Dexter's Killer Style

The Dexter Cast has style to kill for...
Behind each character's seemingly nondescript wardrobe lies clues to their personality, traces of their psychoses and glimpses of their deepest, darkest secrets. Think those boy-next-door button downs look completely innocent? Think again...


Dexter's Killer StyleStyle Motive: Boy Next Door or Cold-Blooded Killer?
Dexter’s laid back style is part of his carefully crafted façade of normalcy, and is an attempt to portray himself as a laid back, regular Joe. With his dimpled chin and penchant for collared shirts, Dexter looks like the boy next door. His good looks paired with suits and distressed jeans allow him to charm fellow officers, sweet talk his girlfriend, and lure deserving victims to their fate. But beneath the benign bowling shirts lies his obsession with stalking and killing the guilty.

Dexter in his usual work attire: a casual boy-next-door button down with rolled up sleeves. Why the shifty look, Dex? Worried about covering up your last kill?


Debra's Killer StyleStyle Motive: Tough-as-nails Cop or Insecure Ingenue?
Deb is Dexter’s soft spot, but she senses there’s more to him than meets the eye. Though she’s been through a killer breakup, she never lets her style slide. To mask her insecurities and past failed relationships, Deb makes sure she looks completely pulled together in a business professional way. Her tailored slacks, slim suits and button downs are the work wardrobe staples she uses to build a tough exterior, though she often fails to match her look with her true demeanor. On her off-time, colorful slogan tees and fitted workout gear proclaim she’s ‘Alive and Well’, a testament to the survivor in her.

Rita's Killer StyleStyle Motive: Helpless Romantic or Broken Soul?
Dressed in demure sweaters, dainty dresses and comfy robes, Rita is everything Dexter's looking for in a girl: broken and sexually distant. Though she survived her violent ex, this blonde wears her memories in a golden locket and is struggling to raise her kids solo. Rita’s romantic wardrobe and delicate pieces mirror her fragile, broken character who is trying to put the pieces back together again.

Lt. LaGuerta's Killer StyleStyle Motive: Woman on Top or Bitter Party of One?
Division boss and resident dictator, Maria makes no attempt to hide her sexual interest in Dexter. She maintains her image with linen suit separates and adds spice and sex appeal to her wardrobe with leopard print blouses, silver jewelry and sassy cork pumps. Though she runs a traditionally male work environment, Maria is a force to reckon with - as is her style. Last season she was snubbed for the position she wanted, and is always trying to prove her worth. In doing so, she pushes away people and often ends up alone.

Lila's Killer StyleStyle Motive: Sexy Style Maven or Pyro Without a Cause?
This artist-hipster makes cat-burgling Rita’s apartment look like a catwalk in skinny jeans, a racerback sweater and platform boots. A wild nonconformist, Lila creates everyday fashion masterpieces by pairing hip layered necklaces, skull accessories and an abbreviated denim mini. But underneath her coolly offbeat exterior, Lila's battle with addiction is one that she still struggles with.
