Layers upon layers. Elsa doesn’t show much skin if she can help it. In her mind it’s a way of keeping her magic within herself. Just like how most people dress in layers to keep themselves warm, Elsa does so to keep her personal cold atmosphere within. If she gets emotional or feels scared her powers will extend beyond herself, but most of the time her clothing does a fairly good job of keeping people from noticing how cold she is.
Dresses in a lot of dark and neutral colors, with splashes of purple, blue, and occasional white. It makes her professional as well as keeps her from standing out.
She’s always dressed in formal business wear whenever she’s at her office. Her style the rest of the time is a cross between smart casual and the dark academia aesthetic. Enjoys when she finds vintage or vintage-esque pieces, but won’t buy it if it won’t allow her to still blend into a crowd.
Elsa is a great lover of coats and outer garments in general. They look nice and make her feel safe. Hidden, almost. Coats, especially long ones, are partly her way of hiding her body, acting as a safety net if she’s wearing something that clings to her form more than the rest of her wardrobe.
Never goes anywhere without a pair of gloves. Elsa has more than she can count, but often wears ones that are white or cream colored. She’s had people joke that she even sleeps with them on…. they’re not wrong (she once woke up from a nightmare to her room covered in ice and has been wearing them to bed ever since). The only time she ever really takes them off is if she’s showering, washing her hands, etc.
Her hair is always, always up in a bun. She’ll occasionally let it down when she’s home and when she’s going to sleep, but no one other than Anna has seen it in another style in years.
Usually wears heels (the height varies depending on the event and what else she’s wearing). Will put on a pair of flats or loafers if she’s dressed more casual.
