, the movie delivers tonnes of nostalgia on the fashion front. The outfits are a fabulous ode to noughties fashion, including bootcut jeans, Abercrombie and Fitch rugby shirts, Ugg boots and Juicy Couture tracksuits.

It was of no surprise when we learned that Saltburn’s costume designer is Emmy-nominated Sophie Canale, who worked on the Netflix series Bridgerton. Although they’re set centuries apart, it’s clear Canale is a pro at using the power of dressing to express a character’s class and status in British society. Her research for the Saltburn outfits involved digging through the archives of Jane Norman, Miss Sixty and Kate Moss’ line for Topshop – what a throwback! As well as drawing inspiration from famous noughties looks worn by Prince Harry, Kate Moss, Amy Winehouse and Sienna Miller.

If you fancy bringing back the noughties into your wardrobe, we’ve found where you can shop some of the most iconic looks from Saltburn. Including some of the exact pieces used in the film, so you can recreate your very own murder on the dancefloor, not that that scene required much clothing (we’re still not over it either)!

Best iconic noughties-inspired outfits at a glance:

Felix's rugby shirts

To emulate his young aristocrat status, Felix’s collegiate looks are inspired by none other than Prince Harry and Prince William circa the early 2000s. During the film, Jacob Elordi’s character was pictured wearing preppy brands including Polo Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger and Abercrombie and Fitch, all mainly sourced via eBay, Depop and Vinted.

Sophie Canale, Saltburn's costume designer, revealed that Felix's wardrobe featured Abercrombie & Fitch polo shirts. While the exact one he wore is now sold out, there are several similar styles available to shop now. So you can recreate the Prince Harry and William 00s-inspired look.

Felix’s laidback linen shirt

For Felix to appear ultra-comfortable and confident in his clothes, Canale ensured they had been washed several times for that ‘worn in’ look. Cue this slightly crumpled linen shirt, which we must admit does look rather effortless. Braided bracelets are a must too for that ‘just got back from my gap year’ look.

To get that slightly wrinkled and crumpled vibe that Felix pulls off so well, opt for 100% linen. This Uniqlo shirt is an amazing price for the quality you get.

If you're looking to splash the cash like Felix, this linen shirt from Reiss is giving high-class Saltburn vibes. While we haven't been able to track down the exact one used on set, this shade of lemon yellow is pretty much identical to the one worn in the film.

Venetia’s fringed jacket

For Felix’s sister Venetia, played by Alison Oliver, Canale took inspiration from Kate Moss, Lily Allen, Amy Winehouse and Kiera Knightley – a dreamy line-up. Her party-gal looks are giving cliché Y2K and we are very here for it. Our favourite might have to be the festival-ready fit she wears to play a game of tennis – and drink champagne of course. In this scene, she is wearing a sequin fringed jacket from Nasty Gal, that is still available to shop now!

Price: £65.40 (Was £109)

Since Saltburn aired, this Nasty Gal jacket is sadly almost always out of stock. It's worth checking though as we've noticed the odd size coming back into stock. Run don't walk if you want to emulate Venetia's Kate Moss at Glastonbury vibes.

Saltburn outfits Shein The Blackat Colorblock Metallic Tiered Fringe Open Front Sequin Coat
Price: £26.49 (Was £30.49)

If you can't get your hands on the exact Nasty Gal jacket, this one from Shein isn't far off. And for just over £25 it's an absolute steal too. It'll be perfect for festival season later this year, or like Venetia proves it's great for a game of tennis too.

Venetia completes her Y2K outfit with a pair of pink heart-shaped sunglasses and we are low-key obsessed. Luckily we can buy a very similar pair from Shein to channel the same iconic look.

Venetia’s sequin trousers

Venetia’s flare for anything high-shine and sparkly is evident again when she wears a metallic pink bralette top and star print sequin trousers. Luckily her look is super easy to recreate on the high street so you too can channel noughties fashion at its best. Don’t forget to lay the black eyeliner on thick, à la Lily Allen style.

Price: £41.40 (Were £69)

We don't have confirmation on where Venetia's amazing star print trousers are from, but we've found an amazing dupe from our faves Nasty Gal. And at the time of writing this all sizes are still in stock, but we wouldn't hang around if you too love her sequin style.

Price: £13.99 (Was £19.99)

If you want to recreate Venetia's full look then you'll also need a pink metallic crop top to complete the sparkly ensemble. Metallics are actually set to be a big trend for 2024, so bagging this bargain bandeau top now will have you sorted for several summer fits.

Pamela’s gothic chic

Saltburn’s costume designer, Sophie Canale, gives Carey Mulligan’s character Pamela a more unique and avant-garde look, with lots of gothic and Victorian references. Her wardrobe features an eclectic mix of archival looks from the 2000s runways, which make for a feast for the eyes. Including a leather mini dress from the 2007 Christopher Kane runway which we absolutely love. Canale also used lots of Butler and Wilson jewellery to complete Pamela’s edgy looks.

Elspeth’s boho waistcoat

It’s hard to pick our best-dressed character from Saltburn, but Elspeth played by Rosamund Pike is definitely up there. Inspired by Sienna Miller and Laura Bailey’s outfits from the noughties, Canale wanted Elspeth’s outfits to reflect her ex-model fashion background. To look polished, but still relaxed and bohemian. Her looks from the film feature a mix of archival catwalk pieces, vintage finds and even a jacket from the director Emerald Fennel’s wardrobe.

Layer in style with this pretty embroidered waistcoat from high street faves River Island. We'll be wearing over a crisp white shirt like Elspeth for a classy yet bohemian ensemble. It's made using responsibly sourced cotton too - it's a win win.

Add a truly special and unique piece to your wardrobe with this denim waistcoat from female-founded, eco-conscious brand Seventy + Mochi. It's an investment buy, but with gorgeous contrast stitching and frill-trim sleeves and neckline - it's giving fashion-forward vibes.

Elspeth’s high-fashion frock

The matriarch of the manor certainly looked the part. We fell head over heels for Elspeth’s purple off-the-shoulder gown, by Germain designer Talbot Runhof. While the real one will set you back a few thousand, we’ve shopped around to find a high street equivalent that delivers a similar Saltburn vibe for a fraction of the price – you can thank us later.

So which Saltburn outfit is your fave? We're thinking it's time for the 90s revival to move aside and 00s to take centre stage. Although, there are maybe some things we wouldn't bring back... footless tights and layers of bright beaded necklaces come to mind!
