Dress Like... Wanda and Pietro Maximoff!

Posted by Meghan at 6:13 AM
So, I haven't spoken about it on this blog yet, but I have been recently obsessed with Avengers: Age of Ultron! I loved the first Avengers movie, and all of the movies leading up to both that one and the new one, so it was only natural that I saw it the night before it came out!
Well, we're introduced to two new characters in the midst of all the action--twins Pietro and Wanda Maximoff.


Their aliases are Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, and I honestly fell in love with them as soon as they stepped onto the screen! So, I felt it natural to set up a quick 'Dress Like' post to get looks similar to what they wear in the movie!

First, we'll address Wanda's wardrobe:

1. Red.

Now, this seems vague, I know, but she has multiple outfits in the movie, and each one (aside from the one above, of course) has a huge splash of red. These are a few options to get her chic and bohemian-type look.




2. Little Black Dress.

What says fighting evil robots like a LBD? Wanda certainly loves her black dresses, and though they're almost always plain black, there are a few that don a bit of a pattern! Here are some to get you thinking in the right direction.




3. Black Boots.

Wanda sure loves her black boots! Often she pairs them with tall socks, so a pair like these simple ones would be essential. The boots though are absolutely essential to her look, so it's important to get the right style! Here are some options:



4. Jewelry.

Wanda has very delicate rings and necklaces, but they're beautiful and simply add to her outfits. Here are some to get you started in the right direction.







So, there's Wanda's look! For a complete look at her outfit, I've compiled a little collage for you visual people:


And, on to Pietro, or better known as Quicksilver!

So, Pietro Maximoff is an interesting character. He's got super speed, so naturally, all of his clothing has to be able to handle all of the friction--making workout clothing the best option. So, I'll do his a bit differently.

1. A Cool Track Jacket.

Pietro only wears one jacket throughout the movie (technically 2, but I really liked his first one), and it's actually a jacket that's sold!



Now, on that Amazon link, the jackets are only available in men's size medium & double-XL, so this might not be the best option. But, there are other cool track jackets out there, like the few listed below:




Forever 21 seems to be the best option for a cool track jacket--but, I found some nice ones at Target as well! I'm sure as it gets a little cooler outside, these jackets will become more abundant!

2. Track Pants.

To make this look a little sleeker & girlier, I chose to find more running legging-type options! I think they still capture Quicksilver's, well, quickness!

3. Long-sleeve Top.

Pietro doesn't always wear a jacket--when he doesn't, he's often wearing a long-sleeve shirt that's tight-fitting and sleek. So, here are some lovely options!:




4. Running Shoes.

Now, of course, you'll need some nice new kicks for running! Adidas, the brand that created Pietro's on-screen kicks, created a line of running shoes that correspond with the Avengers--and they sell the exact ones Pietro wears! But, they come with a pretty price tag--$200.

But, if you don't want to drop $200 on a pair of running shoes, here are some alternatives:

Now, that's a pretty basic set of clothing--so, I thought I'd give you all some Quicksilver/Pietro-inspired pieces to use everyday, regardless if you're working out or not!

I hope you liked this 'Dress Like...' post, and I'll see you next time!
