Whatisntnew right now, however, is the shows signature noisy, chaotic luxury.
We dont like quiet luxury, says costume designerAlex Bovairdof the aesthetic of Mike Whites dark comedy.
She says, The characters are almost dressing like theyre postcards.
Everyones putting on a show.
Astyleshow, that is.
The value of the jewelry alone is enough to place the characters in the top 1 percentile.
When we traveled, we had a bodyguard who would sit next to us on the plane.
And the lucky one with the most expensive accessory these days?
Parker Poseys Victoria Ratliff.
She wears so much designer clothing, Bovaird says.
She has an expensive Hermes watch that is beautiful and has the most bags.
The characters celeb status helped justify her wardrobe.
So we imagine that some of Kates designer pieces were handed out by Jaclyn.
As the seasons progressed, fashion girls seemed to have entered aWhite Lotusfever dream.
Viewers are ID-ing pieces from the show and wearing White Lotus-core in their day-to-day.
Quiet luxury has been such a big trend in recent years.
What canThe White Lotuscostumes teach us about luxury dressing?
You dont have to shop particularly high-end.
Hermes has some absolutely amazing resort wear that epitomizesWhite Lotus.
It has a vintage flair, but its also modern.
You said Jaclyn has the most expensive wardrobe right now.
Between her and Tanya, whosupposedly spends around $63,000 a day, who do you think spends more?
They both spend a lot of money.
Since we were in Thailand, theres less clothing.
Its so hot there.
Sleeveless slip dresses or walking in your bikini top and a skirt all day is preferable.
So maybe Tanya has the edge because we were in Italy, and the climate allowed more clothing.
Online, theres a lot of thirst over Walton Goggins and his unbuttoned Hawaiian shirts.
Could you talk about his styling?
Walton is such a great fashion muse.
Hes really easy to dress and wears clothes so well.
So when everything works perfectly, thats when were like, Oh, what a great outfit.
Its based on a 50s pattern, so its a bit shorter.
Or the one he arrives in, we got in Bangkok.
Theres a huge vintage market in Bangkok.
Its good for men to mix it up a little bit.
Saxons character is really despised.
How did you bring out his arrogant personality via his wardrobe?
Hes still very attractive, but his shorts length isnt perfect.
His polo fit isn’t perfect.
Hes gotten the clothes off the rack, and nothings tailored.
Its a subtle thing.
Hes got cool sunglasses, but theyre kind of obnoxious.
People are also talking aboutLochlans reality check T-shirt, wondering whether that’s going to be an Easter egg.
That’s a little tongue-in-cheek for sure, because it seemed to really fit his character and his personality.
My husbands from the South, so he knew that that was a bank.
Its from Charlotte, North Carolina, so he got that T-shirt; its a bang-on meta reference.
Is there a surprising behind-the-scenes story you could share?
It was like our own little Bergdorf Goodman.
So we did borrow the costumes.
There was one time we were freaking out because we couldnt find a hat.
You must keep everything together for continuity.
If suddenly somebody doesnt have their earrings on anymore, then you’ve ruined the whole episode.
So when we couldnt find a hat, we were all freaking out.
Then, a couple of weeks later, we saw the actress walking to breakfast in the hat.
Hats were a hot commodity, for sure.
Are you able to share which hat this was?
I dont want to incriminate anyone in the greatWhite Lotushat theft.
What happens in Thailand stays in Thailand.
