I love hating Margery's final look. Costumes shouldn't just be pretty they should help further the story. It's fitting with the religious fundemantalism that's taking over the capital that she should wear something shapeless and plain.
I think that Cersei wears black because she is in mourning and is dead inside, at least that's what Michele Clapton said. Why do you think Margaery wears grey?
Margaery is one of my favorite chatacter, she's kinder than Cersei but more cunning than Sansa. I love her outfits, she had a lot of variety of gowns in the show. It's so sad to see her die, I'm gonna miss her on the show, ofcourse Natalie Dormer. Winter is here!
I loved loved LOVED the transition from her revealing dresses to the conservative ones she wore after her imprisonment. I also noticed she covered up immediately once she achieved her goal of becoming queen. I just learned of your channel and I'm subscribing immediately.
I also thought because Tommen was younger and sweeter than Jeoff. She could play with Jeoff desire, but perhaps Tommen was mora like a child (at least until the wedding night) and she needed to aproach a more subtle path to him. Being a queen on the street and a Tyrell on the sheets
There's one scene I love between Marg and Cersei where Cersei threatens her because she called her sister but the ladies around her are wearing Marg style looks to show her influence
People are like, "Oh, you like Game of Thrones? Watch House of Cards." But I'm like, "Half of the reason I watch it is for the clothes and hair... haha XD
e batdorf House of Cards has great costumers, particularly on Claire Underwood. Many of the more important events in the show often rely on her picking an appropriate dress or look to emphasise a point or accommodate the events. Honestly, the costumes are important in GoT but House of Cards is sophisticated chic and cold.
+larlarinlalaland Haha! I know. Michele Clapton is a bit quirky, so perhaps this is how she looks at it. I think she was trying to squeeze in a tribute to Alexander McQueen and it kind of fell flat.
I think Margaery's final look, reminiscent of Cersei's final gown was spot on. Margaery was shrewd and knew to trump Cersei she'd have to dress the part. I say "Well Done." It's not her "look," but she knows it. She dressed down to go along with the deception of her changed world view in "The Light of the Seven," and almost pulled off this ruse.
Of course! I cosplay, and most of my cosplays are sewn by me. I love it, even if embroidery is going to kill me one day. Like, someone will ask me, "Mari, did your cat bite you?" Me: No, needles are just trying to assassinate me.
I LOVED the "funel" dress! I thought "finally, something different, something edgy!" It went perfectly with her character. And that scene.. "-Do you want to be a queen? - No, I want to be the queen."
Yeah, I think Natalie Dormer was a true sport about that. I think Michele Clapton did get some flack about it and then tried to justify it - I'm not sure why.
I've always loved Margery's final dress it's not entirely her but it makes her look classy and grown like a contrast from the cunning lady she was free to be before her imprisonment. I imagine thats what she would wear if she was queen for a longer time or when winter came
Lovely video! I can't wait to watch your other ones! I love love love Margaery and I loved how her style transitions. She was so clever in how she dresses, showing off her youth to spite Cersei and the cheeky little cut outs that were sexy to seduce Joffrey. The switch to more modest clothing after the wedding showed how calculate it all was. And the rose motif was so great, sometimes blatant sometimes subtle but it was clear she was a Tyrell first and foremost regardless of who she was married to.
She shared Anne's desire to be queen and she knew how to play the seductress but that's really as far as it goes. Anne seemed to have anger issues that she had trouble concealing, but Margaery portrayed a image of kindness. The people loved Margaery; they hated Anne.
To add to opinion of the last few costumes, they became high collared and closed off to symbolise people preparing for winter. It shows that the climate is becoming colder and the political climates requires more careful preparation. Furthermore the 'nun'-like gown mimics the style of the of religious folk which also mimics the style in the North at Winterfell in the first season. Showing that these costumes are connected to the relationships immediately surrounding the characters and the relationship to the world as a whole.
I´m following your channel like any other series: popcorn, cat on the lap and comfy sofá. Truly enjoyable video, thank you for taking the time and effort to research all this :D
I think Sansa, Dany, and Margaery wear the most beautiful costumes. I adore your videos and all the information you give on the different fabrics, patterns, etc. I'd love to get your opinion and expertise on the costumes of Magnificent Century and Magnificent Century Kosem. They're Turkish historical fiction dramas full of gorgeous costumes for both women and men. Great video as always! I'm looking forward to more of your House of the Dragon videos!
