The Wiggles' Outfits through the Years

Sign in to edit

This is a gallery of The Wiggles' outfits through the years.

1991-1992[]

The Wiggles first look involved bright, loud and garish shirts with plain or black coloured pants.

  • Greg wears a predominantly blue and purple shirt with some pink, green, grey and dark purple with white shapes (though one photo shows him in a long-sleeved brown tartan shirt, and another shows him in a black and white tartan shirt). According to Greg, this shirt looked like someone vomited on the shirt.
  • Anthony wears bright dull brown with white stars (though one photo shows him with a dark violet long-sleeved polo shirt, another shows him in a checkered striped shirt, and another shows him in a grey suit jacket with a light blue shirt and red tie with white polka-dots)
  • Murray wears red with white dots (though one photo shows him in a black t-shirt while another photo shows him in a beige shirt with black and white patterns)
  • Phillip wears dark red with large white polka-dots. "The shirts? I can tell you that mine was purchased from a store at Bondi Junction, near to the Institute of Early Childhood when the campus was at Waverley. I was with Anthony. Anthony actually chose my shirt. There was also a black shirt, same design, white spots. Come to think of, that might have appealed more to Spot the Dalmatian!"
  • Jeff wears olive green with yellow, red, black and other colours (purple, lavender, white, peach, light grey, orange, greyish brown and dark brown) (though the Brian Bury photo shows him in an orange, cream and black striped pattern shirt and the busking with John Field photos show him in a plain light brown shirt)

The pants are regular black pants, though photos have shown different combinations of jeans and lighter-coloured pants and the belt buckles are ordinary belt buckles.

1992-1997[]

The Wiggles now have coloured shirts. In different videos, they wear a mixture of skivvies, long-sleeved t-shirts, and short-sleeved t-shirts, and Anthony sometimes wears a polo shirt (most notably in their first video). In concerts, they wear short-sleeved t-shirts, as experts say The Wiggles would become hot and sweaty in their long sleeves.

  • Greg (the "Yellow Wiggle") wears a goldenrod or yellow.
  • Murray (the "Red Wiggle") wears crimson, light red-orange or red.
  • Jeff (the "Purple Wiggle") wears dark purple (which looks blackish), dark grape (a dark hue of the colour of purple grapes) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shades_of_violet#Grape) or bright purple.
  • Anthony (the "Green/Blue Wiggle") wears light blue, silver-blue, green, turquoise, white, or bright blue. (1992-1995) before settling on light and bright blue in around 1995 or 1996.

The pants are regular black pants, and the belt buckles are ordinary, while Jeff has a Felix the Cat belt buckle. However, for a short time in 1992, Greg and Jeff wore white pants. This look is seen in the Uncle Noah's Ark 1992 music video and The Wiggles' 1992 appearance on Play School. A few occasional photos show different combinations of jeans and other pants. From Late 1995 to early 1996, The Wiggles sometimes wore t-shirts, shorts, coloured shoes and baseball caps.

1997-2001 (long sleeve) 1997-2006 (short sleeve)[]

The skivvies get a significant upgrade. They're more brightly coloured and have a trademark logo on them. They were custom-made by Bonds, with boots by Blundstone in 1997. Other than BONDS, this skivvy era could be customized by other Australian clothing brands such as THE ICONIC, Target, City Beach, H&M, ASOS, or UNIQLO.

  • Greg wears yellow, and it is a size XL. Sam wears the short-sleeved version of the shirt (as an understudy (later official Wiggle) for Greg).
  • Anthony wears bright blue, and it was a size XL. (In close-up shots of the 1998 version of Toot Toot Chugga Chugga Big Red Car, he wears dark blue due to a keying error). Tony Henry wears the short-sleeved version of the shirt (as the drummer on The Wiggles on Recovery). Morgan Crowley also wears the short-sleeved version of the shirt (as an understudy for Anthony).
  • Murray wears red, and it was a size L.
  • Jeff wears bright purple, a size L, and Katty wears the short-sleeved version of the shirt in Episodio 20.

The pants are still regular black, but the belt buckles are now shaped like the Wiggles Logo.

These skivvies from this era are also on display at the National Museum of Australia in Canberra.

By late 2001, they stopped using their long-sleeved tops as experts warned the group that the skivvies from the late 1990s could get tiny holes due to their belts affecting their cotton tees, although they continued to use the short-sleeved tops until Greg's first retirement.

