How To Dress Based On Your Hogwarts House

Harry Potter has made a comeback with the announcement of its new video game coming next year. With this popularity is the rise of people sharing and sorting themselves into their Hogwarts house. I, myself, am a proud Slytherin so sometimes I like to pick outfits based on my Hogwarts house. I think it’s really fun to do this from time to time so these are my tips on how to wear your house colors with pride and dress based on what Hogwarts house you’re in.

Casual

Gryffindor

Brave, daring, and courageous are just a few ways to describe a Gryffindor. Just as they are bold in life they have to be just as bold in their dressing. The Gryffindor house colors are red and gold so their looks revolve around that. When I imagine how a Gryffindor would dress casually I picture them in a bright red jumpsuit because it’s easy to wear but bold enough that they stand out. Pair it with a gold belt to scream Gryffindor pride.

Slytherin

Since Slytherin is my Hogwarts house I know we are described as cunning, ambitious, and determined. Slytherins house colors are green and silver. When I picture a Slytherin dressing casually I imagine them in a basic black dress with a dark green overcoat. Some black heeled boots would be the perfect accessory to complete the look.

Ravenclaw

Ravenclaws are intelligent, wise, and creative with their house colors being blue and brown. Ravenclaws, I imagine, would typically dress the most unique out of the Hogwarts houses. Ravenclaws are the most creative of the bunch and they show that through their fashion. Wearing a flowy printed blue top over some black pants with some strappy heels is really going to tell people what house you represent.

Loyal, kind, and honest are the best ways to describe a Hufflepuff. They are reliable and are always your best friend.

A yellow floral dress with some heels is going to match a Hufflepuff perfectly.

Just simply wear a black sports bra and red leggings are perfect for any Gryffindor.
