Empire Episode 5 Fashion Sneak Peek: Tiana in Agent Provocateur, Jamal in Saint Laurent and Zara, Cookie in Dior Fall 2014 and Escada, and More!

Empire is truly bringing the fashion this season, with all of the characters wearing the same high-fashion and contemporary brands donned by the world’s most stylish. The pieces chosen are complete reflections of each cast member’s personality and stylist Paolo Nieddu never strays from that: Cookie’s bold colors and animal prints demonstrate her eccentricity and ferocity, Tiana’s sultry ensembles express her rebellious nature and sensuality, pared-down knits and basics on Jussie make sense as he gives so most of his creativity to his art and not his wardrobe. It’s quite fascinating when you think about it!

Let’s see what the Empire cast is wearing tonight!

Tiana loves flaunting her enviable bod in designs with cutouts, sheer insets, exposed midriffs, and midi lengths. Her bold $352 Agent Provocateur Mazzy Swimsuit is not for the faint of heart…

… but will surely get heads turning on the sands of any beach.

Simplicity is always best and Jamal is the perfect demonstration of that. He uplifts a classic, yet affordable Zara blazer and white Saint Laurent button-front shirt with black leather pants and a $605 Saint Laurent Signature Pleated Black and White Micro Dot Printed Silk Crepe Scarf.

Hot!

Cookie always dons a slew of eye-catching looks each episode and she took it back a few seasons in a Fall 2014 flare dress from Dior, Kimberly McDonald earrings, and a Judith Leiber clutch. Her frock was paired with platform ankle-strap pumps and slicked-back hair on the runway.

The Empire matriarch was also pretty in pink in an Escada jacket, timeless white Wolford tank, colorful Kenneth Jay bangles, and a Jimmy Choo bag. I’d love to play in her closet!

Last, but not least was mommy-to-be Rhonda who brought on the romance in a $510 Sandro Rozen Black and White Lace Dress and Topshop heels.

Cute no?
