Out of all of the recent TikTok fashion trends that have captured everyone’s attention, we think this one has to be one of the most fun and audacious. The mob wife aesthetic channels the glamorous, chic and powerful looks of the mob wives in popular culture that live rent-free in our minds. But, what is mob wife aesthetic exactly and how do you recreate this devastating look? We’ve got plenty of tips and fit ideas in this blog to perfect the look, so read on below to find out how to pull off mob wife fashion effortlessly.
What is mob wife aesthetic?
Mob wife aesthetic is the latest TikTok fashion trend to hit the For You pages, and it’s one of our faves in recent times. 2023 had plenty of moments for cute fits with the popularity of Barbiecore and coquette looks, but the new year has called for something different. For a tougher look, the mob wife aesthetic goes the other way and ushers in your 2024 bad girl era.
This trend hails back to the divine looks that the women of The Sopranos, Mob Wives and Goodfellas have all left in our minds. For that extravagant “waste management” wealth look that Carmella Soprano and many other on-screen mob wives have made so iconic, the mob wife aesthetic is a trend that is just too classy and fun to miss out on.
This look is all about glitz and glamour, opulence but with extra edge. Understated is not the vibe you’ll be finding here, with big hair, big coats and big boots all making this look especially loud. The mob wife girl is a girl whose outfit displays undeniable grandeur and who you’d certainly think twice about messing with.
Mob wife aesthetic has of course taken TikTok by storm, but it has also made waves with celebs too. Dua Lipa, Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner have all been sighted sporting the look’s huge, luxe faux fur coats and accompanying fearless energy. So, if you’re eager to add some mob wife fashion picks to your wardrobe yourself, keep reading for our best tips on how to complete your look.
How to get the mob wife look
If the mob wife aesthetic has piqued your interest and you’re after some of that bada-bling for yourself, EGO’s got everything you need to put together your own spin on the trend. These are our top picks for the mob wife trend:
- Statement faux fur coats
- Glitzy jewellery
- Leopard print luxe
- Boots to die for
Statement faux fur coats
First on the list for must-have mob wife fashion has to be the iconic centrepiece of the mob wife outfit: the faux fur coat. This statement item is the instantly recognisable, crowning jewel of the whole look. It’s the perfect way to keep cosy in your fit while expressing pure power and fierceness. The mob wives were definitely onto something with this one!
Our ladies’ coats collection has just what you need for the faux fur coat look. Take our Oversized Grey Faux Fur Cropped Jacket, for example. Giving your fit the powerful look it needs with its oversized fit and its wide lapels, this jacket clearly shows you mean business. Comfy never looked so commanding!

Glitzy jewellery
The mob wife look is associated with everything opulent, so of course flashy jewellery is key to this look (just don’t ask where that jewellery might have come from). The bigger, the better when choosing women’s accessories as mob wife fashion jewellery is all about extravagance.
If you’re looking for women’s jewellery that pulls off the mob wife look without the ill-gotten gains, we have just what you need. For your necklace, go with the Pearl Detail Crucifix Necklace in Silver for a classy and unrivalled look. When you’re adding your earrings, it’s got to be the Large Drop Earrings in Gold for us, with their divine and all-out look that you simply can’t ignore. For more swanky accessories, choose some oversized women’s sunglasses and easily give off that signature nonchalant mob wife energy.

Leopard print luxe
Going along with the mob wife theme of in-your-face and unabashedly showy, leopard print and animal print clothing is a consistent fave of this look. Though such audacious patterns aren’t always the easiest to pull off, they fit into a mob wife look effortlessly as the perfect way to display that killer chic. TV mob wife fave Adrianna La Cerva iconically slayed in this look head to toe with a tiger print jumpsuit, though you can instead dip your toe into this look if you aren’t ready to take the plunge just yet.
The perfect way to do this is with a bodycon dress. Leopard print dresses are ideal as they give off the Y2K vibe while looking utterly stunning. If you fancy just adding a splash of leopard print to your outfit instead, our Pointed Toe Court Heels in Leopard Print Faux Suede are just the things you need. With the court heel height giving you that little extra elevation and the slingback design adding that extra flair, they couldn’t be a better choice for your mob wife look.

Boots to die for
No mob wife would be caught sleeping with the fishes without the perfect pair of boots. That’s why it’s essential that the boots you wear are simply divine. Black boots are our top contenders for this look, as the dark hue combined with maximum glamour is what the mob wife aesthetic is all about.
However, you can also go more vibrant with your boots to equally capture the boss babe look. For colourful mob wife boots, our I-Am-The-One Padlock Detail Knee High Long Boots in Gold serve unrivalled glamour with their stunning and shimmering metallic finish. Meanwhile, our Statement Block Heel Knee High Long Boots in Red make for another tempting choice with their magnificent red shade and distinctive heel design that will have all eyes on you.
