How the 'Bridgerton' cast dresses in real life compared to their characters

In the first two seasons of "Bridgerton," Portia Featherington always dressed her youngest daughter in frilly yellow gowns covered in sequins and flowers.

And that's not to mention how Penelope's red hair was usually styled atop her head or in tight curls.

In season three, however, the character undergoes a transformation. She ditches vibrant colors for more natural hues of blue and green, and she lets her hair down in loose waves.

The actor, 37, has blonde hair in real life and an even better fashion sense.

She regularly wears designer gowns at fashion shows, daring minidresses, and blazers styled with no bottoms. Standout balloon sleeves have also become a regular part of her wardrobe.

Suits and vests have been Colin's staple pieces throughout all three seasons of the show. He wears them with billowing tops, tall boots, and ruffled ties.

He also famously styles his hair curly and with sideburns.

Styled by Holly White, Newton has become a leading man both on screen and off.

He regularly wears classic suits with fresh twists, like ones that feature sparkling button-up shirts or trench coats instead of blazers.

The character often alternates between pastel day dresses and sparkling gowns with diamond accessories.

Her makeup is usually minimal, and her light-brown hair is typically kept in half-up half-down hairstyles that showcase her short bangs.

The 29-year-old actor seems fond of minidresses, bold pantsuits, and crop tops — all of which stray far from her character's fashion.

Her makeup preferences also seem slightly bolder in real life, while her hair — which she typically wears in loose waves — is typically a vibrant red shade.

The fan-favorite character also wears his hair short with a matching beard.

The 36-year-old mostly wears suits and tuxedos on red carpets and knit sweaters for more casual appearances.

His hair is also a bit longer in real life, but his beard is almost exactly the same as his character's.

She wears sparkling gowns, diamonds, and elegant colors for balls, of course, but she typically sticks with simple dresses and jewelry for other occasions.

The character also frequently wears her hair in updo styles with flowers or clips, rosy blush, and minimal eye makeup.

The 29-year-old could arguably be considered a new daring-fashion icon. She wears lots of sheer garments, dresses with cutouts, and neon colors.

She also appears fond of dramatic cat eyes and her hair worn in long waves.

The viscount's hair is curled with sideburns, while he keeps his face clean-shaven. On occasion, he accessorizes with top hats.

The actor, 36, is often photographed wearing bright colors and a short beard — the complete opposite of his "Bridgerton" character.

She almost always wears pink or purple, and her hair is frequently embellished with flowers.

As for her makeup, the young character usually dons glowing highlighter and pink lipstick.

The 27-year-old isn't afraid to experiment with brighter colors, miniskirts, and tops with cutouts.

Her makeup is also a bit different, as the actor often wears smoky eyes and vibrant red lipstick.

He pairs vests with loose-fitting shirts and cravats, and his hair is often swooped to one side.

Though the 35-year-old typically wears suits to red-carpet events, he often pairs them with sneakers. He also sometimes wears bomber jackets and more casual pants.

His hair, however, is wavy and similar to that of Benedict.

Pastel shades of purple and blue seem to be her go-to colors, while ruffled fabrics and diamond necklaces are some of her other favorite staples.

Her makeup, on the other hand, is usually shiny with hints of pink and purple.

At the "Bridgerton" season two premiere, for example, the 54-year-old actor wore a mint dress with a brighter green poncho on top. She also wore her hair in braids atop her head.

Her evening gowns are a lot like the ones her daughters wear: purple, sparkly, and complemented with long gloves.

But even in scenes when Violet is seen at home, she still wears elegant dresses and pearls.

The actor, 56, often wears all-black outfits with a pop of color — like red lipstick or blue shoes.

She wears simple dresses with minimal accessories and a half-up half-down hairstyle in most episodes.

In 2018, the now 34-year-old wore baby-pink trousers and a matching blouse. At the time, she also wore metallic boots and her hair down with a side part.
