I Can't Stop Thinking About Kristen Bell’s Nobody Wants This Outfits—I’ve Tracked Down Every Single One
Kristen Bell’s on-screen wardrobe in Nobody Wants This has become an unexpected style masterclass—full of smart layering, tonal knits and quietly confident staples you’ll actually want to wear.


Every so often, a television series quietly sneaks its way into fashion conversations— and Nobody Wants This is one of them. Kristen Bell’s character, Joanne, might be juggling complicated relationships and razor-sharp one-liners, but her wardrobe channels that same wit and self-assuredness. It’s built on relaxed tailoring paired with worn-in denim, nostalgic knitwear made modern through clever styling, and a palette that favours warmth and depth over austerity. It’s the kind of dressing that feels deeply personal—composed, confident and quietly cool.
From the very first season, Joanne’s style has struck a chord. Her outfits sit somewhere between effortless minimalism and low-key polish. Last season, Bell’s Zara jeans went viral, but they were seamlessly mixed with premium pieces from Reformation, Maje and A.P.C. —a combination that perfectly mirrors her character’s understated sophistication. And if the trailer for season two is anything to go by, the looks are only getting chicer. The styling feels more refined, the palette more muted—soft taupes, buttery creams, with the occasional flash of colour, of course. Costume designer Negar Ali-Kline describes Joanne as “a woman who uses clothes to communicate without speaking”— and you can see it in every frame.
Of course, Bell makes it all entirely believable. There’s an ease to the way she wears these pieces, a quiet confidence that feels lived-in rather than styled, which is exactly why her Nobody Wants This style has resonated so widely.
