• 1:17
  Speaker 1: jumped out at me. A fashion expert, a fashion icon,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Easton Allen, and we're going to talk about what they're wearing,

• 1:39
  Speaker 1: and I hope you are enjoying this show along with me.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: So let's get into it. Let's always se any time.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Let's talk some Gilmore girls here. Okay, Like Mother, Like
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Daughter is the episode. Costume designer is Robin Lewis West
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: and this episode, if you remember, it has a fashion
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: show in it, so that is pretty dang exciting for
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: a centric podcast. Oh my god, I can't wait this
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: cold open. We're seeing red at this cold open. Okay,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I thought this is very interesting what they dressed Loralai
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: and Rory and Luke in for this scene there, Lorala
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: and Rory go to Luke Steiner, and their outfits are
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: kind of a combination of the spectrum of red. Rory's
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: wearing like a very dark red cardigan with an embroidered
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: flower detail on the right hand side, whereas Laura I
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: is wearing a pink like ombre long sleeved shirt. It's
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: like very hot pink at the top and then it
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: kind of dissolves into a darker pink near the end
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: of her sleeves. And of course, because it's Laura, she's
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: got a rhyanstone. She has rhinestone details around the pockets
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: and the collar. Every single item she wears has to
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: have at least four or five rhinestones. That is a
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: law that is in the Stars Hollow Town Charter that
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Laura Gilmore has to be no more than four centimeters
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: away from a Ryan Stone at any given moment. This
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: is a I think this is a nice shirt though.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: I think it's very fun. And then what really ties
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: us together though in this scene, is that is Luke.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Luke Steiner. You see him come over and he's wearing
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: a flannel shirt. I'm shocked, but he's wearing a flannel shirt.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: It's made up of red and like light pink plaid,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: and it looks like it's like a perfect combination of
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Rory and Laura Li's outfits. It looks like if you
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: kind of put them in a blender together, you would
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: get Luke's flannel. I thought it was really interesting and
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: really exciting to see this level of cohesion, right off
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: the bat on the episode. I thought it was really fun.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: And if you've seen this episode before, which I know
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: you have, it ends on a red moment too, So
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: call me Taylor Swift. This is this is red. We're
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: in our red era. So the next scene, as they're
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: getting ready for the day, Lorelai has transitioned into a
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: more pastel pink. She's wearing a pink button up blouse
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: with what looks like it looks like an embroidered flower
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: pattern on it, but a closer look, it is not embroidered.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: It's like a screen. It's printed, but it looks it's
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: like a style that looks like embroidery. Looks like big
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: thick embroidery, honestly, but it is not is printed onto
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: the shirt. It's nice as cute, you know. We kind
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: of are back and forth on what Lorala wears to work.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I thought this was a nice shirt. I thought it
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: was kind of nice and springy, and I enjoyed it. However,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: when lorele goes to meet with the headmaster at Chilton,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: she brings out a shirt we have seen from her before.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: She has this like lavender tuxedo roughly shirt. It's a
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: feminine tuxedo shirt. It's got like four ruffled stripes down it,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: and we've seen it from her in season one. She's
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: worn versions of this before. This is a formal shirt
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: for Laura. I mean, she's going to meet the headmaster
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: of her daughter's school. It's a very important school. She
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: at this point she's really aiming to go to Harvard,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: so this is a big deal. Loralai is dressing for
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: the occasion and wearing her ruffley tuxedo shirt. There's something
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: I would not wear, but Lorali sees this as a
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: as formal attire, so that is what she's wearing. At
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: least it doesn't have a graphic on it. That's all
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: we can hope for here. It looks fine, I guess,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: but you know, it also like reminds me of like
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: the Wedding Singer or Dumb and Dumber or something. It
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: just evokes a certain feeling when you see a shirt
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: that's like lavender, powder blue in that spectrum and then
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: you pair it with the ruffles. I just think it's
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: kind of kind of weird, But that's Lourai for you.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: She's wacky. Then we go to the Lorelei's parents house.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: They're having I think this is a fright dinner. I
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: couldn't really. I assumed it was, but then Richard wasn't there,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: so I didn't know what to if this was just
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: there they hanging out midweek or something. But we'll just
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: say it's right. And dinner, they go to Emily's house
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: and they're barbecuing. I head out back we're barbecuing. Loralai
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: is wearing a sleeveless purple top and Emily has this
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: bronze and black Paisley jacket. I thought that was kind
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: of nice and cool and different for Emily. She's usually
