One Piece: Nami's Best Outfits, Ranked
Nami has been a part of One Piece for a long time and each arc of the anime has given her a fancy new outfit.
Fortunately, he kept this aspect of his personality when he decided to sail with the Straw Hat Pirates. As a result, Sanji has displayed a vast collection of stylish outfits that once again prove how talented of a character designer Eiichiro Oda is. But, out of everything that Sanji has worn throughout One Piece, the following outfits are his absolute best.
8 Fashion Show Outfit
One Of His Most Distinct Suits
- Worn In: Episode of Luffy: Adventure on Hand Island
Sanji is such an elegant character that he has even worn fashionable outfits in non-canon material, like in the Episode of Luffy TV special. At the very beginning of the episode, the Straw Hat Pirates host a mock fashion show, where he gets the chance to display a really solid new suit.
Suits are Sanji’s main choice of clothing, so it’s always refreshing to see him wear one with different patterns and colors. On this occasion, he can be seen wearing a purple suit with small skull symbols and a black-and-white checkered shirt underneath. This makes him look great, not only during the fashion show but during the entire TV special.
7 Film: Z 3rd Outfit
Referencing His Old Concept And Looking Good While Doing So
- Worn In: One Piece Film: Z
In this movie’s climactic third act, the Straw Hat Pirates put on a bunch of red clothes for their final battle against Z and the Neo Marines. Sanji’s outfit in particular looks amazing. The red pants and white shirt complement each other perfectly, and the puffy black cape helps him look intimidating.
But the guns are the best aspect of Sanji’s third outfit in Film: Z, because they work as a reference to one of his scrapped concepts. Before writing One Piece, Eichiro Oda originally conceived Sanji as a suave gunslinger. So, this outfit makes him look like a dangerous cowboy while also functioning as a clever nod to an unused idea.
6 Stealth Black Raid Suit
A Comic Book Costume With A Lot Of Personal History
- Worn In: Wano Country Arc
Sanji was forced to wear the Germa 66 raid suit at several points during the Wano Country Arc. This is an amazing appearance for him, as the cape, boots, glasses and everything else make him look like a threatening super villain while also giving him the ability to turn himself invisible. It’s both fashionable and useful.
But Sanji actually despises his Germa 66 heritage, to the point that he rejects the Stealth Black pseudonym in favor of Soba Mask, a name that fits his heroic nature way better. Nevertheless, Sanji ended up destroying his raid suit because he didn’t want to keep using his father’s technology in front of Queen. So, even though he looked amazing while wearing it, this final action was completely in character for him.
5 Wedding Outfit
A Wedding Attire Fitting For Such A Romantic Gentleman
- Worn In: Whole Cake Island Arc
There are two prominent elements about Sanji’s character: He is elegant, and he’s a hopeless romantic. So, when it was finally time for his wedding to Charlotte Pudding during the Whole Cake Island Arc, he dressed for the occasion, even if he knew that the wedding was actually a trap.
The all-white tuxedo looked incredible on him, and even though he needed to take off different parts of this outfit throughout the rest of the arc, he still managed to look quite fashionable while performing actions like fighting or cooking. If someday Sanji eventually marries a someone for real, he will most likely repeat this solid look.
4 Original Outfit / Post-Timeskip Outfit
A Classic Look That Didn’t Need To Be Changed
- Worn In: From Baratie Arc to Arabasta Arc (Original) / Return to Sabaody Arc and Fish-Man Island Arc (Post-Timeskip)
Sanji may have worn many different suits over the course of the series, but not many of them can beat his original one. The dark blue suit with the striped light blue shirt and black tie is just a classic look, and it’s an elegant reminder that he was involved in the culinary arts as both a waiter and a chef.
Furthermore, he may be the Straw Hat Pirate who physically changed the least after the 2 year timeskip, because his new look was almost identical to his original one. Sanji now wears a slightly lighter suit and a yellow shirt, but it still looks perfect on him because the colors complement each other very well. With this new outfit, he was ready for his adventure in the New World.
3 Raid On Onigashima Outfit
His Traditional Style Does Look Better When It’s Slightly Changed
- Worn In: Wano Country Arc
While Sanji’s classic suit is iconic, and it doesn’t need changing, a small alteration can make a big difference. This is perfectly exemplified by the suit he used during the Raid on Onigashima at the end of the Wano Country Arc. Appearance-wise, it looks almost identical to his regular suit, but the new color is what makes it stand out a lot.
One Piece: Every Species In the Beasts Pirates
This animal themed pirate crew has a number of different species involved.
Sanji doesn’t wear burgundy colored clothes very often, but this suit looks absolutely amazing on him, especially because of the addition of the black shirt and white tie that enhance his overall appearance. This is also the outfit that Sanji was wearing when he unlocked his new power-up, Ifrit Jambe, for the first time, so the blue flames contrast very well with the color of his suit.
2 Water 7 Outfit
He Should Use Sleeveless Vests More Often
- Worn In: Water 7 Arc
Sanji traditionally wears suit jackets over his shirts, but in the Water 7 Arc, he mostly wore a black vest with nothing over it, and it ended up becoming one of his most elegant looks yet. This makes it extremely weird that he never repeated it.
But it’s not just about the fashionable black vest; it's also about the orange shirt with pinstripes that he wore underneath. This is overall a solid look that makes Sanji look as elegant and intimidating as ever. A lot of aspects of his character are designed around tropes from spy movies and mafia movies, so it makes a lot of sense that this outfit makes him look like a respected mafia boss.
1 Royal Outfit
An Incredible Look For One Of Sanji’s Biggest Character Moments
- Worn In: Whole Cake Island Arc
After many years, longtime One Piece fans discovered that Sanji’s last name is Vinsmoke and that he’s actually a member of the Germa 66 Kingdom’s royal family. So, when he arrived in Totto Land in order to get married to Charlote Pudding, he wore an absolutely stunning royal outfit that instantly became a new fan-favorite.
The loose white shirt with the black pants is already a solid and elegant combination for him, but the addition of the red cape takes it to a whole new level. With this attire, Sanji legitimately looks like royalty, and he also looks like a superhero, which may have been 100% intentional due to Germa 66’s design inspirations. Lastly, Sanji was wearing this when he attacked Monkey D. Luffy in one of the series’ most emotional moments, which helped it become even more memorable in the eyes of the fans.