@@Costume_CO I think it's available on Netflix and here on CZcams, but it'd probably be a good idea to ask around. I've been watching the free clips here on CZcams, but the translation from Turkish to English can be a bit rough.
I'm watching all your videos now, you've got a fan for life ! ❣I love hearing about all the symbolism of the embroidery work, its extraordinary❣The metalwork & the care that was taken w/ every piece❣I love hearing about all the inspiration for their costumes also❣ Thank~you again!❣
Fantastic! I wish I had found these videos when they were new! I loved Margaery's dresses and had recently been looking around for a photo album that might feature all the detail on them, and other costumes designed for GoT. So lovely! Looking forward to seeing more of these! Sansa will be next!!
As far as I know from my little experience in costume design, one of the more practical reasons for the distinct colors for the Capulets and Montagues is so that the audience always has an easy method of delineating who belongs on which side. As for more symbolic reasons, I'm not the most versed. Otherwise, a very interesting video. I just found your channel and I already find it to be incredibly interesting. Since I'm planning on going into costume design, your in-depth analysis on the construction and the reasoning behind them is incredibly valuable to me. Keep up the good work!
+Matthew Bradley I don't know if there is any symbolism, and like you said, it just makes it easy to tell them apart. I think the same goes for GOTs. With the colours, you sort of know what region you're in. Now that we're in season 7 however and everyone is coming together, the palette is more homogenous. Thank you so much for commenting. I always love hearing from aspiring costumers.
I really enjoyed this video. I thought your costume analysis was very thural. Margery is one of my favorite characters on GOT. I especially admire her costumes.
I thought Marjorie was one of the most interesting characters on the show, I loved the Tyrell family and was so sad when their storyline ended... her costumes were always so fun and stunning... except for that burrito dress hahahaha
I actually loved the funnel dress. Especially as in those scenes it was extremely cold. It was kind of sexy Margery meets winter on the battlefield dress. It’s a battle dress.
This video was awesome, I'm so excited to start binge watching this channel!!! Thank you thank you thank you. I would love to see one of Anne Boleyn (Natalie Dormer) in the Tudors, or the Tudors series in general as they reuse a lot of outfits and it'd be super interesting to hear what is and isn't accurate, or who you think wore costumes reused best. Thank you again.
I actually like Margaery's funnel dress and my sister does too, but I know it's not her best. Besides her first wedding dress, my favorite dresses of hers is probably the gold one after she gets married to Tommen because it's clearly a "screw you" to Cersei, since it's like Cersei's dresses but with the revealing neckline. She only wears it once but I love it. My third favorite is her Winds of Winter dress.
Cristina Bojorquez Thank you so much! I have an episode coming out in the next day and then I can work on the Dany episode hopefully have it out in January!
Really enjoy your videos and analyses :) As for suggestions, it'd be nice if you edit out the voice-over mistakes - although I'd watch your videos, regardless
I was wondering if Margaery's character is inspired by Elizabeth (Lizzie) of York. Because in The White Queen, she said "So whatever happens in the battle, I will be queen" If richard Wins she'll be queen and if Henry wins she's bethroated to him. Catherine can be also the inspiration Of Margaery's character. She's been married to Arthur, after his sudden death, she been married to Henry, Arthur's younger brother. Just like Margaery marrying Tommen after Joffrey died.
Oh, I'm sure George RR Martin was inspired by many historical figures including Elizabeth of York. We know that he used the Wars of the Roses and the Hundred Years War for the basis of GOTs. I was just speculating that I thought that Anne Neville matched up quite nicely. I haven't seen the series yet but I intend to watch it. :)
Rome Blanchard I'm pretty sure she, or at least the Tyrells, were inspired by Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon. Henry VIII family sigil/badge was a Tudor rose, almost the exact same as the Tyrell. When he and Catherine were married they combined the rose with Catherine's family sigil/badge the pomegranate in a very similar way to Magaerys crown.