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: wearing those Saint John suits buttoned all the way up.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: This is an unbuttoned jacket, and again it's Paisley, something
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: that Laura I also loves to wear. So I enjoyed
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: seeing I like in this episode is called like Mother,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Like Daughter. I like seeing how their styles kind of
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: interact and mesh, and you can see the origin of
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: the love for Paisley here on Emily's jacket. Next, we
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: have to talk about this boostom meeting. Oh my god,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: a cornerstone Loralai fashion moment. With this booster meeting, you
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: need to prepare yourself. I need to prepare myself. And
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: while we do that, I'm gonna let another voice tell
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: you about some very fine products and services. One second,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: we're back. We are back. Thank you for sticking around,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: Thank you for joining us on Stars Hollow Style. My
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: name is Easton Allen. We're talking about season two, episode seven,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Like Mother, Like Daughter, a great episode for fashion. Was
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: so much to chew on here, so much to get into.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Let's go back to what we were talking about before
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: those lovely commercials, the booster meeting. Lurla wants to join
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the boosters for Chilton in a way to curry some
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: favor for her daughter, trying to get her into the
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: extracurriculars and also raise her social status. That's something Laura
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: is very interested in doing. This scene, it begs the question.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: We talk about this a lot. How does Laurlai get
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: dressed in the morning? How does she make these decisions?
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: How does she pick out what she's gonna wear? I mean,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: some of the choices she makes so baffling, just beyond baffling.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: And again I know that's the point. I know that
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: that's what they're trying to tell you about the character.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: But even knowing that in suspending that disbelief. I'm just like,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: what on earth are you wearing this shirt she's wearing
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: in this scene. No one says anything about it, but
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: it's a black long sleeve shirt with printed Chinese characters
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: on the sleeves looks like Tiger Lily's and then a
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Buddha looking character in the center, with the English words
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: fortune Boy printed on the bottom. I found this deeply offensive,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: and I just I know it was a different time.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: I just feel like, like it is not okay for
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: Laura to wear this shirt. It really is not. I
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: really found a defensive However, I was able to identify
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: this shirt. It is Custo Barcelona. Custo Custo. I still
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure how to pronounce that Custo Barcelona. These
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: shirts pop up pretty frequently. One of them just sold
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: on d pop for seventy five dollars. So if I
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: won't judge you, but if for some reason you want
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: to wear this shirt too, maybe you want it for
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: just a collection of weird things people have worn on
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: TV shows. But if you want this, just search eBay,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: search d pop, get unvented. Maybe in search Fortune Boy,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Cousto Custo Barcelona, you will find this shirt. I promise you.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: They do pop up. Anyway, Also in this scene, I
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: want to point out the appearance of the character Ava,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: played by Brenda Strong. Brenda Strong was the narrator on
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Desperate Housewives. She was Sue, Ellen, Miski, and Seinfeld. She
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: is extremely cool. She's a great actor. She's just the best.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: I had the pleasure of interviewing her on another iteration
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: of this podcast we used to do called I Smell
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: Pop Culture. I interviewed her about this very scene, and
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: it was one of my favorite interviews we did in
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: the entire run of those. So I employ you to
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: go back and listen to that if you are interested
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: in the character of Ava or Brenda Strong as an actor.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: She's so cool and has so many incredible stories and
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: she's just worked with every great director known to man,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: and I really enjoy talking to her that day, So
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: I invite you to give that a listen at some
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: point too. Anyway, but she is she's wearing a normal
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: outfit in this scene. She's just wearing like a gray suit,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: like a great like jacket and a skirt, and she
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: looks great, not like Laura Lei's Fortune Boy I'm sorry
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: to say so anyway, but I'm just so excited to
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: get to this next scene. I'm so pumped because we've
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: been doing this show Stars Hollow Style for a while
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: and now, I mean, we're in season two, episode seven,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: we're working our way through the show. This is the
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: first time we've had a real fashion show on our hands.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: We're talking about clothes and they're having a fashion show
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: on the show itself. This is so great, makes my
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: job super easy. So let's become let's sit on the
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: runway here, let's let's become the announcer. I don't know
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: if I've never been to a fashion show myself. I
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: don't know if they have those, but they do. Now.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: This is a Stars Hollow fashion show for the Chiltern Boosters,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: being held at the Independence Inn. First up is Ava.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: She leads the pack. She's walking down the runway wearing
