Audrey Ramirez wears one of the cleanest, most recognizable workwear outfits in animation. Her look relies on functional turn-of-the-century mechanic gear: dark denim dungarees, a fitted white undershirt, a wool-style newsboy cap, and rugged leather utility pieces. Because each garment is an actual piece of everyday clothing rather than fantasy armor or custom tailoring, pulling the pieces together is mostly an exercise in getting the proportions and silhouette right.
The silhouette leans relaxed and utilitarian. Audrey spends her days crawling around steam boilers and submarine engines, so nothing about her clothes should appear stiff, pressed, or delicate. Finding items with a slightly broken-in texture gives the costume the lived-in realism that defines her character on screen.
The Core Workwear: Overalls and Undershirt
The denim bib overalls are the visual anchor of the costume. Aim for classic medium-to-dark blue denim with straight or slightly relaxed legs rather than modern skinny-cut dungarees. Traditional metal hardware, a front chest pocket, and adjustable shoulder straps give you the industrial baseline you need. Sizing up slightly helps achieve the slightly baggy, unrestrictive drape Audrey has when moving around an engine room. If you want to match her casual work style, letting one shoulder strap drop or simply keeping the fit loose through the torso feels immediately authentic to how she works.
Underneath the overalls, Audrey wears a simple white camisole with thin shoulder straps. A basic ribbed or cotton tank works well here. Because the bib of the overalls covers most of the chest, only the neckline, thin straps, and sides are visible. Prioritize a breathable stretch cotton or modal fabric so staying cool under the heavy denim isn’t an issue during long wear.
Headwear and Hairstyle
Her navy blue newsboy cap sits forward on the crown, giving her that classic 1910s industrial look. An eight-panel baker boy or newsboy style in navy blue wool-blend or structured cotton provides the fullness needed to sit properly over thick hair. The brim should be curved slightly downward rather than flattened.
Audrey’s hair is dark brown to black, styled in tight curls with two prominent strands framing either side of her face beneath the cap. If you are styling a wig or your natural hair, pull the bulk into a low, gathered bun or pin it close to the nape of the neck so the cap sits snugly without popping off. Pull out a few defined corkscrew curls on each temple to flank the cheeks, which frames the face and balances the volume of the cap.
Boots and Work Gloves
For footwear, heavy brown work boots ground the lower half of the outfit. Plain round-toe or cap-toe leather boots in deep brown or chocolate work best. Cuff the hems of the denim overalls once or twice above the ankle so the laces and collar of the boots remain visible.
Her gloves are light gray leather work gloves with short wrist cuffs. Sturdy goatskin or cowhide driver-style gloves in an ash or light slate tone match her animated design closely. If new gloves arrive looking bright and pristine, rubbing a tiny bit of graphite powder or diluted brown acrylic wash into the seams dulls the factory sheen and gives them the appearance of actual shop tools.
Grease Smudges and Red Lips
The makeup combines a bold cosmetic choice with engine grime. Audrey wears a defined, warm-toned classic red lipstick with a matte or satin finish. The crisp red lip stands out sharply against the rest of her utilitarian outfit.
To finish the mechanic look, add subtle grease marks across one cheekbone, the bridge of the nose, or along the forearms. Matte black and brown eye shadow stippled with a coarse sponge creates convincing soot and grease without smearing like real oil would. If you want a handheld prop, tucking a vintage adjustable wrench or a cotton shop rag into the side loop of the overalls completes the appearance naturally.
