Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I am all in all that's kiss You Stars Hollow
- 0:17Speaker 1: Style with Eastern Allen, an iHeart radio podcast.
- 0:22Speaker 2: That's right, everybody, It is Stars Hollow Style and in
- 0:25Speaker 2: depth look at the fashion of Gilmore Girls.
- 0:28Speaker 1: My name is Easton Allen. Thank you so much for
- 0:29Speaker 1: joining me.
- 0:30Speaker 2: We're doing season two, episode ten, the brace Bridge Dinner.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Did you come dressed up? Are you hungry?
- 0:37Speaker 1: I hope?
- 0:37Speaker 2: So we're gonna be talking about some clothes. So we'll
- 0:40Speaker 2: start here with the cold open. Literally, they are freezing,
- 0:45Speaker 2: there's snow on the ground, it is cold outside. I'm
- 0:48Speaker 2: not gonna go too deep into Loreleon Rory's outfits here
- 0:52Speaker 2: because I found them dull. They are in the snow
- 0:57Speaker 2: making snowmen and wearing an all green snowjacket, and Lorelei's
- 1:02Speaker 2: wearing a dull blue one. I just found them kind
- 1:04Speaker 2: of not very exciting. It's hard to make snow clothes exciting.
- 1:08Speaker 2: That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Let's fast forward, though,
- 1:11Speaker 2: because there's a lot of great outfits in this episode.
- 1:13Speaker 2: We're going to the inn. Here, we're jumping ahead to
- 1:16Speaker 2: the inn. Lorli once again wearing a ruffled shirt. She
- 1:20Speaker 2: loves these rouffled tuxedo shirts. She's wearing this one to work.
- 1:24Speaker 2: This one's purple. And something I noticed about this one,
- 1:26Speaker 2: It's got a pinstripe kind of pattern on it, like
- 1:31Speaker 2: it looks almost like fireworks. And I saw her wearing
- 1:36Speaker 2: I think, the same shirt but in a different color
- 1:40Speaker 2: last episode run Away Little Boy, she was wearing a
- 1:43Speaker 2: red one that had the same pattern on it, the
- 1:46Speaker 2: same like. I had a hard time describing it. Then
- 1:48Speaker 2: I have a hard time describing it now. It's like
- 1:50Speaker 2: a fireworks almost. I don't know, but it's a cool
- 1:53Speaker 2: pattern anyway.
- 1:54Speaker 1: This one looks cool.
- 1:55Speaker 2: This is a nice looking shirt. She has paired this
- 1:58Speaker 2: with a pair of black pin strips pants, very profresh.
- 2:02Speaker 2: She walks into the kitchen, and I love Suki and
- 2:06Speaker 2: Jackson's outfits here. Suki is wearing a teal chef shirt,
- 2:10Speaker 2: Jackson wearing a darker gray sweater. They are very complimentary here.
- 2:16Speaker 2: I love when they do this. They often will dress
- 2:18Speaker 2: the couples in, you know, colors that go well with
- 2:22Speaker 2: one another, or just full blown match. I just think
- 2:26Speaker 2: if you look at this scene without having seen Gilmore Girls,
- 2:29Speaker 2: without knowing Jackson and Suki, you you know, right away
- 2:32Speaker 2: that they are an item. You know right away that
- 2:36Speaker 2: they are special to one another because they match visually.
- 2:39Speaker 2: It's a great little signal there. Now we're jumping ahead
- 2:43Speaker 2: to Luke's. Suki, Lorele and Rory are discussing the fallout
- 2:47Speaker 2: of the Brave Bridge group getting snowed in and calling
- 2:50Speaker 2: off the dinner. We're gonna go around the table here.
- 2:53Speaker 2: It's it's a meeting of the sweaters. It's cold outside,
- 2:56Speaker 2: they're in Luke's. They're having a little get together, their discussing.
- 3:00Speaker 2: They are discussing the facts, and they are sweaters ranged
- 3:05Speaker 2: from wild to not. We're gonna start off though with Suki.
- 3:11Speaker 2: She is wearing a very fuzzy burgundy sweater that has
- 3:17Speaker 2: a baffling structure. To me, It took me a long
- 3:19Speaker 2: time to figure out how this thing worked. This is
- 3:21Speaker 2: a cardigan that I have determined has a scarf built
- 3:25Speaker 2: into it. It's like a normal cardigan that you know,
- 3:30Speaker 2: is open at the front, but there's no buttons or anything.
- 3:35Speaker 1: It ties at the neck.
- 3:38Speaker 2: Kind of like a cape with sleeves. But yeah, there's
- 3:42Speaker 2: a scarf at the top there. And at first I
- 3:44Speaker 2: was like, what on earth is this? But then I
- 3:46Speaker 2: kind of liked it. I thought it was fun and functional, Like,
- 3:49Speaker 2: if you don't want to wear a full blown sweater
- 3:53Speaker 2: with a scarf, you can wear whatever this thing is
- 3:56Speaker 2: and it'll keep your neck warm and also give you
- 3:57Speaker 2: some ventilation on your midseict there, and I know I
- 4:01Speaker 2: like that sometimes. Anyway, Underneath, she's got a very nice
- 4:06Speaker 2: earth toned argyle shirt, nice reds and browns in there.
