The costumes of most characters in Game of Thrones are covered in the sections which describe costuming for an entire region. A few characters, however, go through such extensive or unique costume changes during the course of the series that they defy simple categorization. They may also have lengthy notes detailing the design and symbolism of their costumes, so it is more convenient to treat them separately:
•Daenerys Targaryen spends much of the series on the eastern continent of Essos, sampling pieces from many different cultures and fusing them together to create her own unique style.
•Brienne of Tarth, unusually for women in Westeros, is a warrior and frequently wears full armor. To accommodate her taller-than-average height and feminine shape, such armor has to be customized and has little relation to most other armor seen Westeros.
•Cersei Lannister, as a woman of the Westerlands and later Queen of the Seven Kingdoms, is a major trendsetter for both the Westerlands and King's Landing. Her styles also change over the course of the series, usually reflecting her mental state and position in the various story lines.
•Margaery Tyrell is similarly the style trendsetter for the Reach, and as Cersei's most influential rival at court, her style is designed to aesthetically contrast with the older woman's. Margaery's style eventually displaces Cersei's once she arrives in King's Landing.
•Cersei and Margaery are therefore exemplary cases, with so many variant dresses and subtle fashion details that there are extensive quotes and notes for each of them, which warranted giving them their own section separate from the main regional guides.
Daenerys Targaryen goes through some of the most dramatic style evolutions in the entire series, drastically changing her fashions as she travels across Essos and encounters new cultures. She takes some inspiration from each of the cultures she encounters, mixing bits from one and pieces from another to develop her own unique fashion styles.
Daenerys grew up in exile in the Free Cities before her marriage to Khal Drogo and subsequent wandering across Essos. Due to the warmth of many of the lands that she travels through, all of Daenerys' costumes from Season 1 through Season 4 were sleeveless, which is apparently also common for most women's fashions in these regions. In Season 5, as she established her rule in Meereen, her costumes became more elaborate, and Season 6 saw the temporary return of her Dothraki garb. In Seasons 7 and 8, she adopted regal yet practical clothes for her Westerosi campaigns, often in the Targaryen colors of black and red.
Brienne of Tarth is from the Stormlands, but due to her unusual physicality and chosen profession, her costuming style does not reflect her homeland. Brienne is very tall and muscular for a woman by Westerosi standards, and it is incredibly rare for women to be warriors in the Seven Kingdoms, thus her style is unique and doesn't correspond to any standard of clothing or armor found elsewhere in Westeros.
Originally in service to Renly Baratheon, Brienne later pledges herself to Catelyn Stark. Following Catelyn's death, she vows to Jaime Lannister that she will find Catelyn's daughters and get them to safety. Throughout her journeys, Brienne wears armor far more often than ordinary clothing, and goes through a number of style transitions in the process.

As Queen of the Seven Kingdoms, Cersei Lannister is a prominent fashion trendsetter, both for King's Landing and the Westerlands (the region ruled by House Lannister). Westerlands noblewomen imitate Cersei's styles, as do the noblewomen and handmaidens at the royal court in King's Landing, where she has been queen for seventeen years at the beginning of the series. Because of her position, wealth, and base in the capital city (a port that conducts extensive maritime trade with the Free Cities and other locations) Cersei can afford expensive and exotic materials like jewels, gold, and silks for all of her gowns. The use of such materials also put her in contrast with women like Catelyn Stark, as Northern noblewomen aren't as rich and can't afford such finery. It is also warmer in King's landing so Cersei doesn't need to high padded collars the way that Catelyn does.

Margaery Tyrell's costumes go through an in-universe growth process, and the final look that she develops by Season 3 is meant to be a direct contrast with Cersei's style - both to viewers, and as a self-conscious decision that Margaery makes in-universe to differentiate herself from old queen Cersei and assert herself as the rising new queen. Cersei wears many layers of wrapped material, almost like armor to shield herself from other people; Margaery instead wears very revealing clothing with many cutouts, self-consciously wielding her youthful sexuality as a weapon.
See the main pages on "Costumes/Seven Kingdoms - The North", the above sections on Cersei Lannister and Margaery Tyrell, and also "Costumes/Seven Kingdoms - The Vale of Arryn".
Sansa Stark has one of the most intricate costuming progressions of any character in the series. Together with Daenerys, she is one of two characters whose style shifts the most as she travels through different regions. Sansa is also an accomplished seamstress and embroiderer, so she can easily make alterations to her clothing based on necessity and her changing whims: Early on, Sansa shifts in stages from the Northern style of her homeland to Cersei's Westerlands/King's Landing style; After forming a friendship with Margaery Tryell, she begins copying elements from Margaery's Reach-style; Following her escape from King's Landing, she makes a drastic shift to her own unique but Vale-inspired look upon assuming the identity of Alyanne Stone. This Vale-inspired style gradually shifts back to the Northern style from Season 5 onwards, as Sansa reclaims her identity as a true member of House Stark. Although maintaining this Northern aesthetic, her clothes become increasingly unique and elaborate as her role in the political and military conflicts grows, finally culminating in the regal gown she wears upon being crowed Queen in the North.
