My love for Brooklyn Nine-Nine has never been, and will never be a secret. The highlight of my week was going back through episodes to get screencaps for this post. Plus, in case you haven’t noticed yet, I have a thing for larger-than-life characters and their closets. The 99’s Gina Linetti is no exception to this obsession. (She is “the human form of the 100 emoji”, after all.)
But she’s also, for lack of a better phrase, absolutely ridiculous.
And in a show where all other characters are clad in standard business casual or police uniforms, her outfits stand alone and shine brightly.
It’s no surprise that someone who spends so much of her time talking about spirit animals owns so many different tops decorated with them. We see plenty of tops (and even a blanket) adorned with wolves, her spirit animal (and my patronus! Spirit animal sisters!), but she and (her bizarre fascination with the wild) pays her respects to others.
Birds? Gorgeous, majestic, so Gina, and paired so perfectly with a classic “Instagram Baddie” bomber jacket.
Panthers? Fierce, frightening… Gina Linetti in a nutshell. (Also, shout out to our boy T’Challa.)
Seriously, major shout-out to the B99 wardrobe department. Gina’s outfits have made me say everything from, “Hey, I think I saw that shirt in Topshop a few months ago…”
(Note: I was right!)
…to, “damn, that dress is Alexander McQueen!”
Brava, Gina. Your wardrobe is just as inspirational as you’d expect it to be. Winky face.
