The mob wife aesthetic is everywhere but what exactly is it and how can you ace it?

2024 is fully upon us and the first fashion trend to blow up on social media worldwide is a blast of fresh air compared to the quiet, posh looks (remember quiet luxury?) we’ve seen lately. This time, we’re ditching subtlety for a bolder, messier, and unapologetically fierce vibe – the mob-wife aesthetic; and it’s just the dose of fun and energy we’ve all been craving. So, what exactly is this mob-wife trend, you ask? Think fierce animal prints, blingtastic jewellery, black leather that shines, and (arguably the most important ensemble piece this season) a fabulous faux fur coat that screams luxury.

Fashion’s favourite girls like Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner and Dua Lipa, have already given this trend their thumbs-up. And with the 25th anniversary of the Sopranos just gone, this resurgence couldn’t have come at a better time. As Carmela Soprano herself taught us, clothes only tell half the story. It’s all about that “messy bun, who cares?” approach to hair and a glam makeup look that packs a punch, smoky eyes and red lips included. The mob-wife is flashy, she’s loaded, and she wants you to know it the second you lay eyes on her. She’s a walking statement, and she’s owning it.

The Allure of Mob Wife Fashion: Why is it gaining popularity now?

This style is highlighted by pop culture’s ability to sway viewers through movies and television series that frequently have attractive mob wife-type characters, according to designer Shilpi Gupta. Not to mention, those looking for a sophisticated and vintage style are drawn to the fashion trend’s elegant and classic components.

In addition, social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok have emerged to be significant players in the field of fashion, boosting its exposure and appeal. The mob wife look is defined by a strong and dynamic manner that gives women a chance to exhibit their authority and refinement while also expressing themselves in an exquisite and bold way, explained Gupta.

How to Ace the Mob Wife Look

According to designer Shilpi Gupta, elite clothing, iconic silhouettes, striking accessories, refined aesthetics, evocative cultural symbolism, confidence, and charisma are all important components of this visual language.

“The signature vibe is defined by conventional styles like pencil skirts, blazers, and fitted bodices, as well as striking accents featuring huge, statement jewellery and expensive clutches. Folks who follow this fashion trend have the option to use a few or all of these aspects to create a honed, exquisite appearance. This could include defined eyebrows, bold red lips, winged eyeliner, strappy, elegant high heels, self-confidence, and personality that oozes a sense of power and effect,” Gupta said.