- 4:10Speaker 2: It's nice. It's a wild outfit, but it's cool. Loralai
- 4:15Speaker 2: the next wild outfit of the table, wearing a hot
- 4:18Speaker 2: pink turtleneck, but it's solid and no rhyan stones.
- 4:23Speaker 1: That's fine with me. Rory wearing a dark purple sweater.
- 4:27Speaker 2: They all look very cozy here, very comfortable little meeting
- 4:30Speaker 2: at Luke's. Then we're going to jump to school, the schoolyard.
- 4:35Speaker 2: Jess is in this kind of wild fight with another
- 4:38Speaker 2: student and Dean breaks it up. It almost becomes collateral damage.
- 4:44Speaker 2: But we need to point out Jess's outfit here. I'm
- 4:46Speaker 2: not gonna talk about Dean. I'm gonna talk about Jess.
- 4:48Speaker 2: I am paying close attention to the shirts he wears.
- 4:51Speaker 2: I think it's very interesting. He wears a lot of
- 4:53Speaker 2: graphic te's that are very deliberate, and you get to
- 4:55Speaker 2: know a lot about Jess's character. He's been in the
- 4:58Speaker 2: show for a few episodes out, but he's still kind
- 5:00Speaker 2: of new in terms of the scope of the whole series.
- 5:03Speaker 2: He's new to Stars Hollow, we are still getting to
- 5:04Speaker 2: know him. He's wearing a white thermal. I believe he
- 5:08Speaker 2: is contractually obligated to wear a thermal at all times,
- 5:12Speaker 2: but layered on top of that, let's not forget this
- 5:15Speaker 2: is two thousand and one, so this is a very
- 5:17Speaker 2: popular look at the time. He's wearing a red Punk
- 5:20Speaker 2: Planet Magazine T shirt. Now, if you don't know what
- 5:24Speaker 2: that is, Punk Planet Magazine, it was a zine that's
- 5:27Speaker 2: what we call those out of Chicago that ran from
- 5:29Speaker 2: nineteen ninety four to two thousand and seven, and I
- 5:32Speaker 2: just followed the ins and outs of the punk scene
- 5:35Speaker 2: from the mid to late nineties and into the two thousands. Dean,
- 5:40Speaker 2: He's wearing a Metallica sweat or a shirt. A few
- 5:42Speaker 2: episodes ago. This guy likes alternative music, and if he's
- 5:45Speaker 2: wearing a Punk Planet Magazine T shirt, that means he's
- 5:48Speaker 2: very much in the know.
- 5:50Speaker 1: And if you want to be just like Jess.
- 5:53Speaker 2: There are etsy sites that make reproductions of this shirt,
- 5:56Speaker 2: not in the same color, not the red. There's ones
- 5:58Speaker 2: that make him in black. But they are out there,
- 6:01Speaker 2: and I think this is very cool. You can read
- 6:03Speaker 2: every issue of Punk Planet on the Internet Archive. Thank
- 6:08Speaker 2: you so much Internet Archive for capturing these valuable pieces
- 6:11Speaker 2: of media where they are no longer available anywhere else.
- 6:15Speaker 2: So anyway, that is a Punk Planet magazine, and now
- 6:19Speaker 2: you know all about it. Let's get to the big
- 6:23Speaker 2: fancy dinner. Everyone looks great here. It's really really fun.
- 6:27Speaker 2: I love this. I love that everybody got dressed up
- 6:29Speaker 2: for this fancy dinner. Rory wearing a light brown dress
- 6:34Speaker 2: with an embroidered vine pattern on it. It's pretty fun.
- 6:38Speaker 2: And then Dean shows up with his younger sister Clara,
- 6:41Speaker 2: and Rory asks for black and white skirt is a
- 6:44Speaker 2: Stella McCarty and Clara says it's a Walmart. Very funny
- 6:48Speaker 2: little fashion moment there that we get to explore here
- 6:50Speaker 2: on stars Hollow Style the Gilmore Girls Fashion podcast. Lorali
- 6:55Speaker 2: wearing a black scoop neck dress and she looks incredible.
- 6:59Speaker 1: I love this.
- 7:01Speaker 2: The dinner they're doing is very much a like a
- 7:06Speaker 2: historical thing. It's a throwback to another time, as you'll
- 7:11Speaker 2: see Kirk and the other servers wearing period garb.
- 7:14Speaker 1: I don't think the guests.
- 7:16Speaker 2: Are required to dress in that, but because Loralai looks
- 7:19Speaker 2: very modern obviously. That being said, I just love this outfit.
