There is a new trend in the world of fashion, which like everything is actually an old trend, recycled, perhaps considered “fat” in its first round: the so-called “narco queen” look returns to women’s fashion at the beginning of 2024 , following the trail of series like “Griselda”, on Netflix, played by Sofía Vergara.
What exactly? It is embodied by Kim Kardashian, with her jet black hair tied up in a bun, or Kylie Jenner behind huge sunglasses, two examples of this trend that matches very well with the extravagance of brands such as Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci or Fendi.
“The ‘mob wife’ is bold, tough, adventurous and free,” explains one of the “influencers” who supports this trend, Sarah Jordan (120,000 followers), a 29-year-old Italian-American from New Jersey. . In this style, fur, fake or not, feline prints, black stockings, wide shoulder pads and vertiginous heels predominate. And the jewelry, with a multitude of bracelets on the wrists, or large golden earrings.
“It’s a way to have fun and have a good time, not only for Italian-American girls, but for anyone who wants to join” the club of empowered women, explains Jordan. And also, a way to oppose the more laconic, and boring, “clean look”, which dominated fashion in recent months.
Pompous, colorful and bombastic looks, thus, take fashion by storm. Like the one presented by Sofía Vergara, the actress and presenter of Colombian origin who plays Griselda Blanco, the godmother of cocaine, who unapologetically assumes her attributes, without undermining her power.
“If you only see my tits, then the problem is yours,” explained the actress in a recent interview with the newspaper El País.
Mikayla Nogueira, a TikTok makeup star with 15.3 million followers, recently posted a tutorial on how to get the perfect “mob wife” makeup with the help of kohl, fake eyelashes, and bright red lipstick.
The singer Dua Lipa, the social media star Kendall Jenner and the model Hailey Bieber are other followers of that feminine figure, far from the “trophy woman”, who either goes out at night in a Moschino gala dress or wears clothes sporty with heels to record yourself on Instagram.
The internet search for “mob wife” increased “by 2,122% in the last 90 days, and on TikTok the hashtag #mobwife gained 160.9 million clicks and #mobwifeaesthetic 130.6 million,” explain trend experts Journo Research .
EVERYTHING RETURNS
Like the “cowboy” style that designer Pharrell Williams has returned to the catwalks with Louis Vuitton, the “boss of bosses” look has plenty of inspiration.

“Queen of the South” was also a hit on Netflix just a decade ago, thanks to Kate del Castillo, and 2024 marks the 25th anniversary of “The Sopranos”, with Edie Falco who also played a fearsome role.
On the big screen, the public regularly returns to the classics of mafia cinema: “Casino” by Martin Scorsese or “The Godfather” by Francis Ford Coppola.
Designers delve again and again into these exaggerated wardrobes, but reinterpret them, such as Fendi with a faux fur coat.
Or the French couturier Julien Fournié, who dazzled at the Paris Haute Couture Week with a tribute to the “femme fatale” of the 1940s, but with a modern touch.
