  Speaker 1: this week. If you want to cue up your Netflix
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: or your Smart TV or wherever you watch Gilmore Girls.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: This is a notable episode in the world of Gilmore
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Girls costumes and wardrobe because up until this point, every
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: episode has had the same costume designer, and that is
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Caroline B. Marx. This episode season one, episode eighteen, the
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: third Laura I is the very first one with a
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: new costume designer. This one is Robin Lewis West. She
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: is taking on the mantle. She is taking on the
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: watch of the costumes of Gilmore Girls. She worked on
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: forty eight episodes of Gilmore Girls, and that's basically the
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: rest of season one, all of season two, and all
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: of season three. So we're under Robin's leadership here costume
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: wise for the foreseeable fear future. Let's talk about Robin
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Lewis West for a second. Okay, a really interesting resume
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: for this costume designer, so many TV shows. But what
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: I want to point out that besides Gilmore Girls she
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: worked on her first credit is in nineteen eighty five
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: a movie called Reanimator. And I don't know if you've
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: seen re Animator, but it is a This is a
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: horror movie about a guy who brings who's doing some
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: weird experiments and he's bringing the dead back to life,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: and it's it's it's weird. It's a weird one. Barbara
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Crampton's in this movie, but she was the costume designer
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: on re Animator. She was also the costume designer for
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Honey Shrunk, The Kids Pretty Awesome, and the page master
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: with Macaulay Culkin. A mixture of animation and live action
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: she has had. All those movies require many different needs
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: when it comes to costumes, and so I'm excited to
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: see if we notice any kind of difference here from
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Robin Lewis West as we venture into Gilmore Girls. She's
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: also done the OC She's done a movie called Bitch Slap,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: which is kind of fun. Many many TV shows over
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: the years, but Gilmore Girls one of the most. So.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: She did seventy five episodes a Chuck and eighty six
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: episodes of Bones. She is used to sticking around on
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: a TV show, and I'm excited to see what we
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: have in store from Robin Lewis West. Anyway, So welcome
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Robin Lewis West. So excited about this. Let's get into
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: this episode. Okay, here's what we're gonna do. We're going
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: to go through beat by beat of this episode. The
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: third Laura, I'm going to talk about the outfits that
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: stuck out to me, and then at the end we're
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: gonna talk about our favorites, our least favorites. I forgot
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: to do that last week, and I'm sorry. I want
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: to apologize to you guys from the bottom of my heart.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I forgot to talk about my favorites and my least favorites,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: and I realize it when it was far too late.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: But I just want you to know I'm sorry. It'll
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: happen again. I promise it will happen again, but I'm
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: going to try to make it happen not that often. Okay,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: I will do it this time. I will. This episode,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: we start off at Friday night dinner, as most episodes do.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Rory is wearing a long sleeve white shirt with these
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: like red rose embroidery patterns on the sleeves and then
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: like this chaffon thing on the collar. It's it's a
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: cool shirt. I like this. And she matches the rose
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: arrangement on the table there, which is a fun little detail.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Lorele I is wearing a sheer striped shirt over a
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: black tank top and a knee length black skirt. Pretty
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: standard fare for lorale I. Here this sheer shirt. I
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: don't know if i'd wear that to dinner with my parents,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: but you know it's cool. Emily, Oh my god, We
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: love talking about Emily's outfits. I'm just she has not
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: worn something bad that I've seen yet, but I want
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: to point out what she's wearing this first Friday night
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: dinner scene. She's wearing this teal coat with like a
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: white collar that goes down the edges of the coat
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: as it buttons up, and then a matching skirt. It's
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: a great teal. I love a ce foam green. I
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: love those kind of teals, and this one looks so
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: good on her. She always looks so great. This is
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: just another fabulous outfit from Emily Gilmore. Now let's go
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: to the inn the Independence in Lorelei and Michelle are
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: trying to figure out a buggy reservation software. They are
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: working on a PowerMac G four cube, which would have
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: been a brand new computer in two thousand and one,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: and man, they don't make computers like this anymore. It's
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: so cool. It's got the wide screen, it's clear, it's