- 7:25Speaker 2: I love this dress. I think she looks great, her
- 7:28Speaker 2: hair looks great, she's letting it be wavy. It's it's
- 7:30Speaker 2: just I love she looks so good.
- 7:32Speaker 1: In this scene. I kept rewinding it and going back
- 7:35Speaker 1: and looking at it again. I just love it.
- 7:37Speaker 2: So it's a very simple dress, but it looks so
- 7:39Speaker 2: good on her.
- 7:40Speaker 1: It's just it's excellent.
- 7:42Speaker 2: And during the dinner, Paris is pointing out the historical
- 7:46Speaker 2: discrepancies in the dress of the server. She's being very
- 7:48Speaker 2: nitpicky here of Kirk and the others, and she says,
- 7:52Speaker 2: the illusion was shattered by the fossil watch your server
- 7:56Speaker 2: was wearing. And I enjoyed the fossil shout out. We
- 7:59Speaker 2: know that Rory wears a G Shock, a baby g
- 8:03Speaker 2: g Shock watch. Apparently the other servers are wearing fossil
- 8:07Speaker 2: This hit close to home for me because this weekend,
- 8:10Speaker 2: as we record this I am participating in a historic
- 8:14Speaker 2: home tour in my hometown of Monrovia, California, and I
- 8:18Speaker 2: will be giving a tour of a house from the
- 8:21Speaker 2: nineteen twenties, and I need to dress in period garb,
- 8:26Speaker 2: period of clothing. So I looked up nineteen twenties clothes
- 8:29Speaker 2: on Amazon and I bought some stuff. But I'm afraid
- 8:33Speaker 2: someone like Paris is gonna come through and shout out
- 8:35Speaker 2: that my and point out that my Mickey Mouse Watch
- 8:38Speaker 2: is from the nineteen sixties and up from the nineteen twenties.
- 8:41Speaker 2: I'm going to get roasted by these historic home tour fans,
- 8:45Speaker 2: so please pray for me.
- 8:46Speaker 1: I'm gonna need it.
- 8:49Speaker 2: Moving on, after the dinner, we get another look at
- 8:53Speaker 2: Lorelei's Saint Bernard's Bulldog's pajama shirt. We are on pajama
- 8:56Speaker 2: watch over here constantly. We love Laura pajamas. We have
- 9:01Speaker 2: talked about this Saint Bernard's Bulldogs and done a deep
- 9:04Speaker 2: dive in a previous episode, so you probably remember that.
- 9:07Speaker 2: And I like when you see the characters wear clothes
- 9:11Speaker 2: over and over again.
- 9:11Speaker 1: It makes it feel real.
- 9:12Speaker 2: It gives it a sense that they're not getting dressed
- 9:15Speaker 2: by wardrobe department. This is a closet that they pick
- 9:18Speaker 2: from and they wear these clothes a lot. So I
- 9:20Speaker 2: enjoyed seeing Lorelei in this shirt again. It was really fun.
- 9:24Speaker 2: Those are the outfits for season two, episode ten, the
- 9:28Speaker 2: Bracebridge Dinner.
- 9:30Speaker 1: A lot of good looks, a lot of wild looks.
- 9:32Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about our least favorite and our most
- 9:34Speaker 1: favorite outfits. You know. Least I gotta go with Suki's
- 9:41Speaker 1: sweater scarf thing.
- 9:43Speaker 2: I ended up liking it, but mostly it confused me
- 9:47Speaker 2: and just a weird thing to see. I didn't I
- 9:52Speaker 2: guess I liked it in terms of an engineering feat.
- 9:55Speaker 2: I like the features of it. I don't like how
- 9:57Speaker 2: it's executed. That's what we're going with. So that's why
- 9:59Speaker 2: it's my least married outfit that she wears at Luke Steiner.
- 10:02Speaker 2: My favorite outfit of the night of the episode is
- 10:06Speaker 2: Laurlai Laurli's black dress at the dinner.
- 10:09Speaker 1: I think she looked great. I loved it. This is
- 10:11Speaker 1: it's amazing. I just you know, it's funny.
- 10:13Speaker 2: I think it was last episode she got dressed up
- 10:16Speaker 2: to go on a date and everyone was talking about
- 10:17Speaker 2: how great she looked and I just wasn't seeing it.
- 10:20Speaker 2: If she had worn this, I would have been right
- 10:22Speaker 2: there with him. I would have been like, oh my god, Lourally,
- 10:23Speaker 2: you look amazing. Are you going on a date. So
- 10:27Speaker 2: I clearly have different tastes than the nice citizens of
- 10:30Speaker 2: stars Hollow. But let us know what you think on
- 10:33Speaker 2: our Instagram at iam on podcast we have pictures posted
- 10:36Speaker 2: there because this is a very visual thing, and yet
- 10:38Speaker 2: I'm doing an audio podcast about it. Why is that
- 10:41Speaker 2: they told me to? But let us know on Instagram
- 10:44Speaker 2: what you think and I'll see it back here. Next
