Over 700 Costumes Were Created for the "Bridgerton" Season 2 Main Cast

Fans of "Bridgerton" are getting another season full of romance and drama, with all the Regency-era costumes that go along with it. Season two of the hit Shondaland series promises the same elaborate dresses, headpieces, and jewels that spawned the regencycore trend that's dominated the fashion world. Only this time, it's delivered with even more color. While season one costume designer Ellen Mirojnick did not return to the wardrobe team, Sophie Canale, also known for her work on "Kingsman: The Secret Service" and "X-Men: First Class," was there from the start and picked up where Mirojnick left off. This season, she and her team created approximately 700 costumes for the main characters alone. A whopping 146 of those were used in the first episode.

"For me, the beauty of design is always in the attention to detail," Canale said of her craft in a Shondaland article. "I feel the audience will see this in the cut of the costumes, embroidery, embellishment, hats, reticules [Regency bags], matching jewelry sets for costumes, men's watch fobs, tiepins - the list goes on."

Indeed, Canale was meticulous about incorporating specific accessories that speak to the wearer's personality. For example, Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley) arrives on the scene and becomes the new love interest to Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey), who is looking for a wife. Through her wardrobe - like her smart top hat and jewel-toned color palette - we see her strength and sincerity reflected.

In total, viewers will get to enjoy four different ball scenes this season, all of which followed a theme and coordinated throughout, from the set design to the ensemble wardrobe and the main characters' outfits. Watch closely during these key moments to see how the costumes complement and enhance the story. It's clear that Canale's careful costume planning paid off - ahead, dive into the first-released stills from the show and learn about the inspiration behind the looks.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...

Katy Perry Takes Inspiration From "Kill Bill" in Yellow Moto Jacket and Low-Rise Jeans

Katy Perry is making the press rounds ahead of the upcoming season of "American Idol." On March 28, the competition judge and singer was spotted leaving "Good Morning America" in casual, off-duty street style that turned heads. She wore distressed, low-rise R13 Denim jeans that sat at her hips, as well as a white baby tee under a cropped leather Balenciaga jacket . With its thick black stripes running down the sleeves, the yellow race jacket was reminiscent of Uma Thurman 's iconic tracksuit in "Kill Bill." Wearing an assortment of rings on each of her left fingers, Perry also carried a yellow coffee cup with her other hand to match her jacket. As for the rest of her cool outfit, which was curated by stylist Tatiana Waterford , pointed black heels peeked out from the floor-length denim and sporty cat-eye sunglasses shielded the singer's eyes. The edgy ensemble was one of three outfits she wore on Tuesday. Perry arrived on the morning-show set ...
