After the runaway success of series 1 of Celebrity Traitors (how Alan pulled it off we'll actually never know – seriously, we'll never understand it), we are sat and ready for series 2.
But while we're here for the incredible cast and rumours of next-level gameplay (apparently, we're getting a lot more traitors in the turret this series), we're staying for Claudia Winkleman and her fabulous outfits.
Yes, we're back to obsessing over kilts, boots, fingerless gloves and, err, leggings again. And we're hoping for more ruffled shirts, velvet, funnel necks and statement knits than ever before. To keep you up to date, we'll be refreshing this roundup before and after every episode (and sometimes during – we get overexcited) with all Claudia's latest Celeb Traitors series 2 looks, both the exact pieces and the high-street alternatives. So pop back after you've paid your nightly visit to the roundtable (no spoilers, we promise).
We've also spoken to Claudia's stylist Sinead McKeefry below about what to expect from this series ('surprises' apparently) and shared the staple wardrobe pieces we expect to see again.
Grab your cape and swear you're a faithful, she's back.
The final: We're at the end game
It's the final feature-length episode and we won't spoil the result but it. is. tense. For the last mission Claudia is in an outfit we saw in one of the promo shots four weeks ago. It's all the greatest Traitors fashion hits: The Brora Alpaca Colour Block Tank, a (sold out) Warp + Weft white shirt with ruffle collar, the Le Kilt Forest Green kilt and those Hambro & Miller fingerless gloves, plus a fabulous khaki coat, which has now been confirmed to be Tabitha Simmons x Next (sadly, now sold out, as it was a great price at £148). The gang's all here. Shop the look below.
For the roundtable, we had a Brunello Cucinelli shirt and a sleek Stella McCartney black blazer. Which, funnily enough, is exactly what we're wearing to the office Christmas party.

Episode 9: The Fonz, biker jackets and the screams of Faithful past
'From the diaphragm Claudia!'.
This was a game-changing Traitors episode, but that aside, we got some classic Claudia looks as she channelled Fonzie from Happy Days (why not?) in a black Saint Laurent biker jacket. She's styled it over a white Darcy Clothing shirt (Darcy Clothing creates replicas of men's clothing from 16th century to the 1950s). That's worn under a button-up black tank top from Connolly, a YSL black tie and leggings (yes the Spanx are back)– this is serious Claudia as we get to the business end of the show. We've found an affordable take on the Saint Laurent biker jacket from Next below.
For the penultimate – and very dramatic – roundtable, she's gone big in a Stella McCartney tinsel chiffon shirt and trousers (sadly sold out). Claudia called it ‘the greatest outfit we've ever borrowed’ on her Instagram, adding that she loves tinsel. Same.
We've sourced some great alternatives on the high street if you want to recreate the look in the office next week for casual Tuesdays.

Episode 8: Givenchy bombers, Traitor scarecrows and little black dresses
The final is fast approaching – it's on 30 Oct, just in time for Halloween – and it's all got a bit Wicker Man. Also we're worried that James Blunt's actual head (not just his pumpkin one) will explode.
Tonight, in the field of screams, Claudia is giving us Givenchy and she looks a bit like a 1950s RAF pilot, so there's that. She wore a slightly deconstructed tartan Vivienne Westwood shirt at breakfast, but for the mission, she added the Givenchy Shearling Bomber Jacket with her Nili Lotan cotton twill pants. She's also slipped on some Hambro & Miller cable wrist warmers.
But don't worry if you can't quite stretch to Givenchy – we've found some very similar pieces on the high street below.
For the roundtable, she's back to one of her faves, with a shirt dress from The Kooples, which is still available to shop if you're very, very quick.
Pass us that dagger.

Episode 7: Tweed three-piece suits and blindfolds
That was a stressful mission. Softly does it. But first, tweed!
After the Celine jumper last week, Claudia has really hit her fashion stride this series. This three-piece herringbone tweed chocolate brown suit is probably our favourite Celeb Traitors outfit yet. Claude has embraced the tie for autumn (as has Nicole Kidman on the red carpet) and we are adding this ASOS burnt orange tie to our basket as we speak, as well as snapping up some matching socks from Siskin (where Claudia got hers) or Uniqlo. The combination of chocolate and burnt orange is just so rich and gorgeous.
The brown herringbone tweed suit has been made bespoke for Claudia by Barrington Ayre, a tailor based in the Cotswolds (the same people behind James Blunt's tweed suits). You can get your own made to order for £1,595, but we've found a great option on the high street from Mango.
For the mission, we're indoors this week with our first trip to the Traitors' lair (we like what they've done with the place), so Claudia's simply added a jumbo blanket scarf (from Le Kilt) and Brora fingerless gloves. Shop the full tailored look below.
As for the evening outfit, it's what we'd wear if we had the roundtable at 6 and the Christmas party at 8. The sparkly roll-neck knit was Dries Van Noten, while she wore a midi kilt from Le Kilt (again!) underneath, with her black Miu Miu boots.

