“15 Most Iconic Costumes in HBO's Game of Thrones Franchise, Ranked” — what this page in the network covers. HBO's Game of Thrones set a new standard for television costume design, and its successor House of the Dragon continues that legacy. From Cersei Lannister's power-dressing silhouettes to Daenerys Targaryen's evolution from Dothraki leathers to queenly whites, every outfit told a story. The 15 greatest costumes across the franchise highlight the work of Emmy-winning designer Michele Clapton and her team, who created over 5,000 handmade pieces per season.
Standouts include Sansa Stark's dark coronation gown, Margaery Tyrell's rose-adorned gowns, and the intricate armor of the Kingsguard. These designs did more than look stunning—they signaled character arcs, political alliances, and shifting power dynamics. With House of the Dragon introducing new iconic looks like Rhaenyra Targaryen's dragon-embossed dresses, the franchise proves that costume remains a vital storytelling tool.
