There’s no way to talk about Mob Wife style without examining the expressive, over-the-top, iconic-down-to-the-accessories wardrobes of the women of The Sopranos. It’s not all fur coats, leather, and animal print despite what you may have seen trending lately. Are we talking everyday Mob Wife or special occasion Mob Wife or, God forbid, funereal Mob Wife? There are aesthetics within aesthetics and you can go skin-tight Adriana for a night out and then pivot to a Carmela-as-hostess for brunch the next day. Thanks to the layers of costume design on this must-see show, whether you’re channeling family dinner, christening, workout, or trip to Italy there is abundant inspiration.

Adriana La Cerva

Starting with Adriana because she has the Mob Wifeist outfits (despite not being married to Christofuuuhhh). No one pulls off a leather jacket ($528) or sheer top ($85) quite like she does. I can imagine her casually lounging in these snakeskin pants ($50) before changing into a revealing dress ($169) and these gold hoops ($125). Adriana is a heels ($128) girlie no matter what — I can’t remember a single time she wore flats (except maybe when she wore sneakers and hot pants to play tennis). This tiger print shirt ($45) would be right up Adriana’s alley paired with a leather skirt, Big Hair — you know she’s an expert with the diffuser ($189)—and a dramatic lip ($26).

Carmela Soprano

Credit: HBO

The Queen Bee, Carmela, thinks of herself as the Jackie O of mob wives: unafraid of pastels ($145) and happy to showcase her feminine side. So devout that her priest is known to sleep over (see season 1 episode 5), Carmela’s must-have accessory is a gold cross necklace ($590) followed shortly by a Bumpit. This respectable mother loves a matching skirt ($168)/jacket ($298) combo for special occasions, but you’ll see her in a robe ($88) just as often. Other go-to choices are clingy turtlenecks ($75), sleeveless sweaters ($70), and embellished tanks ($90). You’ll never catch Carm with unlacquered nails — French tips ($15) most of the time.

Rosalie Aprile

Credit: HBO

To my mind, Rosalie dresses—plunging necklines ($125), layered ($190) chunky ($85) gold chains, huge rings ($180) — how Adriana would have if she didn’t end up lying with the fishes. Suffering was built into Rosalie’s character (she’s a widow from episode 1) and that’s reflected in the dark color palette of her wardrobe, which I’d describe as mob business casual. Can’t you picture her stepping out to dinner at Nuovo Vesuvio in these mahogany boots ($229), hip-hugging pants ($345), and the busiest-print-imaginable silk top ($179)? Even when grieving, Rosalie is always perfectly coiffed with scarlet nails ($21) and bouffant-adjacent hair (which you can achieve with a thickening lotion ($14) and volumizing spray ($35)).

Gloria Trillo

Credit: HBO

Gloria is THAT goomar (the one who threw a London broil at Tony). A Mercedes sales rep, Gloria dressed to impress in all skin-tight, all black, and always showed off her legs with sheer tights ($35). Unlike many other goomars, Gloria was not a kept woman, and her fur ($658) and trips to Morocco were all on her own dime. Her footwear of choice was a timeless pointy boot ($260) paired with a curve-skimming dress and leather outerwear ($1,954). Had she been wearing these viper earrings, maybe Tony would have anticipated Gloria’s threats to tell his wife and daughter about their affair. But he was probably too distracted by her matching lingerie ($94) sets.

Dr. Jennifer Melfi

Credit: HBO 

Tony dreams about his therapist (yes, those kinds of dreams). She dreams about him, too. Even though Dr. Melfi is always covered up in blazers ($288), tailored trousers ($126), and turtlenecks ($85), she has a certain sex appeal. Maybe it’s the understated stud earrings ($75) or her sensible, not-too-high heels ($250), but she’s an undeniably self-possessed woman. You just know Dr. Melfi is the type to have a rigorous skincare routine ($65) that she never deviates from. But who knows — maybe Jennifer is capable of channeling a little Karen Hill now and again.
