Nobody Wants This is back for season three on Netflix, and while we came for the chemistry between Kristen Bell as Joanne, and Adam Brody as Noah, we stayed for the fashion.
Joanne’s season three wardrobe is impeccable, stealing the spotlight once again as it did for seasons 1 and 2. Her style is a lesson in effortless, elevated dressing, masterfully mixing luxury labels like Gucci and Victoria Beckham with cult fashion editor favorites including Khaite and Mansur Gavriel and more affordable brands like Sezane and Rixo.
Want to recreate her signature LA cool-girl wardrobe? We’ve got Joanne’s exact outfits and where to buy them from season three of Nobody Wants This, plus some affordable lookalikes. We can’t guarantee they’ll help you land a Noah, but you’ll at least look chic while searching…

Who's the stylist on Nobody Wants This?
If you want to know who's responsible for Joanne's effortless style, it's Negar Ali Kline, the costume designer on the show. In an interview with Forbes, she said: "We wanted to make sure it felt authentic to LA. We made sure to include local LA designers. It helped us to be specific to the place."
She added: "Joanne for us was a really exciting character to design. She's a multifaceted woman. She lives out loud, she’s fearless and very conscious of the way that she presents herself to the world. We knew that we could have a lot of fun with her."
“In costume design,” Kline explained, “we don't usually approach projects thinking about trends in fashion. But in this case, Joanne and Morgan are fashion girls, and that was really exciting for me to think about.”
Interestingly, the team decided on things "that typically wouldn't make sense," because "Joanne pulls them off because she has this inherent sense of who she is and how she wants to present the world."

Where to shop Joanne's Nobody Wants This season 3 outfits
Joanne's style is more minimalist in season three, and her casual looks are a lesson in how to look chic while laidback. Her B Sides Knitted Jacket is bang on trend, bridging the gap between a cardigan and outerwear.
I'm really impressed with this ASOS Knitted Jacket, as it's only $87 / £50 and just as cozy.
This is a classic Joanne outfit - sexy without being too much. She wears the Khaite Fritz Top in Dhalia, and it's a bit of a one of a kind - there's not a lot like it.
One of my fave looks so far! A backyard party calls for plaid, and Joanne's Rosie Assoulin halterneck checked midi dress is actually on sale - great to buy now and stash for summer.
Another stunning piece of knitwear from Kristen Bell's character, as she's seen wearing the baby pink Jil Sander Virgin wool polo sweater. I love the style, I love the color, and it's a key trend for AW26 with its collared neckline.
I found Boden carries a lookalike, for $99 / £60, and it looks so soft.
Naturally, Joanne has a stellar line of accessories, just as stylish as her clothing. I immediately found myself scrabbling to find a version of her (now sold out) Mansur Gabriel Brown Leather Drawstring Bucket Bag.
Animal print coats are an essential winter piece, and how Joanne's styled hers is pure perfection. It looks very much like the Nili Lotan Davelle Coat or Toteme's new coat, but it is in fact the Rixo Milly Coat.
Either way, it's a beauty and Free People and Topshop have gorgeous iterations.
The way she wears it so cool, over a House of 29 grey hoodie and joggers; try Free People's cashmere set for your own cozy vibes.
As for her luggage? It's Beis. In another episode, she uses the Sezane Gabin Tote in chocolate brown suede.
The navy Loewe Scarf Jumper that Joanne wears is a dream - luckily M&S has a navy sweater with scarf for $70.99 / £36. Wear with stonewash jeans a la Joanne.
Joanne is quite low key in series two, but when she's casual she knocks it out of the park. I have been contemplating buying the Khaite studded belt, $640 / £520, and she may have just convinced me. If you're looking for a stellar lookalike, I'm really fond of the Abercrombie studded belt, $32 if you're in the US, and if you're in the UK I'm loving the Hush studded belt, £70.
Costume designer Negar Ali Kline said of this outfit: "I spent a lot of time thinking about that particular costume. In that scene, she's meant to be a fish out of water, we wanted her to pop. [Joanne is] the 'other' in that moment.
"Very intentionally, we muted the background costumes so that she would be the only one really in this bright color so he can not only notice her in the congregation, but also have it be the moment where [Noah’s mother] Bina sees her and Joanne is this lady in red."
This is one of my favourite casual outfits of the series. In the episode where she gets the short-lived ick about Noah, she's wearing blue jeans, Converse platform high-tops, $75 / £64 and a striped Siedres Ole Rugby Polo Sweater.
As you can tell, I'm not doing this in order of appearance, I'm doing it in order of my gold star outfits. I just loved this finale dress - the blue strapless dress she wore to gate crash (well, she had an invite at one point!) Miriam's bat mitzvah.
This is definitely one of my favorite looks from series one - where she makes it home for the dinner with the Spotify bosses and her sister. But then Noah shows and they have their own Friday night Jewish dinner together, also known as Shabbat dinner.
Joanne's outfit is from a brand called Favorite Daughter, and fun fact for you, the brand founder just happens to be Erin Foster, the show's creator. That's right, she created this brand with her sister Sara. Talk about multi-talented!
This is a very chic brand. The set Joanne wears is inspired by menswear and The Favorite Vest, $188 is made from a navy pinstripe, blend suiting fabric that's fully lined. The matching pants - aptly called The Favorite Pant, $188 / £217 - look so stylish, and can be worn with various things from your closet.
One happy shopper wrote: "These pants are perfect. The way they fit at the waist and the drape of the fabric on the legs is so flattering. I am going to buy these in other colors. Perfect staple piece for my wardrobe."
This is a dress that Joanne is excited to wear while on a weekend away with Noah. She opted for the Reformation 'Bridgton' linen dress. Sadly, it's sold out but Reformation has the new 'Everett' dress, $298 / £298 which is brand new online.
Joanne wore a bright red Maje short tweed jacket while on a coffee date with Noah, and this look just worked, even though, on paper, it probably shouldn't.
