Exploring Hogwarts House Fashion Essentials
Hogwarts house fashion reflects the unique personality of each house. You can express your house pride with specific colors, styles, and accessories that connect with Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, or Hufflepuff.
Gryffindor: Bold and Brave Ensemble
Gryffindor’s colors are scarlet and gold. To embody this house, choose outfits that are bold and daring. A fitted scarlet sweater or a t-shirt with a lion emblem can be great for casual wear.
