The Archies have arrived in India and how! Not only is this Netflix film by Zoya Akhtar making waves through its extravagant marketing stunts, campaigns with brands like Starbucks and a star-studded premier, but also has been catching the attention of the fashion police for the cast’s vintage costume affair. 

We couldn’t help but bring you the perfect breakdown of each character’s look and help you channelise the Veronica, Archie, Betty or Jughead inside of you.

Veronica Lodge: 

The dark feminine personified Veronica symbolises power, rebellion and of course, style! With her chic, classy and minimalist aesthetic, her fashion game is always an iconic one. 

In the mood to look like Ms. Lodge in your next class or at a college party? Find a classic black and white or a blue-red chequered dress, sheer black stockings, heels with pearl straps and a matching pair of pearl earrings. Add a headband for a finished look. A blazer is always a good layer, coupled with dark brown or maroon lipstick. 

Archie Andrews: 

Archie is a classic, chocolate and “casanova” singer who attracts attention like a magnet! He is passionate, has a great sense of style and is shown to be the hero he is.

Keep things simple, while trying to channel Archie– start with a solid black or white shirt, and layer with a sweater, but if it’s getting hotter, go directly for a chequered blazer, preferably vintage-looking. A denim jeans or a pair of trousers is your best choice. Curl those messy hair, clean shave and your accessory? Has to be a guitar! Good luck making music, and watching them ladies fall in love. 

Betty Cooper: 

Betty is smart, she is strategic, she also exhibits a soft feminine energy, but one that is extremely powerful. She is the girl-next-door archetype, known for her blonde hair, blue eyes, and an overall wholesome image.

Dressing up like Betty? A vintage floral mini or midi dress, often paired with a belt on the midriff is the perfect way to do it. Plus points if you have bangs and have blonde highlights in them! 

4. Jughead Jones:

Jughead is known for his laid-back and easygoing personality. His carefree attitude is reflected in his love for food, particularly hamburgers, which has become one of his defining traits. Having been known for his famous beanie hat, which is one of his signature accessories, he is in a shirt, a sweater, and blue jeans.

Keep this look laid back, just like Jug, pair a sweater, preferably grey or blue, pair with a trouser or a jean, and rock a beanie for the “writer” lewk! Hope you are heading straight to the cafe because Jug is nothing without his food.
