the best thing about the whole Wednesday show, this woman is a genius bless her

[@treemerryweather]

I loved Colleen Atwood's discussion of her process here...and I can't wait for next season

[@Gilsworth]

I immediately clicked on this because I know next to nothing about fashion, but in watching the show I could feel some ineffable quality about the aesthetic that I couldn't put into words. My favourite thing about the internet is getting to experience expertise that is almost spoon fed to you. Love hearing professionals discuss their craft. Makes me appreciate how little I know and how much is out there. Cheers!

An absolute legend. Her costumes are iconic and intelligent.

[@gult5203]

I love the way she explains the details

[@villanas]

I absolutely love these! It was magical to hear about the process ❤

[@radicalgal]

As someone who loves black and white (I think it’s called monochrome) and bright and colourful outfits, I loved the outfits in this show

[@addyrovirosa1800]

I think you might be thinking of achromatic? White and black are technically not hues/colors if I remember correctly. This show was pure fashion inspo for me as well 😂
