Aubrey Plaza is a ’90s kid through and through. “I’m a ’90s kid and I still gravitate towards a ’90s aesthetic,” the actor tells Vogue. “I would describe my day-to-day style as functional, comfortable, and mood-inspired. Some days I feel like trying more than other days. But a throughline, for sure, a ‘less is more’ approach.”
Plaza is partial to classic pieces. “Most days I want to wear jeans and a button-down shirt. I don’t like to feel locked in. I like classic pieces,” she says, adding, “I love a black blazer, T-shirt, and jeans. Done.”
It’s no wonder, then, that Plaza joined the likes of fellow pared-back fashion plates Laura Harrier and Annabelle Dexter-Jones in the front row at Toteme’s spring 2026 show. Plaza traded her jeans and button-downs for a look straight from the runway: an airy, crinkled cotton white sheath dress with a caped white cotton twill jacket, and a structured black croc-embossed top-handle purse, the new Clip Bag. “I focused on the textural experience with this look,” Plaza says. “I love the feel of all the Toteme pieces. I chose it with my eyes closed.”

With an impressive filmography under her belt, Plaza has encountered some serious wardrobe envy in the costume department. Someone else who probably would’ve liked the Toteme show? Her Megalopolis character. “Wow, Platinum had a pretty stunning closet. Perfectly tailored suits for days,” she says. But if she could steal any past character’s closet? “I would go with Harper from The White Lotus: Local designers, globally conscious, and chic.”
While Harper earned Plaza an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Actress in a Supporting Role, she’s recently turned her attention to theater. “You only get one chance on stage when performing live. It adds a different, exhilarating energy to perform in front of an audience. It’s a different mindset,” she says. “On screen, you can control the performance more and try again most times. But on stage, you’d better be ready to do it when the curtain goes up.”
