This post contains spoilers (both fashion and plot) for Season 6, Episode 10 of Game of Thrones. Proceed at your own risk.
If you're like me, you're still SHAKEN TO THE CORE over last night's episode. It was jam-packed with "OHMYGOD" moments, from Arya ruining pot pie for us all...
...to Jon seizing power in the North as the R+L=J theory was confirmed to exactly NO ONE'S surprise...
...to Dany *FINALLY* cutting the shit and sailing with the REAL version of #SquadGoals to Westeros.
But of all the truly iconic moments in last night's 69-minute finale (nice), the one that truly took the cake is fairly obvious: Cersei's couture-as-fuck outfit.
We're used to seeing Cersei in her classic garb of Lannister colors of red and gold. Something like this:
But last night Cersei went for a different look, a sort of Met Gala Balmain–meets–"I'm blowing up half of King's Landing" vibe:
It's the perfect look for nearly every occasion (that is, if you're Cersei Lannister). Need something to look cute in while you barbecue half of King's Landing? 👏SERVE👏THAT👏LOOK👏CERSEI👏:
How about something for when you put the Shame Nun through the ULTIMATE revenge, a wine tasting from hell? 👏SERVE👏THAT👏LOOK👏CERSEI👏:
And finally, how do you look cute when you're the first queen to sit on the Iron Throne? Only a black outfit with shoulder pads for DAYS will do. 👏SERVE👏THAT👏LOOK👏CERSEI👏:
And despite her deranged murderous streak throughout the episode, Cersei's look was giving Game of Thrones fans SO. MUCH. LIFE.
Also, can we talk about Cersei's outfit?!?! I want it to be 'normal' to wear stuff like that every single day.
Like, they really loved it:
Whoever designed Cersei's new outfit deserves all the money.
Someone needs to get this in retailers ASAP:
Hey Cersei, lemme borrow that outfit.
Because that armor-dress hybrid is just SO damn good.
Lord, give me the confidence of Cersei's outfit.
It *almost* makes up for all the atrocities she committed this episode. ALMOST.
Sure, Cersei just committed an unspeakable crime. But that outfit though.... #GOT
Here's one more look to slay your existence (just like she did to everyone in that Sept LOL) and sustain you until next season.
But really, should we have been so surprised that she slayed the runway game? Well done, Cersei. Well DONE.
