Malia Baker returns as Chloe Charming, daughter of Cinderella and Prince Charming, in Descendants: Wicked Wonderland, and her wardrobe continues to be one of the more interesting style stories in the franchise. Where Red brings punk-rebel energy, Chloe’s costuming has always leaned into “perfectionist royal” – polished, put-together, and dripping with family-crest branding.
But this new chapter pushes her look somewhere darker and more Wonderland-influenced, and that shift is worth digging into.
The Classic Chloe Look
Chloe’s foundational style, established in Descendants: The Rise of Red, centers on a three-piece outfit built around a jacket with an attached shirt, pants, and gloves, with every piece carrying the Charming Crest and shiny gold accents throughout. It’s a costume built to communicate lineage before anything else – you look at Chloe and immediately understand she comes from Auradon royalty, not the Isle of the Lost.
The jacket itself gets extra attention in its construction: sublimated art gives it a quilted look, paired with printed rhinestone details for a bit of sparkle, and a screen-printed Charming crest across the back ties the whole design together. Retail costume descriptions have described the overall vibe as blending royal elegance with a bold, rule-breaking attitude – a nice summary of Chloe’s character arc, since she’s technically royalty but constantly pushing against the constraints that come with it.
Her pants continue that theme with a flared cut and sublimated art mirroring the jacket’s design, finished off with gold accents at the waistband. The fingerless gloves, decorated with the same Charming crest, round out the look and add a slightly rugged edge to what would otherwise be a fully polished royal outfit – the kind of detail that says “princess” and “rule-breaker” at the same time.
Color Story: Blue and Gold
Chloe’s signature palette has consistently been blue and gold, and that continues into her newer looks. One deluxe costume version describes a blue and gold jacket with an attached printed shirt, a printed design across the back, matching flared-leg pants, and golden glovettes finished with a printed back design. Blue has long been her representative color in the franchise, deliberately positioned as the visual opposite of Red’s, well, red – a color-coding choice that mirrors their dynamic as co-protagonists with very different personalities.
The Wonderland Twist
Here’s where things get genuinely interesting for Wicked Wonderland specifically. Merchandise tied to the new film shows Chloe getting a much darker, edgier makeover than fans have seen before. One fashion doll based on her Wonderland arc describes her in a darker-than-usual black and blue outfit, accessorized with earrings, a bracelet, a belt, fingerless gloves, knee-high boots, and even a dagger. Her usual curly blue hair reportedly gets straightened out and given sparkly strands, and she’s styled in a removable ombré top paired with a black skirt carrying a distinctly Wonderland-inspired twist.
That’s a meaningful departure from her clean, crest-heavy Auradon aesthetic. Trading soft curls for sleek straight hair, and swapping gold-accented royal wear for black-and-blue edge, suggests her arc in this film pushes her further outside her comfort zone than the first movie did – which tracks, given the plot deals with a new villain, Maddox Hatter, and the consequences of the girls’ earlier time-travel adventure catching up with them.
Fan-Made and Cosplay Interpretations
Beyond official merchandise, fan and cosplay communities have already started building their own Chloe-inspired pieces ahead of the film’s release. Listings for a Chloe Charming blue dress in a t-shirt-dress style have appeared alongside matching jacket pieces, giving fans a way to build coordinated outfits inspired by her signature color story even before full costume details from the film are widely available. It’s a good sign of how invested the fanbase already is in her look, even pre-release.
Why Chloe’s Wardrobe Works So Well
What makes Chloe’s costuming effective is the tension it holds. She’s dressed like someone raised to be perfect – crests, gold trim, structured tailoring but every version of her outfit includes just enough rebellion (fingerless gloves, bold color blocking, and now full Wonderland darkness) to remind you she’s not entirely satisfied playing the role she was born into. That tension is basically her whole character, and the costume design has consistently found ways to show it without needing a single line of dialogue.
Final Thoughts
Chloe Charming’s outfits across the Descendants franchise tell a clear visual story: start with polished royal perfectionism, then slowly crack it open. Wicked Wonderland seems to push that crack wider than ever, giving her a genuinely darker, Wonderland-soaked aesthetic that signals just how far her arc has traveled since The Rise of Red. For a franchise built on villain kids finding their own identities, Chloe’s evolution from crest-covered royal to something moodier and more Wonderland-touched might be one of the most compelling style transformations yet.
