Molly Rogers, who previously collaborated with Patricia Field on the original film, returns as the chief costume designer. Rogers emphasized her commitment to creating looks that transcend fleeting trends, stating, "I didn't think the costumes in this movie should just be a part of a temporary fad." This dedication to timeless style is evident in the character designs.

Rogers drew inspiration from figures like the late Karl Lagerfeld, known for his signature, perfectly tailored uniform style. The sequel also builds upon the fashion legacy of the first film, with the crop jacket and pencil skirt from the original serving as a roadmap for the new installment's fashion direction.