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: got this like clear plastic housing. It's just a neat computer.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: I know it's not the fashion, but I just wanted
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: to point that out for a second. Loura is wearing
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: like a black cardigan over a green, yellow and red
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: groovy looking turtleneck that's got this like blocky pattern. It
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: almost looks it's very like mod and then it's got
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: a really neat sixties looking flower on the neck of
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: this turtleneck. And a very groovy outfit there, and the
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: first of many groovy fits we're going to see from
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Lourle in this episode. Now, let's go back to the
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Gilmour house. Rory and Laura are getting ready to have
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: dinner with Richard's mother, who's coming to town. Rory's never
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: met her great grandmother before, and Loralai has not seen
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: her in many, many years. I really love Rory's dress
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: in this scene for this first meeting with Tricks, Rory's
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: wearing a navy kind of floral pattern dress. It's just
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: very classy. It looks great on her. I think it
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: looks really great with her hair. We found a very
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: similar dress, not the exact same one. I don't think
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: it might be, but this one is a dead ringer baby.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: This is a Ralph Lauren dress. It's three hundred and
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: seventy five dollars. I think we'll link it on Instagram.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's called the floral crepe Midi dress. We found
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: this on the Ralph Lauren website, and you can look
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: just like Rory as she's having dinner with her great grandmother.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: She's also paired it with a cute heart charm necklace.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: And as we go into this dinner with Tricks, we
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: have a very exciting costume method of moving the plot
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: that we are going to get into. After these words, Hi,
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: it Stars Hollow Style, My name is Easton. Thanks for
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: hanging out with us. Thanks for listening to those commercials
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: and patronizing these lovely businesses that choose to advertise with
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: us here on the iml in podcast network. It's season one,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: episode eighteen, the Third Laurel I. We are at dinner
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: at the Gilmore residence, the Elder Gilmour's, and we're meeting
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: Tricks for the first time. The Third Laurel I, as
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: is the title of the episode, Richard's Mother. But we
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: need to discuss what Laureli is wearing to this dinner.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: She is wearing a black dress. I found it to
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: be dull. I was like, I don't think I need
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: to talk about this dress. It's not very exciting. But
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: my lovely wife Allison, who was watching the episode with
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: she pointed out that this is an important feature that
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: she's wearing this boring, dull dress. Lourlai is very interested
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: and excited about seeing her mother, Emily be kind of
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: tortured by Tricks because they do not get along very well.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Tricks criticizes Emily and is just relentless, and Laura I
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: kind of enjoys watching her mother be have this pain
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: inflicted on her. But also Laura wants to be accepted
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: by her grandmother, so she would normally wear probably something
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: colorful and kind of crazy, even to these Friday night dinners,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: she'll still wear stuff like that. No, she has chosen
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: a black, subdued dress here, a something more low key
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: that shows that she wants she does not want to
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: offend her grandmother who's coming to town. She wants to
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: be accepted by her. I think that was an interesting
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: narrative detail there, as pointed out by my wife Allison,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: and later in the episod, Loralai is rushing home to
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: change before going to high tea and she is wearing
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: a colorful shirt and she changes into another black dress,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: something of subdued. Very interesting there. Now let's go to
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Chilton Paris and her friends are out of their uniforms
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: are studying. They're not in the plaid uniforms here, and
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: I just want to point out they're all wearing like
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: pretty standard like teenager outfits. But Paris is wearing this
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: like beige leather jacket that I I don't know if
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: I liked it or didn't like it, but it stuck
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: out to me. I kept looking at that, I kept
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: thinking about it. It's it's got it doesn't have buttons,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: it's a zip up jacket, and I thought it made
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: her look kind of look like a secret agent and
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: another like kind of mod look. We talked about that
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: a bit earlier, but it's a cool jacket. She wears
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: it for a significant portion of the episode, and she's
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: wearing these plaid pants too, and it's it's you know,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: I think they're trying to make her look very plain here.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: But I did like that jacket. I think maybe I didn't.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know. See for yourself. We'll post some of
