One of my favorite parts of Penelope’s season 3 wardrobe is that her dresses actually fit her body now. Just because the era had a high waistline doesn’t mean her dresses had to only have a few inches of fabric above to waistline. She’s a big lady so she needs more fabric. Her season 1 dresses especially were more per-portioned to someone of Daphne or Eloise’s build. Now, her dresses are per-portioned properly, with the waistline hitting fashionably just under her bust instead of way too high! As a big lady myself, it’s awesome to see Pen in clothes that fit her well!

This was on purpose! Partly because in the books it is said that the Featherintons wear ill fitting clothes, and also to hide her bust which would've made her look older in the first season specially (where she is 16-18). It helps with the visual transition from young girl to womanhood

I think that’s because the costume department didn’t do enough research and did know another way to make her look “frumpy” and younger. Regardless, in real life the bustling would have sat correctly.

😂 The idea that Nicola Coughlan, and I've seen this mentioned repeatedly (in both positive and negative ways) is considered a big lady is hilarious to me. She's 5' 1" and she is a size 10 in clothes (UK 10, US 6).

I'll never get over the fact that they made her look 14 in the first season... like that's crazy considering she is in her 30's

In the show I thought she was in her mid to late 20's or early 30's. Nicola doesn't look to be 37.

That's because she is supposed to be young in season 1 acc to the book

She learns about how to compliment herself, rather than complimenting others

Penelope's vixen/baddie era was too shortlived 🙄😮‍💨

Honestly, I wish at least one of her ball moments with Lord Debling had her in another jewel tone like Sapphire, deep purple, or even Burgandy

Such a good actress and so pretty. I’m glad they’re giving her a more natural look as she is naturally very lovely.

The sky blue and emerald colours look incredible on her

Every time I saw Penn I felt like I couldn't breathe. I was like set my girl freeeeee !!

I feel like I just had my natural curl pattern roasted lol

Definitely not! In tv/film, these stylistic choices help decode the passage of time or how are character is feeling. It’s a mechanism to further tell the story, which is what I’m explaining. Definitely not a “roast” of anyone’s natural hair. :)

I know what you mean. I feel like natural tight ringlets look wild and free and uninhibited. Hers did seem to be put up very structured, but just letting the ringlets down where they can bounce and be free would have been a beautiful, confident, sexy look. Didn't have to "uncurl" them for a glow-up.

yes because the curls were not natural :)) her hair was styled by the maids before and after. I don't see any offense in going for a more relaxed curl that suited her better

Agree with all of this, love to see it. Though I kind of enjoyed her ringlets too. Mostly in season 1, but some of her season 2 looks were cute.

She looked stunning and I’m here for the Glow up!!!

Polin has been my favorite since the beginning!

Yes I did notice! I love Nicola and I think she’s so beautiful, ever since Derry girls

She’s stunning

Why are characters in more makeup this season? Like strip lashes, full foundation and pen’s acrylic nails??!

​@LylyHec it's a regency based romance show, the makeup and hair are not supposed to be modern. Even sexworkers at that time wouldn't have worn all of that

I love how Bridgerton embraces all kind of women’s beauty, shape, sizes, races, colors, etc. that’s exactly the world we should be live in. Because each woman is beautiful on its own and not by some ,,society” standard of beauty. I hope we can see this more and more because it’s truly important and we lacked this in society norms for far too long.

She is the prettiest girl in bridgerton. She literally looks like an angel

are you serious

literally fav character in Bridgeton along with El

Haven't watched this show but she is so pretty❤

I'm not sure it's a glow up, but more they glowed her down before...

I also had the feeling that she wore blue more often than yellow etc maybe as a sign that she would become a Bridgerton soon

I don’t think her curls are going to go away tho. She switched up her style but I can’t foresee her getting rid of her curls for the sake of a glowup

And from the moment she gets engaged to Colin she starts wearing the Signature™ Bridgerton blue and other softer pastels, when the Featherington trademark was more of a bright colors, patterned, overwhelming style.

