No logos, no prints, no fuss, and somehow every outfit costs more than your rent. Siobhan “Shiv” Roy, Sarah Snook’s character in HBO’s Succession (2018–2023), dressed like the only adult in a family of chaos. Her wardrobe of perfectly cut suits, silk blouses and expensive-looking knits made “quiet luxury” one of the biggest fashion trends of the decade. Here are 21 of her best looks.
What made Shiv’s style work
Costume designer Michelle Matland dressed Shiv for power. As she moves from political strategist to would-be CEO, her clothes become sharper and darker: black trouser suits, tall turtlenecks and long coats in camel and brown. Nothing is flashy, but everything is beautifully made and fits perfectly. When she relaxes, like at a wedding in Tuscany or on a family holiday, she switches to soft dresses and pale colours, but she still looks like money.
Her signatures:
- Black trouser suits with wide legs
- Silk blouses in brown, blush and cream
- Fitted turtlenecks
- Long camel and brown coats
- No visible logos, ever
- Simple gold jewellery

How to dress like Shiv today
Buy fewer, better things. Start with a black trouser suit that fits perfectly, a few silk blouses in soft neutrals, a fine-knit turtleneck and one long camel coat. Skip the logos and keep jewellery small and gold. Shiv’s look works because nothing is trying too hard, and that is exactly what makes it look expensive.