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: these outfits on Instagram. You can let me know in
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: the comments over there. I go on there every day,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: I look at them, I read them, So let me
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: know what you think of Paris's base jacket there now
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: and speaking up Paris. She shows up at Rory's house
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: that night because she needs help picking out an outfit.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: She's going on a date with Tristan and she needs help.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: She's not a fashion girly no, I mean she's writing
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: blad pants and and a beige leather jacket. What's going
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: on here? She needs to look cool, she needs to
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: look hip. She made, in my opinion, makes a very
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: dangerous choice by allowing Rory to take her to Lorelei's
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: room to pick out clothes. No greater fashion realm in
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: All Stars Hollow than Lorala Gilmore's closet. I would not
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: walk into that. I would not walk in lightly into that,
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: that that temple of wild clothing. But Paris is down,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: she's ready to be styled by Rory. They go through
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: Lorelai's closet again, just so much crazy stuff in there.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: They land on a pink and fuchia top with this
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: like kind of vintage looking far out groovy pattern. It's
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: it's kind of like it's almost like tidy Paisley. I
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: don't know how to describe this. It's really really a
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: wild design on this top that Paris is wearing. And
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: my wife also pointed out that Paris. Earlier in that scene,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: says that her mother said that pink makes her head
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: look small, which is a really strange burn. But the
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: top they settled on has a lot of pink in it,
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: so she's open to exploring new ideas by by wearing
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: this this top on her date with Tristan. So now
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: we're gonna move on to a lead in the episode.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: After finding out that Tricks wants to set up a
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: trust fund for Rory, Lorale and Souki are walking around
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: stars Hollow. They're picking out flowers. We need to talk
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: about Lorali's outfit here. It's just another another great old
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: time Lorale fit. She is wearing a black corduroy jacket
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: over a really cool Hawaiian shirt with like waves and
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: I think a surfer on it. I tried to find
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: this shirt, you guys. I tried really hard. I could
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: not find it. It looks a lot like other Hawaiian shirts,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: but a very cool look. I'm gonna try this myself.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: I'm going to try and get a black corduroy jacket
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: and wear a Hawaiian shirt when I'm just walking around town.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: It looked, it looks really cool. And then when Lorelei
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: goes to tea with her grandmother and with her mom,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: she's wearing this like brown dress with this like kind
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: of floral foliage pattern on it. Another you know, subdued
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: classy look when she's meeting with Tricks. Interesting interesting looks here.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: We learn a lot about these characters through their close
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: in this episode. Okay, as I promised, this is when
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: I bailed on you guys last time, and I'm so sorry.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: I really am. I feel guilty about that. It's kept
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: me up at night and I'm not going to do
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: it again. We're going to talk about my favorite and
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: my least favorite outfits here. Let's start with least favorite.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: We always like to lead with hate over here. My
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: least favorite outfit in this episode has got to be
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: you know, that first dinner with Tricks where Lorelei's wearing
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: the black dress. I just found it dull. I found
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: it uninteresting. I almost didn't talk about it at all.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: I don't like it. I know what Laurel is trying
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: to do here, but I don't have to like it.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: We're not talking about the story, we're not talking about
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: the dialogue. We're talking about the clothes. You guys and
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: that that dress did not wow me. I was not wowed. Okay,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: so that's my least favorite, my favorite, I think, oh man,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: I really liked the Hawaiian shirt with the koruroy jacket,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: but I think what my favorite outfit was. Yeah, I'm
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: going with that. I am going with the one of
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: the last things you see Lorala wearing when she's walking
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: around Stars Hollow, the black quarter jacket over the Hawaiian shirt.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: I liked it. I liked it a lot. I know
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: I criticize Lourai's wardrobe all the time, but it's just
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: because I love. Because I'm jealous. That's why. That's why
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: I talk. That's why I make fun of it because
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: I'm jealous. I want it. I want to wear it
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: all myself. What were your favorites though? Please let me
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: know on Instagram or something, or come to my front
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: door and tell me. I just want to know. I
