Grace Kelly Rear Window Fashion
Grace Kelly stars as James Stewart’s love interest, the stylish Lisa Carol Fremont in the 1954 Alfred Hitchcock movie Rear Window. While more of her outfits are formal evening gowns (that incidentally look like they’re straight out of a 1950’s Vogue) she does wear one casual outfit in the movie, saving it for the very last scene.
The final scene of the movie shows Grace Kelly wearing her only casual look: a red blouse tucked into a pair of blue jeans, complete with a pair of loafers.
We loved this Grace Kelly inspired outfit so much we show you 3 ways to recreate it with a range of mid-and low price ranges, including a sustainable fashion option.
Rear Window is one of three movies that Grace Kelly collaborated with Alfred Hitchcock on, and perhaps her most stylish.
Being stylish fits right into her role, as she plays the stylish Lisa Fremont, who “never wears the same dress twice,” according to her boyfriend L.B. Jeff “Jeffries” (James Stewart).
When Jeff gets into a photography accident that leaves him temporarily wheel-chair bound in his apartment, he turns to watching the neighbors for his entertainment. When one of neighbors begins acting suspiciously, Jeff and then Lisa begin to suspect him of murdering his wife.
Grace Kelly’s style actually plays a large role developing the characters in the film. Lisa, always wearing evening gowns seems to be on a different wave length than Jeff, who likes to travel the world and be unshaven. Jeff can’t imagine her living his lifestyle and in the first part of the movie they argue over the issue.
Since he’s wheel-chair bound, Jeff has to rely on Lisa to help him figure out the case. Through investigating the murder over the course of the movie, they realize they have more in common with each other than they thought.
Grace Kelly’s final outfit even seems to be a reflection of how she ‘came down’ to Jeff’s level.

Grace Kelly Rear Window Jeans option #1 – Sustainable fashion
For the first option, we found sustainable fashion choices to help create Grace Kelly’s classy casual look.
The red shirt and jeans are from Everlane, a company known for its transparency and sustainability. To complete the outfit, we selected loafers from Rothy’s, which are made from recycled materials and are even washable.
(The adventure book you pretend to read instead of a fashion magazine is optional.)

The red blouse is a sustainable option from Everlane.
Everlane tends to have a boxier, looser fit, something to keep in mind depending on the kind of fit you prefer.

For the second option, we chose some mid-range priced options that are still decent quality.
The jeans and blouse are from Banana Republic, known for their classic, modern fashion.
The loafers are from a small Amazon brand called Mona flying that make surprisingly comfortable, good quality leather shoes.
I have a pair of their oxfords, and it’s as comfortable as my pair of birdies, while being cheaper.