Is there one for Joffrey? I think that'd be really interesting, I forgot how flamboyant his style was through the series until I rewatched recently. :)
This is a really interesting video! I just feel the production could improve, like audio recording and editing out mistakes in speech, but that’ll come with time! Thank you for all the research you put into this!
Of her final, faux modest look, I actually kind of love the very last. Though, that's probably because I think the fabric is beautiful. RIP House Tyrell
Hi Darian, Yeah, her final two looks have grown on me and I like them more now. I just checked and realised that it was just over a year ago that I did this video. Cheers, Heidi.
Hi Alonna, I'm a bit behind because of the holidays, but I should have one out soon. I'm going to aim to have a Daenerys costume breakdown in the new year.
Love it!!!! Especially in explaining the backstory behind the design choices and the contrast to Cersei. Would you be open to analyzing costumes of the Henry VIII wives in The Tudors? It'd be great to cover Anne Boleyn :) But I'm especially interested in the costumes for Catherine of Aragon who looked sumptuous.
Do you know how much outfits like Margaery's wedding dress would cost like if you were to have them made? With the same level of craftsmanship of course.
+John Tembo Hey John, I'm not sure. On the show, Michele said it was the most expensive costume they've ever made, although she didn't say the cost. There are Etsy sellers that do this sort of thing, you could check it out there.
REALLY love these videos! Please, what happens to all the costumes & jewelry after the character leaves the show, or no longer wears It? Will there be a G.O.T. costume museum or something? They're too beautiful & costly to dispose of or break down.
Hi Pamela, My understanding is that in the first season - before they knew that the show would be a hit - many of the costumes got taken apart and recycled into newer costumes. Now, all of the costumes are catalogued and stored. Many of the costumes, jewelry, and weapons travel and are exhibited in various tours. They is a new tour planned that is starting in Madrid, but there have been no announcements made when it will be going next. Once the show wraps after season 8, they might auction off the costumes, but I suspect they will keep the principal costumes for years to come.
Costume CO THANKS SO MUCH FOR ANSWERING MY QUESTION!!!!!💜 It would be a shame to waste it all, after all the work & detail. The way you break it down, brings it to life, on the show, one only gets a glimpse & cannot appreciate all the thought that went into it all! Ty again!
+Pamela Alsop My pleasure. I think they have learned since Lord of the Rings the importance of preserving these pieces so that everyone can enjoy them for years to come.
I really love the idea of these videos and I think the analysis is spot on! plus I learn a lot everytime I watch =). but you trip over your words fairly frequently, which is distracting. maybe you could try a couple takes of each point and practice saying them out loud a few times first, just so everything sounds smooth?
I'd be really interested to see the several dozen fabrics and embroidery materials on Daenerys's costumes broken down. The use of texture on her costumes is stunning!
Melody Utter,I have a video planned for Daenerys. In the mean time, you can check out the fabulous handy-work by embroidery artist Michele Carragher: michelecarragherembroidery.com/Daenerys-Dragonscale-Gallery(2880136).htm
The video is great but you missed one costume. It is a light grey dress with gold embellishments that Margaery wore during Tommen's coronation in season 4.
Which dress Elsa? It's a very hard thing, because depending on the lighting it looks different, but her dress from Sansa's wedding is a soft blue background (on the bodice) with gold embroidery.
Thank you for the video :) very impressive analysis. I'm just commenting because of the effort you said you put in as I thought it might be helpful - I find the voice over a little distracting when you stumble (as everyone does), so maybe just quickly re-record those parts? Otherwise great video.
+luhole Thank you for the feedback! I have tried to make improvements on the sound quality and my delivery. I hope you find my more recent videos satisfactory.
No worries! Thank you for taking it as constructive feedback and not criticism, because like I said it is a great video. I will be sure to check out your more recent ones! Congrats on an awesome channel and all your hard work :)
Hello, have you done a video on favorite and least favorite costumes for the TV show The Tudors? I've never been a fan of what Natalie wears in this show. I honestly didn't like anything from the Tyrell's closet.
Hi Frozen, I don't have a background in hair/wigs but if I learn anything, I will certainly include it in an upcoming video. Thanks so much for commenting!