While Claudia's look is more dramatic, we've shown how to take inspiration from it with a sparkly roll-neck and kilt below.
Right, like James Blunt, we've got another party to go to.

Episode six: Celine polos and Bella Freud suiting
Coming on the back of episode five's iconic Chewbacca look with the faux-fur trapper hat that social media speculated was made from Claudia's wig collection, we've got two very strong outfits tonight, including possibly our favourite of the series so far, with that striped polo jumper and khaki fatigues look.
She starts the day in Celine's gorgeous striped polo sweater in alpaca and wool. We can only find it on one site in a size XS now (Harry Styles wore the jumper version earlier this year, too), but we've found some good high-street alternatives below – we suggest layering a white shirt or red fine-knit polo underneath to create more of a classic Traitors look.
The lace-up brown biker boots are Miu Miu but you can find similar styles for less, while the khaki cargo pant is very popular for autumn, so you can also snap up similar versions now. For the mission, Claudia added another Barbour jacket (it initially looked like the Marron she wore for episode 2 but it's actually the Barbour Spey Waxed Jacket), a pair of cosy HERD wrist warmers and a leather chair and side table, apparently.
For evening, we've got a gorgeous dark grey Bella Freud Check Saint James Jacket with red piping and check trousers with pale pink Minnelli shirt and tie, all from the punky-meets-tailoring specialist. We show how to recreate the look for less below – Reiss is the best place to go for a similar 70s silhouette, while H&M has some satin ties in every colour for just £9.99. A tie is a great investment to freshen up your tailoring for autumn 2026 – just ask Joanne McNally (but don't ask her who's a Traitor; she doesn't have a clue).

Episode five: Clockwork Orange, death parades and chaos murders
We're now in mourning after the most stressful game of hide and seek ever and Claudia seems to be taking inspiration from Clockwork Orange for her latest mission look.
For breakfast, she arrived in a black buckled cotton shirt from Comme Des Garcons, which she wore with black Nili Lotan trousers tucked into sturdy, flat (Bottega Veneta) boots. She looked very stern, and these missions are getting very scary.
The shirt is a tricky piece to replicate on the high street, but we've scoured the internet to locate a black Zara Collection jacket with buckle detail below.
More importantly, where do we get one of those faux-fur trapper hats...(don't worry, we've found one at M&S – shop below). That full-length faux fur, meanwhile, is last year's M&S x 16 Arlington, but we've found a current version from the brand below. And, yes, this show was filmed in June...

Much more achievable is the roundtable look.
The knitted argyle tank top is by Johnsons of Elgin, which often features on Traitors, and there are plenty of very similar styles on the high street. She's wearing it over a high-neck, cream puff-sleeve lace blouse, which McKeefry has now revealed is by Scottish designer Judy R Clark (a second appearance for the brand on this series following the knitted top from last week), but M&S has a great version if you want to recreate the look.
Then slip on some slim-cut black trousers – tonight's were from ME + EM – and tassel-detail loafers (Claude's are Church's) and you've got yourself a classic roundtable outfit.

Episode four: Shearling jackets, glam knits and jump scares
Ring, ring, ring...
There's suddenly a chill in the air – in more ways than one after that edgy breakfast and a return of the cabin! – but Claudia's got you covered. For this mission, she's all wrapped up in a 16 Arlington Nofre Shearling Jacket, which is still in stock, but an eye-watering £2,223. Don't worry, though, we've found some great high-street options below, including an M&S furry cardi that's a slightly more understated take on the look.
Pair it with a statement pleated skirt – Claudia's is by Chopova Lowena, a folklore-meets-punk London-based streetwear brand that feels right up her street – and a black, puff sleeve knit (hers is the Ebony Puff Sleeve Knitted Jumper by Scottish designer, Judy R Clark).
All very pricey but we've found some good alternatives for less below. As for the roundtable, this look is more wearable and shows how to style the kilt for evening. You'll find our take on the pink shirt (which looks to be Comme Des Garcons and is sadly sold out) and black kilt (Claude's is Le Kilt's Black Oban Midi Kilt) below.
Now we're just off for a game of hide and seek.

Episode three: Tartan, Sugababes and showers
We'd forgotten about Maya's Honey Monster coat for a minute.
Anyway, Claudia is in Alexander McQueen tartan tonight – her Alex Kick Mini Skirt is yours for a cool £649. But, if you don't have the spare cash down the back of the sofa or don't want to go quite so mini, we've sourced some options inspired by the look on the high street below, including Boden's pleated tartan midi kilt. Wear with a chunky black knit (high-street klaxon, Claudia's is from Uniqlo), tights and some patent brogues. Claudia's are from Grenson, but we've found a great pair from Jones Bootmaker for less.
For the mission, Claude paired her tartan skirt with a black, funnel-neck bomber jacket (this knitted wool bomber from Paul Smith we think) and we've found a very similar looking black bomber from COS.

