Every Outfit Rachel Ever Wore On 'Friends', Ranked From Best To Worst: Season 8

I'm going to be real for a second: Season 8 wasn't a strong one for Rachel. Granted, she was pregnant, so clothes, understandably, definitely weren't her first priority, and for the most part, looks pretty cute regardless. But it's generally a bit of a "blah" nothing season overall, as even her best looks are sort of plain. (A LOT of monotone wrap dresses, which she looks hot in, but come on, branch out!) Here are all of Rachel's outfits from Season 8 of Friends, ranked from best to worst...

Season 8, Episode 12

Those sleeves could cover the island of Manhattan.

Season 8, Episode 5

No wait, actually THESE sleeves could cover Manhattan and all the outer boroughs.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 11

It’s Beetlejuice!

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 20

PEDAL PUSHERS. REMEMBER PEDAL PUSHERS?

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 9

This is very “Like A Virgin” meets “peasant-chic”. Notice how neither of these things denote good fashion choices.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 4

This definitely was made out of one of her grandmas old mu-mus, for sure.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 17

This is Rachel’s Cruella De Ville, except that instead of killing dalmatian puppies, she’s got her eye on muppets.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 12

This frilled thing is so hideous you barely even notice the ugly pants.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 2

This t-shirt. That bag. It’s like she watched Sex & the City and decided to go “eclectic” like Carrie.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 14

Boho is so no-no

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 22

Tan polyester skirt and red plastic dog tag. Nothing says 2001 quite like this mess.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 13

This was the day Rachel went to audition for the role of Meghan Draper. She didn’t get the part.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 4

Rachel Greene as The Joker (even more controversial than Jared Leto).

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 8

What was that I was saying about “peasant” style?

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 13

This is possibly the worst shirt I have ever seen.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 13

Again, we forgive because of pregnancy, but these Italian nonna PJs are barely okay even with the discombobulating pregnancy hormones.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 15

This is so ugly, I want to gouge my eyes out so I don’t have to look at it any more.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 20

When your mother is dressed better than you, it’s time to reassess your wardrobe choices.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 7

Mall mom Rachel strikes again.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 11

We forgive Rachel because she’s pregnant and can do whatever makes her comfortable, but this is the schlubiest she’s ever looked.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 16

This wrap dress is not one of Rachel’s good ones, mostly because of that awful pattern.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 17

This outfit is just okay, and then you realize the coat she’s holding in her hand is embroidered with weird looking flowers and lined in hot pink satin, and everything comes crashing down around you.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 21

I don’t know why Rachel has a surgical gown in her collection of personal sleepwear, but she does.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 10

The shirt would be FINE if it didn’t have BELL SLEEVES, God damn it.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 22

This is something that my mom would wear, and my mom is a good 20 years older than Rachel.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 19

I didn’t mind this until I realized it was a giant peace sign and it started to bother me. Not peace (I like peace), but the peace sign on the t-shirt.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 21

Note to the early ’00s: if something could be described as “peasant”, it should never have been worn. Also, “peasant” never would fly now, in this era of the Internet think piece.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 13

Not Rachel’s strongest all black look, but not her worst.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 21

It’s a boring outfit for sure but Rachel is such a cute mommy I don’t even care.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 24

This is a woman who allegedly just had a baby. Her gown is dull but I’m going to let that go because of how fabulous and tan she still looks.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 13

It’s not Rachek’s fault hospital gowns are ugly, but she’s WERKIN regardless.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 9

Rachel has for sure had better nightgowns, but I actually like her hair in rollers. Weird fetish maybe?

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 4

This is a little dowdy on the bottom, but the top half is very chic profesh.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 22

I always loved the purple bra with the red tank when I was a teen, so I’m going to leave this here in homage to 2001.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 11

A bit boring and all black, but Rachel cuts a pretty fine monochrome figure in her casual pregnancy wear.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 2

I feel like a red maxi skirt and denim jacket was every teenagers dream outfit in the early ’00s.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 17

Good “Casual pregnant fashion lady” look.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 11

Somehow Rachel wears pigtails in a cute way, but one that’s more fashionable than infantalizing.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 18

The sexy rich preg lady that dgaf outfit is still good with a coat.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 6

“I’m going as a woman who spent a lot of money on a dress and is wearing it because soon she’ll be too big for it to fit”, or something, said Rachel.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 6

Simple, but cute, and definitely Brooklyn 2015 worthy.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 13

Rachel is one of the few women whose head can pull of a half-up-half down do and still look sexy as hell.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 15

I want this sweater for all my Chinese eating, Netflix watching days to come.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 1

Again, she’s really pulling off that bridesmaid dress.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 14

This isn’t much, but when you consider she’s balancing a can on her baby, it makes it all seem pretty sweet.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 14

Cute ass PJs, Rach.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 21

This is somehow the perfect pregnancy shirt.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 19

I always think about when I get pregnant, and how much I’d love to be one of those super fit, glowing women who looks exactly the same as their pre-pregnant selves except for having a big belly. In reality, I’m going to be a sweaty whale eating blocks of cheese like apples.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 18

This is what I like to call “Sexy, pregnant, rich, and no f*cks to give.”

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 3

THOSE ARMS THO.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 12

Rachel killing it yet again with another baseball top.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 3

Trés chic.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 12

If I went out with Rachel in that dress, I’d fall in love with her too.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 10

After 7 seasons of never once pulling off a leather jacket, SHE DOES IT. Even though Joey’s sister is totally stealing this with her fluffy coat.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 22

If only we could all look this cute while pregnant.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 10

Crushing it with wrap dresses and pumps, as per.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 8

I just really love this coat. Irrationally so.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 8

Those heels could take an eye out. In a good way.

Image: NBC

Season 8, Episode 5

Rachel as we’ve established, is Queen of The Little Black Wrap Dress. Bow before greatness.
