Thanks for finding this, alle! That was fun.

So, it's the color that's important for Beth, huh? That explains Click; the colors did look good on Sophia.

I think we have to discount the final 4. In fact, according to his IMDB profile, he did not work on episodes 15 or 16. So maybe the costuming decisions of FtP and Click were imposed from above, like other aspects. The change in clothing styles, especially for Beth, may have reflected the change in tone that characterized the last 4 episodes.

thank you so much for this information! I love costume construction and my secret wish was to study textiles and construction.
This is wonderful tidbits to add to our ML love

I did NOT know that (or maybe I did... but I forgot).

It makes a whole lotta sense. :Mickangel:

Poor Beth.

Great article! Thanks, Alle. :smooch:

He's one member of the creative team that we don't hear very much about. It was nice to finally "meet" him. Image
