The Serpent is one of the latest thrillers to hit Netflix and we are HOOKED. This 8-episode crime series is based on a true story about notorious the Charles Sobhraj, a serial killer, thief, and master of disguise. The show takes us back to the 70’s where we follow his trial, including a look into his relationship with girlfriend and accomplice Marie-Andrée Leclerc, played by Jenna Coleman.

While the series isn’t necessarily about the fashion of that time, we couldn’t help but take style notes from Jenna Coleman’s Marie-Andrée Leclerc. The Serpent’s wardrobe stylist, Rachel Walsh, perfectly encapsulated the bohemian and tailored vintage feel of that decade through sleek styling and some of the most iconic 70’s silhouettes that we all know and love today. Ready to steal Marie-Andrée’s style?
The Power Suit
Bring the glamour just like Marie-Andrée with a colored power suit! Opting for rich, jewel tones is super luxe and we’re seeing these styles everywhere in 2021. Marie-Andrée balances this bold look with a classic floral blouse tucked in, paired with the iconic supersized 70’s sunglasses.
Eclectic Colors
Psychedelic patterns are a true nod to 70’s inspired fashion. This simple look is elevated by the bright colors and patterns that look like a match made in heaven. All you need is a (sleeveless) blouse and a great pair of trousers. You can style together or separately for a super chic look.
Patterned Head Scarves
If there’s something to take away from this style steal, it’s the quintessential 70’s cool girl accessory: the patterned head scarf. This chic accessory easily transports you back to the 70’s, and it’s also a staple because of its versatility. You can rock this as a head wrap like Marie-Andrée or tie it around your neck for a cool, retro feel.
