The best outfits Jessica Fletcher wore in season one of Murder, She Wrote

  NBC/Universal

When Angela Lansbury took over the wardrobe for Jessica Fletcher, it was honestly the best decision. The actress made the author look fashionable while solving murder mysteries that no one else could. Who said you can't look and do your job (it wasn't even her job to solve these murders) exceptionally well?

Let's take a look at Fletcher's best outfits, starting with season one. Let's get into it!

1

A hoodie and a crewneck/sweater?!

Episode: “Deadly Lady”

Few people wear hoodies and crewnecks/sweaters at the same time, and those who do can't pull it off like this. Jessica Fletcher knew how to turn basic clothing items into an elevated casual look.

Stripes and a white skirt

Episode: “Hooray for Homicide”

Everyone loves a cute striped button-up, and Fletcher paired this blue-and-white one with a knee-length white skirt. The brown over-the-shoulder purse is a nice touch, too.

Horseback riding but make it stylish

Episode: "It's A Dog's Life"

Horseback riding is all about the experience, but Jessica stays camera-ready.

Fletcher and bikeriding

Episode: “Hit, Run, Homicide”

While many women TV characters were always in heels, Fletcher knew how to switch it up. Look at the sneakers on her feet!

THE black dress

Episode: “Footnote to Murder”

You can never go wrong with a black dress, pearls and red lipstick. Instant classic look!
