Emmy-nominated “Orange Is the New Black,” which is up for 12 awards at Monday night’s ceremony, is the least likely show from which to seek style inspiration. And yet, fashionistas seem to be taking their cues from Piper Chapman (Taylor Schilling, above left) and her jailbird pals.
Last month, Michigan sheriff William Federspiel banned orange jumpsuits in the Saginaw County Jail after discovering they had become the latest trend at his local mall. “I see a lot of [women] wearing all orange,” the cop told Saginaw News. “And they think it’s cool.”
The sprightly hue is springing up everywhere — from Issa’s luxury iteration to Topshop’s High Street look. Just pair the color with a prison-themed bauble and get ready to break out in style.
