Tracey de Santa GTA V Costume Guide

Tracey de Santa has two distinct wardrobes in Grand Theft Auto V, each capturing a different side of her spoiled Rockford Hills lifestyle. Her most frequent casual appearance revolves around poolside summer wear, while her television audition outfit leans into an exaggerated schoolgirl-inspired combination of layers. Recreating either version comes down to matching specific colors, cuts, and casual streetwear pieces rather than complex fabrication.

Because both ensembles rely primarily on contemporary clothing, the difference between a generic summer outfit and an accurate Tracey costume lies in the exact pairings. Her summer look layers cut-off denim directly over a patterned one-piece, grounded by bright turquoise accents and sun protection. Her audition outfit shifts to neutral outerwear balanced against a bold pleated skirt, knee socks, and utilitarian boots.

The Poolside Look: Swimwear and Denim

The foundation of Tracey’s poolside outfit is a bright pink one-piece swimsuit featuring a geometric print and a deep V-neckline. In the game, the pattern breaks up what would otherwise be a solid neon block, so finding a suit with sharp geometric shapes keeps the torso visually accurate. It doubles as the base top under her shorts, meaning you want a comfortable stretch fabric that stays flat against the skin without bunching around the hips.

Over the swimsuit, Tracey wears low-rise blue denim cut-offs. The shorts sit low enough on the hips to let the high-cut sides of the pink swimsuit peek out above the waistband. A medium wash with subtle distressing matches her in-game model best, though the fit around the waist matters more than heavy fraying.

Thread a medium-width brown leather belt through the loops, finished with a rounded brass or antique gold oval buckle. It should sit slightly loose over the denim rather than cinched tight. For footwear, simple turquoise flip-flops mirror the cool blue tones of her sunglasses and keep the outfit appropriately relaxed for a poolside or convention floor setting.

Hat and Eyewear

Tracey rarely lounges outside without her fedora and sunglasses. The hat is an off-white or natural paper-straw fedora with a defined pinch in the crown and a contrasting black ribbon band. The brim should be short to medium—wide beach sunhats will throw off the silhouette entirely.

Her sunglasses stand out immediately thanks to their vivid turquoise frames paired with dark, solid black lenses. Opt for a bold wayfarer or square acetate frame rather than slim wire rims. The stark contrast between the bright frame and dark lenses is one of the most recognizable details of her face model.

The Fame or Shame Audition Outfit

When Tracey heads to her television audition, she switches to a structured multi-layered outfit. The base layer is a simple white fitted shirt with a square neckline, which frames the collarbones cleanly. Keep the fabric lightweight so it layers neatly under the outer knitwear without adding bulk.

Over the white top, layer a chocolate or medium-brown open-front cardigan. It should be lightweight, unbuttoned, and long enough to hang past the waistline. The contrast between the dark, earthy brown cardigan and the crisp white neckline gives the upper half its characteristic depth.

The lower half centers on a pleated tennis skirt in a red and dark green colorway. The pleats should be crisp and evenly spaced, sitting comfortably at the natural waist. While her in-game skirt features a plaid or blocked palette combining deep green and red tones, the pleated silhouette is what ties the audition look directly to her character design.

Footwear and Finishing Details

Pair the skirt with solid black knee-high socks pulled up smoothly to just below the knee cap. Cotton or opaque knit socks stay up better during extended wear than sheer nylons. Finish the lower half with brown lace-up ankle boots, ideally in a warm chestnut or distressed brown leather with dark soles.

For hair, Tracey wears long blonde hair with warm honey or golden tones. For the poolside version, wear it loose and slightly tousled with natural beach waves beneath the straw fedora. If you are putting together the audition outfit, gather the hair into two low pigtails or loose parted sections that frame the face, keeping the styling clean and deliberate.
