Claudia Winkleman's signature style on BBC One's The Traitors—oversized layers, tartan, cape jackets, and statement boots—is set to dominate AW26 wardrobes again, and early episodes of The Celebrity Traitors already feature vintage-inspired fashion moments.
Affordable alternatives to designer jackets
Winkleman wore a chocolate-brown Skye by Brora Wool Bomber Jacket on a mission, priced at £545. A cheaper alternative is H&M's Oversized Felted Jacket at £49.99, featuring similar buckle detailing, a belted hem, and button cuffs.
For another mission, she wore a 16 Arlington Nofre Shearling Jacket, nearly sold out at £2,223. A more accessible option is Per Una's £75 faux-fur reversible bomber jacket—fluffy, cosy, and reversible, with a cotton finish on one side and plush faux fur on the other, plus a funnel neckline and button fastenings.
Knitwear and kilt dupes
Winkleman paired her shearling with a pleated skirt from Chopova Lowena and a black Ebony Puff Sleeve Knitted Jumper by Scottish designer Judy R Clark, now sold out. Similar styles include Albaray's Chocolate Gingham Kilt in dark brown, a midi-length pleated skirt with leather strap adjusters, and ONLY Women's Onlmelita Top, which closely matches the designer knit.
At the roundtable, she wore a sold-out pink Comme des Garçons Girl cotton poplin shirt. Uniqlo's Oxford Boxy Shirt is a fraction of the price, available in all sizes, and a great dupe. She paired it with a Le Kilt Black Oban Midi Kilt; White Stuff's Kali Flannel Midi Kilt Skirt at £79 offers a similar look.
Footwear and finishing touches
Winkleman's footwear includes polished black Grenson brogues and Bottega Veneta's Lug Leather Ankle Boots with chunky soles. Her knitwear is heritage-inspired, layered over crisp shirts and brocade skirts. While her Genevieve Sweeney Lin Lambswool Jacquard Knitted Vest costs £250, Cos's Sparkly Bouclé-Knit Vest, with metallic threads and under £90, is a comparable option.
From statement knits to chunky boots, belt-buckled midi kilts, and faux fur jackets, many of Winkleman's Celebrity Traitors pieces can be emulated without designer price tags.
