The 8 Most Stylish TV Shows to Bless the Small Screen

In addition to creating the most talked-about TV show of 2019, Phoebe Waller-Bridge also managed to send sales of black jumpsuits soaring when she unleashed series two of Fleabag on the world. According to John Lewis’s annual retail report, shoppers were inspired by the tailored jumpsuit the anti-heroine wears to attend the most awkward family dinner in small screen history in the season opener. And it’s far from the first instance of a much-loved show becoming a source of sartorial inspiration – as illustrated by eight of Vogue’s favourite stylish TV series below. Stream now, shop later.

The Crown

Sure, Claire Foy won two Golden Globes, but the real breakout star of The Crown was Vanessa Kirby’s wardrobe. Her turn as the fragile, rebellious and impossibly chic Princess Margaret saw Kirby’s artfully knotted silk scarves, cigarette pants and cat-eye sunglasses steal every scene she was in. Full marks, too, for her formalwear (more daring than her duty-bound sister’s), and her commitment to a signature accessory: in Margaret’s case, an ever-present, and admittedly rather elegant cigarette holder.

The most stylish TV shows of 2017 - and how to get the look

We're not ashamed to admit we've been glued to our TV screens this year; whether it's been binge-watching The Crown season 2 in recent weeks, learning about marine life and saving the planet one plastic water bottle at a time in Blue Planet 2 or watching Stranger Things season 2 from behind a cushion.

And all this screen time isn't just whiling away the hours and providing optimum water cooler chat- it's influencing our wardrobes and designers, too (Louis Vuitton's Stranger Things t-shirt was a peak example of this). Here are the series which have made The Telegraph fashion team reconsider their wardrobes this year...

Blue Planet 2

The TV programme that has most influenced my wardrobe this year is Blue Planet II. Now bear with me. I don't mean that I've started wearing polar bear fur, or fish leather shoes (it's a thing, look it up), in fact quite the opposite.

2017 has been the year that I've started to really hold myself accountable for my environmental choices at home and in my day-to-day life. But seeing the graphic impact that our problem with plastic and waste has had on our (blue) planet, my resolution for 2018 is to make sure it extends into my shopping habits. I want to buy less, but better. With a focus on sustainable, ethical and environmentally friendly pieces.

Luckily, there are whole host of brands and websites to help navigate this. Instagram account @the.ecoiste, curated by super stylist Rebecca Corbin-Murray showcases brands that effect change. And Rêve en Vert and Maison de Mode, both multi-brand online stores that only sell fashion forward brands that adhere to their ethos: Fair, local, organic, or re-made. The offering is so good that 2018 sets to be the year that sustainability in fashion goes mainstream.
