OUR TOP PICKS
Best White Lotus themed fashion
Women’s Crossbody Bag with Bamboo Handle, $41 at Amazon Australia
This handbag is a close match to the Gucci bamboo handle bag Victoria Ratliff carries on her family’s boat trip – but it’s just $41 instead of $7,450. The classic design features three interior compartments and a detachable strap, so you can wear it as a shoulder bag or carry it by the bamboo handle. A decorative silk ribbon ties into the resort’s signature colour palette, adding to the luxe look.
Despite the price, shoppers love it, calling it “well made,” “a great little bag,” and “cute and trendy.”
Fun fact: Parker Posey, who plays Victoria, took the Gucci bamboo handle bag from the White Lotus set and has been seen with it on the red carpet.
• Size: 20cm x 15cm x 7cm
Lily Brown Pom Knit, $62.39 at Amazon
The only bag on the show that won’t set you back thousands is Chelsea’s bright-orange tote, which we’ve confirmed as JW Anderson’s Popcorn Basket Tote. With a cut-out top handle and detachable shoulder strap, it’s a standout piece, but unfortunately it’s sold out in this colour.
If you’re partial to the texture, Amazon has this ‘Pom Knit’ bag for $62.39.
Size: 18cm x 18cm
Large Zebra Print Bucket Bag, $109.95 at Mango
Chloe’s Jacquemus zebra-print tote is pure perfection, but at over $2,000, it’s not exactly within reach. Enter Mango’s $80 zebra-print bucket bag – a stunning alternative with the same asymmetric shape and chunky gold hardware we can’t get enough of.
Size: 16cm x 28cm x 11cm
Poupette St BarthBlue Himba Long Erica Kimono, $566 at Poupette St Barth
Resembling Jaclyn’s stunning blue ensemble in episode four, this Poupette St Barth blue kimono features side slits and pagoda sleeves for effortless poolside elegance.
Designed for both comfort and sophistication, its cinched waist flatters all body types, while the satin-viscose fabric – sourced from renewable wood – adds an eco-friendly touch.
Jacquemus Les Boucles Round Carre Earrings, $317 (down from $396) at FARFETCH
Along with her stunning pink ensemble aboard the boat, Chloe elevated her look with a pair of eye-catching Jacquemus earrings. For your next showstopping outfit, we’ve found a similar – but more unique – pair on sale at FARFETCH. Made in Italy, these gold-toned earrings feature a chic mismatched design, with one round hoop and one square hoop. Finished with the Jacquemus logo engraving, they’re a subtle – yet stylish – way to showcase your designer taste.
Metal: Brass
Reebok ID Train High-Support Bra, $39 (down from $50) at Reebok
In the third episode, The Meaning of Dreams, Jaclyn and Laurie joined a yoga session – and while they couldn’t take their eyes off the instructor, we were fixated on Laurie’s stunning red Reebok activewear.
While her exact ensemble isn’t available, the ID Train High-Support Bra is a perfect alternative. Designed with a high neckline, sweat-wicking fabric, and a keyhole cutout at the back, it offers a ‘next-to-skin’ fit for essential support – and it’s only $39.
To complete the look, we’ve also found a matching pair of Running Vector Leggings, perfect for bringing resort vibes to your next workout.
Size: 2XS to 2XL
Material: Polyester and elastane interlock
Blue Bungalow Francesca Natural Cancer Council Hat, $69.95 at Blue Bungalow
A sun-safe hat is a must for any resort holiday, especially when spending long hours under the sun. Throughout the series, we spotted plenty of luxe hats, but our favourite is the raffia style worn by Laurie in Hide or Seek.
For a similarly effortless yet stylish option, Blue Bungalow offers a great alternative at an affordable price. Made from 100 per cent polyester, it holds its shape whether packed in a suitcase or worn on the go. Plus, it provides UPF 50+ protection and even features a chic chocolate-coloured trim – just like Laurie’s.
Material: Polyester
Sun Child Smile Short Sleeve Button Up, $558 at Sun Child
Inspired by Sun Child founder Elissa Kravetz’s grandfather, the Smile Short Sleeve Button Up is anything but old-fashioned. While the exact pattern worn by Chloe has sold out, this bold alternative is just as striking. Designed with an oversized, unisex fit and finished with pearlescent buttons, it’s available in multiple sizes and packed with personality – perfect for lounging by the resort pool and soaking in the tropical surroundings.
Size: 2-16

Clarks Men’s Tilden Free Slip-On Loafer, from $81.48 at Amazon Australia
- Size: US 7.5-15
- Materials: Leather Upper, Rubber Sole
- Colours: Dark Tan, Black, Schwarz Black, Brown, Dark Brown
Loafers have made a huge comeback in recent years. They’re comfy, made from quality materials and can be paired with pretty much outfit. They can even be worn to a Thai resort, as we’ve seen several characters this season rock a pair.
Our favourite is this Clarks pair that you can quickly slip on, look great and feel comfortable throughout the day.
Tried and Tested by Troy Nankervis, news.com.au checkout Shopping Writer
I’ve always been a big fan of Clarks, when it comes to men’s footwear they’ve been a consistently reliable brand.
The best part of these Clarks Tilden Loafers is the slip-on design. There’s excellent ankle and foot cushioning, and I have been able to comfortably wear these all day.
They’re easy to care for with some basic leather polish and at under $70, these are also an excellent price, and a worthy investment.

WHAT IS THE WHITE LOTUS?
