Golda Rosheuvel in Miss Sohee
This is gorgeous. The dress underneath is... whatever, but that's fine, because it's beside the point. Maybe something less prone to crinkle, but who's even looking?
Ruth Gemmill
Ma Bridgerton also looks glam and fantastic. It's in the vein of Priyanka's dress from earlier today, so little shock that I'm into it.
Okay, I went back and got this because I decided I was sad we couldn't see more of Rosheuvel's embroidery, so here's a slightly clearer angle. That's Julia Quinn, the author, between them; I don't think this is based on anything she wrote, other than the original IP, but there IS a Young Violet Bridgerton story that she wrote along the line so maybe they borrowed from that, too.
India Amarteifio in Sabina Bilenko
Ooh, that detail looks like little crustacean legs and it's giving me the creeps. And this is another one -- of a recent streak -- where the train really only adds an element of logistical danger.
Arsema Thomas
Here is Young Lady Danbury (her counterpart did not attend). It looks like an ode to sutures.
Connie Jenkins-Greig
Connie is the Young Violet of the show. Her ljppy is superb, but the outfit itself falls flat.
Sarah-Jane Crawford
I can't decide if I like this -- I bet it was fun in motion -- or if it looks like a tutu reclamation project.
Corey Mylchreest
The men of this premiere were really hot for beige. We have Corey...
Sam Clemmett
... and Sam, both hewing to the same palette. Thankfully the ladies brought the color.
Freddie Dennis, Sam Clemmett, Arsema Thomas, Golda Rosheuvel, Tom Verica, Shonda Rhimes, India Ria Amarteifio, Corey Mylchreest, Ruth Gemmell, Hugh Sachs and Julia Quinn
And here's the whole gang that came! Shonda is front and center, as she should be, because she wrote most of the episodes. I also love the purple suit on Hugh Sachs. Now THAT'S how you make an impact, Khaki Gents. Freddie Dennis also at least tried something. He looks like if Duran Duran were the court musicians of the era.
