As hilarious as some of the characters on Amazon Prime's The Wilds [1] are, there's really not much humour to their situation [2]. Being stuck on a deserted island and having no idea how you got there is far from ideal, to say the least. Fashion probably wouldn't be top of mind for anyone — at first. But leave it to Fatin Jadmani to provide us with a whole wardrobe's worth of glamorous outfit inspo [3]. She manages to salvage everything in her suitcase and divvies up her designer pieces so all the girls can keep warm while they're stranded.
As the episodes progress, we start to notice how Rachel, Toni [4], Dot, Martha, Nora, Leah, and Shelby all do really gravitate toward certain wardrobe staples, just like Fatin. They wear some of these clothes and accessories on the plane as they embark on what they think will be a weekend retreat, giving us a glimpse of the type of look they go for back home. Once they're on the island, they tend to reach for their own clothing most often, and their must haves really become clear. Even though their style comes through in a less flashy way than Fatin's, we can tell how these young women dress just by seeing them rotate through three to five items alone.
So, that brings us to the question: what would you want to be wearing if you were stranded on an island? A delightful thought, we know, but perhaps this shopping game will connect you to your favourite character on the show.
Fatin Jadmani
Fatin, otherwise known as the chic jacket provider [6] for all of the girls on the island, is probably remembered most fondly for this pink shaggy coat.
Fatin's Must Have
Free People Teddy Swing Jacket [7] ($90, originally $128)
Rachel Reid
Rachel rarely switches up her look, but she's always wearing simple sports leggings that, without fail, allow her to perform whenever necessary. It's the athlete in her.
Rachel's Must Have
Puma x Stef Fit High Waist Shape Tights in Black [8] ($55)
Toni Shalifoe
Toni's vintage basketball muscle tee doesn't just help her look tough but also reminds her of home — and a sport she really, really excels at.
Toni's Must Have
Zara University Shoulder Pad Shirt [9] ($10, originally $26)
Dot Campbell
Dot becomes known for her cargo pants, and — not that she's a sucker for fashion or first to put on any of Fatin's glamorous jackets — but she wears them damn well.
Dot's Must Have
Agolde Mari High-Waisted Utility Pant [10] ($228)
Martha Blackburn
If there's one thing Martha loves from Fatin's suitcase, it's her cute little tees with slogans on them. She manages to mix them in with her bohemian staples while she's on the island.
Martha's Must Have
H&M Printed T-Shirt [11] ($6)
Nora Reid
Nora is always wearing her swingy overalls, sometimes switching things up by layering on a zip-up or Fatin's brocade bomber. Her groutfit style almost helps her camouflage, and that could be intentional since she's hiding a secret. We see her work a more ModCloth, retro-like aesthetic when she's back home at school.
Nora's Must Have
Endless Summer Always Fun Jumpsuit [12] ($88)
Leah Rilke
Whether she's back at home or on the deserted island, Leah's denim bermuda shorts are an easy go-to. They almost provide some necessary structure in her life (seeing as they aren't sweats) while also acting as a reminder that she's still just a young woman.
Leah's Must Have
Warp + Weft Marta Midi Short [13] ($38, originally $64)
Shelby Goodkind
Shelby mostly walks around the island in her nylon colorblock joggers, a denim jacket, white cutoffs, and Teva-style sandals. It's safe to say her movable slacks are the most functional of her must haves.
Shelby's Must Have
Martine Rose Exclusive Pink Twist Track Pants [14] ($144, originally $480)
