Roxy and Jane are polar-opposites in every sense—including when it comes to personal style. All of the movie’s looks, costume designed by Christopher Hargadon, play up their sartorial differences. Jane, for instance, traverses the Big Apple in smart, buttoned-up outfits including a teal skirt suit and a lavender jacket and shorts set. Roxy, meanwhile, is way more edgy and boho: She wears pieces like ripped jeans, graphic tees, velvet coats, and even a saucy little red beret. We get it: They’re twins, but they’re individuals.
As a gemini (it’s Gemini Season right now!), I have to say: I deeply relate to both of the siblings’s clashing wardrobes. Geminis are the masters at indecisiveness, after all: One day I may want to be sleek and chic like Jane, and the next, you may just catch me in a leopard jacket and lace camisole like Roxy. When it comes to Jane and Roxy’s differing aesthetics, the film draws a clear line in the sand—but can’t one be both? There’s beauty in cultivating your own fashion identity, but there’s also beauty in experimenting. You can be both a Jane and a Roxy.
