Sarah Sherman, also known by her stage name Sarah Squirm, might well be the zaniest, loudest, grossest and dare I say funniest comedian working right now.
Since 2021, the 32-year-old Jewish stand-up has brought her quirky, body horror-filled comedic sensibility to “Saturday Night Live.” She’s played a young woman covered in singing meatballs, a tennis player whose head is blown off, an office worker who got a googly eyes transplant, a drunk raccoon and who can forget Jewish Elvis?
But my personal favorite role of Sarah’s is when she can be herself. It’s only then that Sarah Squirm, her stage name, can come out to play with unfiltered rumination on bushy body hair, thick vaginal discharge and lots of diarrhea.
Heightening all of these disgusting yet relatable jokes is her wardrobe. Sarah’s sense of style is best described as clown couture: well-tailored garments colliding with noisy patterns and effervescent colors that appear straight out of “Pee Wee’s Playhouse,” a John Waters’ movie or Fran Fine’s closet. Think, as Sarah has herself joked, Chucky goes to Sarah Lawrence. At the same time, however, she isn’t afraid to dress down or go kitschy with branded trucker hats and giant t-shirts.
So, how does one dress like Sarah Sherman? My advice is to lean-in to everything weird, bold and wacky. Some common themes in her wardrobe are shades of rainbow, giant collars, checkered patterns, patchwork fabric polka dots, stripes, smiley faces and eyeballs. Accessorize with giant ties, suspenders, a mullet, a bottle of Pepto and your late grandmother’s prosthetic eyeball (seriously). Curate a vintage collection, as Sarah herself has, or go for brands like Fashion Brand Company, Lazy Oaf, Boyko, Unilogical Poem or Fluevog (especially when the Sarah Squirm superclogs are back in stock).

These suspenders made Sarah's list of things she cannot live without on The Strategist! "I always have them with me, because I like to wear big clown pants," she wrote. "I’ve never gotten anything tailored. Instead of buying clothes that fit, I just buy big clown clothes that don’t fit, so the suspenders come in handy."

Fashion Brand Company seems to be a go-to brand for Sarah, as she wears a lot of their pieces. She's even modeled for them! Sarah owns a FBC chessboard jacket in purple, but this scrap patchwork jacket will look just as good.

For the SNL50 Homecoming Concert, Sarah donned a Susan Alexandra necklace. It appeared to be custom-made with the bejeweled little creatures typically on Susan Alexandra keychains. So this glitter critter is a must.

According to a bit Sarah did on Weekend Update, her underwear consists of a diaper, a sports bra and a t-shirt she got in New Orleans that says "New Orleans." While this tee option isn't quite a novelty shirt, the letters do look like innards, which I think Sarah would appreciate.

Another item Sarah cannot live without, this is "her" smell. She says that it smells like balsamic vinegar and wet dirt and piss, and somehow still smells amazing.

Sarah famously wears her grandma's (of blessed memory) prosthetic eyeball as a necklace. While that's obviously a family heirloom, jeweler and artisan Rhys Kelly makes very cool eyeball jewelry to fill that gap in your wardrobe.
