Dakota Johnson's Materialist Outfits Are Perfect—5 Looks I Can't Wait to Copy

I can’t remember the last time I’ve been as excited for a film as I have been for Materialists. From the moment it was was announced—Dakota Johnson, Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans in the same frame, directed by Past Lives’ Céline Song—I was all in.Set against a moody, modern New York, the film follows Dakota Johnson as a charismatic matchmaker whose professional polish begins to unravel when her personal life gets complicated. With a more than enviable cast, the film is every bit as layered and beautiful as you’d expect. But beyond its sharp writing and intimate storytelling, Dakota Johnson's Materialists outfits are a masterclass in character-driven fashion.

In true Dakota Johnson style, the wardrobe struck that elusive balance between effortless and endlessly wearable. Johnson’s wardrobe feels like an extension of her inner life—shifting from structured, statement pieces to quiet, off-duty staples as the story unfolds. One early standout is an electric-blue Proenza Schouler dress that announces her arrival in a scene with instant, scene-stealing confidence. Later, a perfectly tailored Aritzia blazer makes multiple appearances, paired with sleek Paris Texas boots that give her a grounded but powerful presence. And then there’s the most stripped-back look: straight-leg blue jeans with a white shirt, a combination that’s as simple as it is assured.

It’s no accident these pieces resonate so strongly. Song’s attention to costuming is as meticulous as her dialogue. Each outfit is a small act of storytelling: the boldness of a colour marking a turning point, the cut of a jacket signalling authority, the softness of denim hinting at vulnerability. In a film already brimming with emotional nuance, the fashion doesn’t just keep up—it sets the pace. By the final scene, you’re left with two truths: Dakota Johnson is as compelling a screen presence as ever, and her Materialists wardrobe might just be one of the best I’ve seen.