She's wearing the Lin Lambswool Jacquard Knitted Vest by knitwear designer Genevieve Sweeney, while the brocade skirt is from heritage British brand Connolly. It's giving high priestess. We've found similar styles for less at COS and Karen Millen.
Now, we're off to update our spreadsheet.

Episode two: dilemmas and pearls
The second episode and they've made their graves...
But what about Claudia's Friday night look? Well, it's similar to ours, but with a little less jersey and elasticated waistbands. For the mission (and a cameo at breakfast), Claude went for a chic combination of Barbour, Simone Rocha and her favourite Bottega Veneta Lug boots. Why not?
The rich plum knitted vest is from Genevieve Sweeney (who also made the jacquard knit vest from the promo shot) and it's layered over a James Purdey & Sons white shirt. Shop the exact Barbour jacket from the mission below, and we've also found a similar look on the high street – it's not quite the same style but it's from a range curated by none other than Sinead McKeefry for FatFace.
And if you want that Simone Rocha pearl belt hanging from her trousers, it's a cool £195, but it does mean you'll be able to transform any pair of high-street black trousers into something Traitors-worthy.

As for the evening look and Claudia's black satin dress, this is how we plan to answer the door to the Deliveroo man for her Friday night takeaway.
McKeefry has revealed that the dress is by Shushu/Tong, a Shanghai-based label known for its feminine-with-a-twist style (think bows, ruffles and lace). But it's layered over one of her fashion faithfuls from the high street: a fine knit polo neck from COS. We love the high/low of it all.
Episode one: RIP VIPs
It's good to be back.
As distracted as we were by Joanne McNally's bright pink cow print two-piece and Claudia emerging from a coffin in the church – what a start – we tried to focus on what our leader and queen was wearing. Which appeared to be a giant, very elaborate ruff with a blazer, black leather fingerless gloves and her favourite leggings. The ruffle shirt turned out to be Comme Des Garcons, while the jacket is from show favourite, The Kooples.
Slightly more wearable was her first mission ('it's a bird!') look, which saw her in a chocolate brown SKYE By Brora wool bomber jacket and a strong tartan trouser and skirt combo (which stylist McKeefry has confirmed is Vivienne Westwood, from Vestiaire). Here's where to go on the high street to replicate her outfit.

The promo look
The first official shot we have of Claudia (outside of the very extra Comme Des Garcons ruffle blouse glimpsed in the teaser clip) is this classic Traitors look. She's wearing a kilt from show favourite Le Kilt and what look to be her favourite boots from The Row.
The fingerless gloves are likely to be from Hambro & Miller, which knits all its products to order in the UK, and the tank top is Boden – its Alpaca Colour Block Tank is currently available in all sizes.
Here's our take on the look from the high street.

The Celebrity Traitors Series 2 moodboard
Speaking to Sinead last year, she told me that she and Claudia always have a moodboard they work to each series, filled with all their references, from Ronnie Corbett to The Cure. For series 1 of Celebrity Traitors, things got a little more punk, slightly more Siouxsie Sioux, and she hints that we'll see a similar departure from the civilian series this time, too.
“We've definitely moved to more of a punk silhouette, inspired by designers like Simone Rocha and Comme des Garçons – the Scottish Highlands are the perfect backdrop for it,” she tells me.
So, expect some more show-stopping designer pieces – we've already seen some glimpses of Simone Rocha on McKeefry's Instagram Stories over the summer, not that we're stalking her (we are, we actually are), as well as Dries Van Noten.
But, there will still be heritage brands mixed in – think Connolly, Johnston's of Elgin, Hambro & Miller – plus her high street favourites: COS for those fine knits, made for layering; The Kooples, Reiss and Jigsaw for velvets and tailoring; ME+ EM for shirts and blouses; and Brora for knits and great coats. We recommend grabbing a tie to go with your suit and tank top for this series, too.
And of course, there are those surprises she told us about. No word on what they might be this series, but we're expecting (hoping for) another yeti moment. As she says, "If they're not making memes about it, I'm not doing my job."
The Traitors staples
Want to start building your Traitors basics now? These are the core pieces that appear every series.
The blazer
The roundtable blazers are usually from Saint Laurent, The Kooples, Reiss or Jigsaw. Either velvet or a smoking jacket style, these styles tend to come out a little closer to party season, but you may find similar styles in the sale right now.
The Kooples Black lace suit jacket
The leggings
The classic Spanx leggings are a series regular.
The fingerless gloves
While she sometimes mixes it up and wears Hambro & Miller fingerless gloves, Brora is Claude's go-to on the high street.
The boots
Claudia's boot line-up usually includes some classic Hunter wellies, her favourite Dr Martens 2976 Hi Chelsea Boots and those gorgeous Bottega Veneta Lug ankle boots.
