Cinema has a profound, undeniable effect on the fashion world. In fact, lately I’m seeing a ton of Wuthering Heights–style pieces everywhere I turn, and I’m fully leaning into the gorgeous vibe. I watched the romantic tragedy on Valentine’s Day with plenty of tissues at my side, and though Jacob Elordi was undeniably distracting throughout, it was Margot Robbie’s stunning costumes that stayed on my mind.
Billowy peasant blouses, cinched drop‑waist dresses, lace‑trimmed layers and voluminous skirts are all part of the ethereal and sultry Wuthering Heights style — and I’m working it into my wardrobe. Instead of going full period drama, I’m investing in affordable spring pieces that channel the Wuthering Heights vibe with details that are floaty, moody and a tad dramatic. If you, too, want to embrace the cinematic fashion trend without going over the top, shop these 15 under‑$50 tops, dresses and skirts below from retailers like Macy’s, Nordstrom, Amazon and Walmart.
