The 25 Best Looks From Game of Thrones Season 5
By Ani Bundel
9. Young Cersei’s Outfit
How long has Cersei known exactly who she is? Since she was a young teen, apparently. Of course, part of the reason for dressing Young Cersei in a mini-me outfit of Cersei’s gown from the early seasons of the show was for the audience’s benefit. How do you know which kid is Cersei in the flashback? She’s the one wearing a pinkish red gown with the giant bell sleeves and a miniature version of the Cersei armor belt. And yet, somehow taking on that same look gave the kid who played her a sense of the character, and we got to see that that Cersei had been the same appallingly unthinking and spoiled person all her life. Crowns and shrouds may be what her children wear, but red and regal has always been Cersei’s way—until, of course, all the color and happiness was drained from her life, just as Tyrion promised it would be.
