Capitol fashion is flamboyant, extravagant and completely Over the top. Imagine a glamorous pantomime dame crossed with a Georgian dress and dipped in the bright end of a Dulux colour palette.

In celebration of this, here’s the five-step Guide to Capitol Fashion from Geek Syndicate. Whether you’re going for Capitol Cosplay or just want to try out a new style, you’ll find all everything you need to know about fashions of the Capitol right here.

Capitol Look Citizens of the Capitol dye their skin and hair vivid and whacky colours and many undergo extensive cosmetic surgery, all in the name of style. If you’d like a change to your normal hair, by all means dye it a crazy colour. But unless you’re a diehard fan of Capitol fashion and want to live like that for the rest of your life, we don’t advise the surgery! Capitol fashion is larger than life and very ostentatious. You aim to make a statement with this look. Ruffles, pleats and volume, specifically around the shoulders are essential. The style of hair and make up in for this style are as equally flamboyant and daring as the clothing, but must match and work well with the rest of the look.