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: a black sleeveless halterneck dress with a sparkly rose pattern,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: and let me say, it looks stunning. I love this
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: dress on Ava. I thought, what a great way to
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: open the show. She looks so glamorous. The dress is awesome.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: I just love it. And then after her, we have
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: some unnamed booster members walking the runway. First up in
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: a zebra style jacket, then another in a silver tweed
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: suit with horizontal stripes. Looks looks fine, and then the
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Saint John comes out. Another booster remember, walks the runway
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: wearing a Saint John Green Tweed checker jacket and skirt combo.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: I thought this was very nice. I imagine Emily was
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: backstage thirsting over this combo. She wanted to wear it herself.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: She loves Saint John. I found this exact suit on
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: a Thai consignment site, a site based in Thailand. I
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: am not going to link it to you because it
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: don't I don't think it's real. I feel like this
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: is a scam, so I'm not going to to link it.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: But I did see it on the internet, so you know,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: if you search Saint John Green Tweed checker jacket, you
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: will find the suit that this booster member is wearing.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: It's really nice. It's really nice interesting Saint John. Normally
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: there's solid colors, so seeing a pattern on this I
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: thought was very cool and very exciting. And there probably
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: are more out there for you to get if that's
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: something you want to do. And then Finally, we have
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Loralai and Emily as the mother daughter combo. They're wearing
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: matching red jackets with black accents, tying together the red
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: spectrum from earlier in the episode. I don't think they're
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: wearing Saint John, but it is clearly inspired by that
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: style with the big buttons and the way it's the
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: silhouette is very Saint John to me, and I thought
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: this was just a nice moment when Emily says to Lorelai,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: how interesting you're embracing the world that you ran away from,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: and they're wearing the exact same thing, and Loralai is
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: truly becoming parts of her form were life. Now we're
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: back to Pajama Watch. There's a lot of pajama talk
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: on this show, and we're back to it. Rory is
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: going to get kidnapped by the Puffs in the middle
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: of the night to do a prank, a hazing prank,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: which does not turn out well for her, and Laura
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: I tips her off so that she's wearing cute pajamas,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: which is nice because Paris does not get that same
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: she's not afforded that same morning. But Rory's pajamas are
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: very cute. They're like cake dessert pajamas. They've got like
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: they've got cakes, they've got cupcakes, they've got like batter.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: It's a it's a very cute pajama set. This one's
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: made by Nick and Nora, which Laura I or sorry
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Rory has worn before. Rory's worn the maybe these exact pajamas.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: They looked familiar. I know she's worn at least one
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: other set of Nick and Nora pajamas. They don't make
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: these anymore. Nick and Nora is not in production. However,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: they do appear on eBay from time to time. I
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: found a similar set on eBay that was the Macaroon
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: style or sorry on Poshmark. I found those on Poshmark.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: They were Nick norm Macaroon pajamas, not the dessert slash
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: cake ones, so I'm sorry they're not the exact ones.
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: But Nick and Nor pajamas go up on Poshmark, on
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: de Pop, on eBay pretty frequently. These ones, these Macaron ones,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: were twenty five bucks, so if you can find them,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: they're gonna be used. Use pajamas feels weird to me,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: but who am I to judge? Anyway? Those are our
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: outfits for this episode. That is the fashion show. It
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: has concluded. The runway is now dark. Let's go through
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: and talk about our favorite fits, our favorite looks, or
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: we'll start with our least favorite. How about that. Let's
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: let's build the good stuff at the end. My least
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: favorite outfit of this episode has to be lorealized fortune
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: boy shirt. My god, just baffling. I don't know why
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: would you wear this? Why on anyway would you wear
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: this shirt? Horrible, especially when you're meeting like people you
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: want to impress, like on Earth, Laura, Like, what's going on?
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: Did you did you look in the mirror? Did you

• 16:20
  Speaker 1: say my favorite outfit was was what Ava wore at
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: the fashion show. That that long, sleeveless, haltered neck dress.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: I loved it, I really did. I watched that moment
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: over and over over. I just kept rewinding it. I
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: really like that dress. That was great. Brenda Strung is
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: a stunning actor, and she wears that dress so well.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: She's so tall, she's so tall, and just she looks
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: like a model, and it's crazy because she's such a
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: such a skilled actor too. She's got so many talents,
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: and she looked great in that dress. I loved it. Anyway,
