The 25 Best Looks From Game of Thrones Season 5

6. Cersei’s Funeral Look
Cersei wasn’t even this striking when mourning for her oldest son last year. The death of Joffrey might have appalled and terrified her, but it’s the death of her father—the true power of the family, and the man who both held her back and protected her from herself—that undoes her completely. It’s not until Tywin dies that we see the wholesale swap to black, and the determination to remind everyone around her just how much she’s lost in the last year. There’s a reason this is the first outfit we see her in this season, and the one the show bookends with her Walk of Shame in the finale. She is at her most regal here, from the crown of braids to the square-heeled boots. How far she will fall from this to nothing.
