Cheerleader-turned-vampire slayer
Screenfits earns a commission on some links below, at no cost to you. We choose the garments first and find where to buy them second — never the other way round.
A crop top, combat-ready boots, and a stake tucked into a bag that still matches the outfit. Here is how to build it.
Buffy's wardrobe has to do double duty — feminine 90s staples like crop tops and mini skirts, paired with boots built for running and fighting. It's cheerleader energy with a fight-ready edge underneath.
Fitted, simple, worn under a jacket or alone.
Flirty but functional — built to move in.
Laced up, built for running and kicking — non-negotiable footwear.
Thin, close to the neck — the signature 90s finishing touch.
Buffy's genius is fighting apocalypses in mall clothes. Leather pants when it's serious, sundresses when it's not, and the crossbow goes with everything. The 90s formula: baby tees, slip skirts, chunky boots that can actually run. Nothing precious — clothes might not survive the episode. Cute but functional isn't a compromise here; it's the whole doctrine.
Mall clothes that can run: ribbed crop tops, A-line minis, chunky combat boots and the velvet choker. Cute but functional is the whole doctrine.
Yes — they're the practical anchor under every 90s piece, and the reason the outfit survives the episode.
Crop top, mini, boots, choker, and a wooden stake from the craft store. In Sunnydale, that's formalwear.
