Cozy up with some comforting (to us, at least) films that fit a vague autumnal theme! We know we are in need of some comfort right now, so we hope our podcast can be a little escape from reality for you too. Costuming has always been a field that welcomes people who have felt othered, and that extends to our podcast. We are leading with love and acceptance. You are welcome here with us.

Consider this your stop if you want to get on a soapbox about TV shows that started really good and then crashed and burned. Because we're getting into two episodes of a couple of shows that did exactly that--Once Upon a Time (episode 1x07) and Riverdale (episode 1x01). Get into it!

It's time for some fun chick flicks today! Join us as we get into the costumes in The Princess Diaries and 27 Dresses, discussing Harry Winston, Gone with the Wind, and of course, the many charms of James Marsden.

Note: something that came up when Sarah looked for IG accounts to tag from these designers is that DeBora Rachelle was a huge name in prom dress designers! Explains why her work is in 27 Dresses. Sorry we missed the chance to chat about that!
