Netflix Trigger Warning: Steal Jessica Alba’s Kick-Ass Style and Attitude as Parker
Jessica Alba sure is no stranger to playing the kick-ass female heroine. Looking every bit as strong, powerful and formidable in director Mouly Surya’s Trigger Warning, as she did all those years ago in tv’s Dark Angel. You know the short lived sci-fi series that also introduced a gaggle of teenage girls to Jensen Ackles, the soon to be one and only Dean Winchester. But it turns out it takes more than just a can-do attitude and killer moves to avenge your father. Starting with a wardrobe full of the perfect Jessica Alba Trigger Warning outfits for kicking ass and taking names.
Parker’s Rachel Vos Sage Green Cardigan in Netflix’s Trigger Warning
As a highly skilled and dangerous CIA Special Forces Officer, it would seem unlikely that anyone would try to deceive Parker over the circumstances surrounding her fathers death. But nobody ever said criminals had to be intelligent.
Wrapped in her supple ribbed knit Rachel Vos Cardigan, with its figure hugging silhouette, low v-front collared neckline and button front closure, this Jessica Alba Trigger Warning outfit in a soft sage green is reserved and unassuming. Perfectly reflecting her demure and grief stricken frame of mind that has her turning to the one person that she should be able to trust, when she realizes she has more questions than answers.
Jessica Alba’s Never Ending Collection of Plaid Check Shirts
It doesn’t take long before Parker has to put her well honed combatant skills to use to protect her hometown and its people. And what could be a better representation of that tough fighting spirit than the humble down-to-earth plaid shirt.
Practical and comfortable, Parker joins a long list of tv and film stars who favor the checked patterned shirts. Including previously mentioned demon-slayer Dean Winchester, and even Twilight protagonist Bella Swan.
However, whether worn in blue or black, open over a simple tank top or oversized and buttoned up, all it takes to replicate Parker’s look is some classic jeans, leather boots and a few of her killer moves.
Vintage Ortega Chimayo Blue Aztec Vest worn by Parker in Trigger Warning
With their roots deep in old Spanish Colonial New Mexico, it is no wonder then that costume designer Samantha Hawkins chose an original Ortega’s vest as part of this Jessica Alba Trigger Warning outfit. The square front vest made of a bright blue wool, simply paired here with a basic tank top and jeans, has been woven with the traditional Chimayo weaving technique. Featuring a decorative design in shades of black, white and gray, that is not only seen on both sides of the front but the back too, and perfectly helps to reflect the New Mexico residents proud heritage.
Parkers Statement Drop Earrings Worn Through-out Trigger Warning
Although Parker’s looks are better known for their easy comfort and ability to kick some ass, while looking every inch the heroine, that doesn’t mean the CIA officer doesn’t know how to add a touch of glamor to her wardrobe. Mostly done through her accessories like her drop earrings, including the effortlessly simple wooden geometric hoops that she wears to her fathers funeral.
A Delicate Contrast: Parkers Floral Anthropologie Button Down Shirt
Living up to its billing as an action thriller, surprisingly things really start to crank up a notch or two after Parker puts on her very striking, yet feminine flower embroidered button down shirt. One of her more delicate and girly Jessica Alba Trigger Warning outfits, the simple white button front shirt with it’s all over floral embroidery in multiple colors seems like an odd choice for the battle field that is about to be Creation, New Mexico.
However it does add a nice contrast to the scenes of her torture, when Parker accuses her assailant of punching like a little bitch!
Jessica Alba’s Vintage Tan Brown Leather Jacket worn as Parker in Trigger Warning
Yet even with a Trigger Warning wardrobe full of classic looks there is one statement piece that really stands out, and that is Parker’s tan brown leather jacket. Most likely a vintage find with the large front patch pockets, fitted silhouette and button front closures made in the supple leather. Even echoing Parker’s Ortega Chimayo vest with an intricate back embroidery, that somehow, along with the rest of the jacket manages to withstand the battle royale that Creation, New Mexico’s domestic terrorism threw at it.
With non-stop action and full-on fight scenes, Trigger Warning sees Jessica Alba making a triumphant return to the role that just seems to be made for her, the ass kicking heroine. But even without the machete wielding, burning buildings and a deadly fight in a volatile mine, the Jessica Alba Trigger Warning outfits alone are worthy of our CIA Special Forces Operative. While effortlessly giving off the killer wardrobe vibes, that would make any of us feel like we could take on the world, and win.