2001-2007[]

These skivvies now have a different colour shade to them. However, three of them are the same colour shades as the previous ones, the trousers have coloured pockets and thin coloured trimmings going down the leg side, and now they have turtlenecks; this way, The Wiggles stay warm in case they perform or film content in cold countries.

  • Jeff now wears dark grape (lavender in CGI)
  • Greg/Sam wears yellow (in the chroma-keying shots of Brown Girl in the Ring, it looks orange)
  • Anthony wears bright blue (light blue in CGI)
  • Murray wears red

For The Dorothy the Dinosaur Show, various Wiggly dancers (with the most frequent being Brett & Sam) would wear green skivvy and the other version with yellow lines around the arms and neck to represent the character. The trousers have green pockets and trimmings down their legs, and the version with yellow on the side of the leg trimming and both on the top of the pockets.

This design had variations made for the Little Wiggles, the Latin American Wiggles (aka Los Wiggles) and the second lineup of the Taiwanese Wiggles (aka the Mandarin Wiggles).

After Greg's first retirement, the short-sleeved T-shirts disappear.

2007-2012 (full time) 2014-present (part time)[]

Now the skivvies have a darker colour shade on the side of the shirts, going around their neck, arms and shoulders:

  • Anthony now wears bright blue with dark blue shading.
  • Sam/Greg wears yellow with goldenrod shading. In specific lighting, the shading looks orange.
  • Murray now wears red with crimson shading.
  • Jeff now wears grape with purple shading. In particular lighting, the shading looks magenta.

Guest stars that have appeared with them have also worn these skivvy types, but these skivvies lack the darker shading:

  • Jimmy and Daryl wear black
  • Guillermo and Kylie wear pink
  • Al wears orange
  • Karl wears green

The pants pockets no longer have coloured trimmings. Still, the lines going down the pants are now thicker, looking similar to the ones that The Wiggly Dancers wore in Wiggly Party: Live in Concert and Wiggly Safari and like Captain Feathersword's black trousers that he wears from 1997-present. Some pants had more wrinkles. Sam wears it until Surfer Jeff in 2012, when Greg returns and wears the skivvy. In 2011 or 2012, the Wiggles gained shorts with lines on them (possibly to replace the short-sleeved shirts from 1992-2006).

These skivvies are still used occasionally now and then, like for the OG Wiggles Reunion Shows or to match archived footage of Anthony from 2011.

According to Jeff in a 2021 interview, these era skivvies were made out of the same material as football jerseys so that they remove sweat quickly; this was prompted by a kid saying, "Anthony, Anthony, Murray's melting" at a concert.

Like the 2002-2007 design, Sam and Greg both wear the same yellow shirt and pants of this design.

2012-present[]

These new skivvies are like the last ones but with arrows on their chests. The trousers now have two stripes down the pants. This is the longest skivvy and trouser era as of 2024, although the V's and stripes on the yellow skivvy became lighter coloured and shinier in Carols in the Domain from 2017 onward. Rather than wearing trousers, Emma, Evie, Caterina and Lucia wear black skirts with stripes on the side. When the Wiggles got these new skivvies, they had one stripe on the sleeves, then added one more stripe on the sleeve for a total of 2 stripes. The skivvies design is likely based on the West Tigers jerseys.

2021[]

With the announcement of Fruit Salad TV, four brand new skivvies were made for the four new wiggles. All the skivvies, including the current Wiggles skivvies, had their names printed on them; however, the Wiggles ditched the names on the skivvies after people knew who they were.

  • John, Evie, Kelly and Tsehay's skivvies are brighter than the current ones.
  • Evie wears a black skirt with blue stripes on the side. Kelly wears pants with yellow stripes on both sides, just like what Greg & Sam used to wear. Tsehay wears pants with yellow stripes on both sides.
  • John's skivvy is a light purple.
  • As of 2022, Caterina now wears a red skivvy and a black skirt with red stripes on both sides.
  • After Kelly left, Evie became the second yellow wiggle, and to represent her Aboriginal heritage, her skirt now has yellow and red stripes on both sides. Also, Lucia took over as the blue wiggle, and now she wears a black skirt with blue stripes.

Similar to the 1997-2001 outfit, the logo is embroidered and small and doesn't have the Wiggles Belt Buckle, and it had coloured striped sides of the trousers but not the pockets.

Sparkles[]

In 2020, The Wiggles rocked sparkles on the skivvies and only used them in Carols in the Domain 2020. Anthony returned to the sparkly skivvy, and only he wore it and sparkled on the trousers.
