    some discussion on GG subreddit say she was going to quit the show if she couldn’t dress this way. she just put her personal branding above a show which considering how often shows like that lock people in a niche forever was pretty smart

    Cassie's style was heavily influenced and inspired by Hannah Murray's own style. I remember back in the day she said that she somewhat regrets giving Cassie her "personal appearance", as it felt like she lost the license to her own style when Cassie gained it, or her own outfits became a costume or character wardrobe. Maybe she feels different today, seeing how just much authenticity and life it gives Cassie.

    In the oc, lead actress Mischa Barton who was a “Chanel girl” of her day had a large influence of her character and wanted her to wear designer. She is quoted saying- “I started getting Chanel to send stuff. I started having these designers send stuff over because I saw the merit in getting that kind of stuff on television. It was interesting: If I had those connections in the fashion world, why not? [The wardrobe department] would totally have been happy just dressing us as regular teenagers, to be honest. Not in a bad way, we would have looked adorable, but we would have been just your average Orange County teenagers. But with my wiling and conniving I was like, 'You know what would be super great is if we could get this Chanel dress for this [prom] episode,' and it kind of all came together.” But the handbags were mostly fakes.

    Hi Katie! Just wanted to say I found your channel yesterday and immediately subscribed and started binging your videos. Also, you inspired me to finally go check out the vintage clothing store near my house that I’ve been meaning to check out for literally 3 years. I found some really great pieces (including a little blue ruffled cardigan that ties at the neck that I’d usually never try cause I like my cardigans to be knee-length, but was inspired by ur cream and pink ones that were kinda similar, and I ended up loving it!). I’m very happy right now!! Thank u for inspiring me!