YESSSS THANK U I THOUGHT NO ONE ELSE NOTICED

Her clothes also fit her now and the colors compliment her, like her mother wanted her to wear citrus colors because they if her mother so most likely also her (even if Penelope takes after her mom by personality she may have more of her dad's skin complications) and because the family is new money her mom thinks they need to wear colors that will notice the daughters more (even if most families wear more light blues and other light colors)

her phase one was her rebelling by being herself and her phase two was her being herself simply to be herself.

"I get gout over..." I did such a double take❤

Well I guess just imagine waking up and heading to your job as a hair and make up artist and you walk into the trailer on set, you place your things down and head to the morning meeting next to the break room and have a conversation with the director, the historian researchers and other stylists that were brought in, all to determine each characters style and look. Do that everyday for a few months or years and yes.....lots of thoughts and many details would pile into every frame of that film.

Yoo the tension is toooo much 😭 i felt so bad for Aldo at some point

Interesting point, and very true. :) But I think that is actually fairly normal with people glowing up. At first, they may go a bit over the top/extra bold, to counter how plain they felt before. And as they learn what fits them better, they find a happy medium, and learn what makes them look the best.

Great analysis! Just wish we could have done it with Regency Era accurate styles. The mess that was the lack of even attempting to be historically accurate for the main characters was very distracting even for someone who doesn’t know specific fashion history but just has an idea. If the show had followed the books it would be more understandable why the fashion and hair changed so much as it takes place when Penelope is 26 and not still in her seasons. This season gave me mixed feelings but historical accuracy aside, they did Penelope’s glow up rather well.

En la vida soy Penélope

9:44 agreed - the red lip was sooo on the nose for that empowerment scene. They can do something more original aesthetically. There's something about that emerald green too that felt like pen was playing dress up to me.

Her glow up is sooo greatly done and even the dresses she wore are stunning the only little thing that bothered me was that she put on too many pastel blue or green to the point sometimes it was hard to notice if it’s the same dress she’s wearing all along

Her hair is inspired by one of Jessica Rabbits hair looks

How do you get your hair so lovely and shiny please? 🙏🏻

Whoever is behind this edit I absolutely FREAKING LOVE YOU!!! 😘🥹☺️. This is really incredible please donations one when part 2 comes out 🫶🏼.

And don’t forget LASHES

She was also heavier.

Bridgertons downfall started from season 2,

So you are against curly hair, i don't like your point

its not only hair its lip filler and veneers and weightloss

I love her glowup but as someone with super curly/coily hair it kind of sucks when the glowup includes the hair becoming less curly like its childish or unattractive to have tight curls

Jessica Rabbit 100%

She didn’t go through any glow-ups 😂😂

.....can't wait for the messy hair after spending time with Mr.Bridgerton. 🤭🤭🤭

Hair changes more and more from natural state but is “more authentic…” okay.

As a fan of the série , I’am utterly shocked at the free fall in quality, season 3 is very underwhelming and I weight my words…

Im not up to date with the episodes but so far im not happy that she has had a glow up... we ask women to not feel pressured to look like everyone else... so penelope is being made to lose what made her quirky in order to get the man (it seems so far) 😂 I wouldnt mind so much if every oher message wasnt so obvious with this show

Grow up.

Season 3 is the worst for me. Poorly done and all over the place. Not enough focus on the main couple and their story was abysmally rushed. Pen and Collin were both insufferable to me, their love confessions were just overly sweet gibberish cringe and collin didn't even standout as a main guy. Forced "gay/open relationships" crap on benedict that doesnt exist in the books for the sake of just shoving the lgbtq agenda and it was done in a tactless way AND not to mention changing Francesca's husband's cousin from a Michael to a Michaela, who she's supposed to love after her husband's death to completely obliterate the book and frans infertility struggle just to create another cringey forced lgbtq trope 😐. Shitty reunion of Lady Danbury and her brother after years of hating each other solved in under 3 minutes with a stupid apology, not to mention the random rl of her brother with violet BRUH. the uncovering of lady whistledown was SO lackluster and the queen just brushes it off that quickly after 3 gruesome seasons of trying to uncover her identity. I can keep on going about how much it literally sucked and if it stays like that.. yikes. I hope we keep up the energy of the previous seasons. 😐

Umm no.
