Yesterday we dug into the style profile of the Bottom lesbian movie protagonists P.J and Josie, and today we turn our attention to another lesbian character inspiring crushes across the nation and possibly the world: Hazel, played by queer actor Ruby Cruz. Bottoms designer Eunice Jera Lee told Vogue that Hazel’s style is the one she identifies with most closely, describing it as “more androgynous and fashion-forward but always true to herself, wearing oversized men’s pieces from Vetements, All Saints, and Wales Bonner.” Hazel’s vibe is effortlessly cool, comfortable but put-together.
Hazel’s Oversized Bowling Shirts
Bowling shirts are always cool.
Hazel’s Baggy Polo Shirts
Hazel’s a fan of Johnny collars, ribs, knits and tipped polos.
Big Cardigan Energy
There’s nothing like a chunky cardigan to radiate Hazel’s androgynous, “got this at the Kiwanis sale” energy.
Hazel Is Wearing Vests, Vests Are Back Now
Hazel will wear a sleeveless vest over whatever she wants to!
Drapey Oversized Button-Down
I wish I could find the exact shirt Hazel’s wearing in the film — it’s oversized, it’s drapey, the red and blue stripes are so subtle you can barely tell they’ve got color at all until you get really close up. But alas I could not, here are three other options:
Hazel also loves to layer — start your outfit with a simple white tank top or a loose-fitting t-shirt, like the olive-hued tee Hazel wears under a cardigan and later under an argyle sweater vest. Pants are simple: Dickie’s-style shorts, track pants, cargo pants or whatever strokes your lesbian boat.
Vests ARE back! This makes me very happy. Final a retro look I actually enjoyed the first time around.
well i for one am very happy for you!!
It’s Hazel Callahan Fall, sapphics’ most horny and powerful season, and I’m so excited for all the thrifted bowling shirts and Doc Martens waiting in our collective futures. (I am also thrilled to announce publicly that after three Bottoms viewings (many more to come), I am now a proud first time vest owner! Yes, Ruby Cruz is my insufferable new personality)
thank you smmm since i watched bottoms ive been fighting for my life trying to find a way to dress like hazel the lesbian icon of my dreams. that one red and white bomber sweater thing she wears is just mwah i’ve been looking everywhere for something like it. so excited to become the butch of all time 🫶🫶
