“Stranger Things” season four delivers a new wave of supernatural mayhem, questionable haircuts, and, of course, fashion inspiration. With the latest episodes partially set in the fictional town of Lenora Hills, CA, there’s a noticeable shift in the cast’s wardrobe to channel the laidback California aesthetic of the ’80s. Think: patterned button downs, graphic tees, and pastel colorways galore. As it turns out, not every outfit worn on screen was culled from a vintage store; some were made specifically for the show in partnership with Quiksilver, and fans can shop the exact pieces online right now.
The Netflix show’s costume designer, Amy Parris, worked with Quiksilver over the span of three years to create a collection of clothes inspired by ’80s surf culture, digging into the brand’s archives to revive designs from the time period. These re-created styles pop up on main characters and extras throughout season four, and include Nancy Wheeler’s (Natalia Dyer) denim jacket, Max Mayfield’s (Sadie Sink) blue and yellow zip-up, and much of Argyle’s (Eduardo Franco) wardrobe. Parris and Quiksilver also produced additional apparel and accessories, so fans can rep Surfer Boy Pizza, the Hellfire Club, Lenora Hills, and the Upside Down.
“Quiksilver was an integral part of California fashion in the 1980s,” Parris told Gear Patrol. “[‘Stranger Things‘] is so true to the period that it only made sense to infuse Quiksilver archive pieces through the show this season. Together, Quiksilver and I worked meticulously to make sure the fit, fabric, and feel of each garment was both true to the period and akin to the characters’ closets.”
The “Stranger Things” x Quiksilver collaboration includes T-shirts, shorts, jackets, sunglasses, hats, bags, and even swimsuits, with prices ranging from $25 to $160. Read ahead to shop several outfits worn by characters in season four, along with our favorite picks from the nostalgic collection.