Hi Robert, I fixed the video on the Costumes of Crimson Peak, but I I had to take down the old video to make it so. Here is the new link: czcams.com/video/kvqb-UzBG04/video.html
I really love your studies of the costumes, I truly enjoy them, but here are my few problems with your quality of the videos: why does the audio sound so poorly in several parts of the video?? And also, sometimes I wonder if you even watch GOT, because of the way you butcher the pronunciation of names and phrases like "valar morghulis" (Also why don't you cut out your little slips of tongue? they're not so bad, but unfortunately distract from you great content!) This is no hate, I just think when the quality of your videos gets better we could enjoy them even more! :)
Although I haven't watched Game of Thrones myself I certainly know a fair amount about it. I too use clothing to express myself considerably. I actually have friends who can with reasonable accuracy identify what I'm feeling based solely upon what I am wearing.
Look I like the content - it's great. But if you make a mistake just do another take.... it sounds like you're really struggling to get through a script
I was so sad when her character got killed off! I love all her costumes :)
Me too! They've really raised the stakes now.
"Looks like a human burrito"😂😂😂
Haha! Yes that's what my husband calls it.
I died😂😂😂😂😂
I love hating Margery's final look. Costumes shouldn't just be pretty they should help further the story. It's fitting with the religious fundemantalism that's taking over the capital that she should wear something shapeless and plain.
Absolutely! Very good point.
There's something else... The fact Cersei was dressed in black and Margaery "only" in grey was pretty symbolic to my mind.
I think that Cersei wears black because she is in mourning and is dead inside, at least that's what Michele Clapton said. Why do you think Margaery wears grey?
Because for once, she was one step behind Cersei. There's like a graduation, see? But it's my own interpretation.
I love your interpretation. :)
Margaery is one of my favorite chatacter, she's kinder than Cersei but more cunning than Sansa. I love her outfits, she had a lot of variety of gowns in the show. It's so sad to see her die, I'm gonna miss her on the show, ofcourse Natalie Dormer. Winter is here!
Me too! The season finale was pretty shocking.
I loved loved LOVED the transition from her revealing dresses to the conservative ones she wore after her imprisonment. I also noticed she covered up immediately once she achieved her goal of becoming queen. I just learned of your channel and I'm subscribing immediately.
Yes! Michele Clapton said that once she became Queen, that she didn't need to show her skin anymore.
+Sedd Thank you for your comment!
I also thought because Tommen was younger and sweeter than Jeoff. She could play with Jeoff desire, but perhaps Tommen was mora like a child (at least until the wedding night) and she needed to aproach a more subtle path to him. Being a queen on the street and a Tyrell on the sheets
Im so glad someone has finally addressed the funnel dress! a burrito would be a perfect description! Me and my boyfriend always make fun of it.
+Bella MacTavish Haha! Yeah, it didn't quite fit into the design.
There's one scene I love between Marg and Cersei where Cersei threatens her because she called her sister but the ladies around her are wearing Marg style looks to show her influence
+From House Starkgaryen Yes, I love that scene. I cover that in my Q & A if you want to check it out.
Costume Cinematografico Aw will do. I'm new to your channel but I really like it so I'm subbed!!
+From House Starkgaryen That's awesome!

Many of the more important events in the show often rely on her picking an appropriate dress or look to emphasise a point or accommodate the events. Honestly, the costumes are important in GoT but House of Cards is sophisticated chic and cold.
I love how the defense on the burrito dress is that Margaery is a teenager trying things out, like we girls all go through a funnelneck stage lol
+larlarinlalaland Haha! I know. Michele Clapton is a bit quirky, so perhaps this is how she looks at it. I think she was trying to squeeze in a tribute to Alexander McQueen and it kind of fell flat.

That human burrito dress is her most ICONIC look tho😂
I would so love a costume breakdown for the 60s Romeo and Juliet!
That's one of my favourite movies of all time. I'll see if I can find some info out - it's a bit harder with older movies.
@@Costume_CO I bet! Another couple of favorites are Anne of The Thousand Days and The Lion In Winter. But, again. 60s lol
I've seen them both are superb!
I've always wanted to be a costume designer since I was about 9. These videos have helped me understand how costumes carry the story along. Thank you!
+Mad Hatter Art, Music, and Games My pleasure! Are you still planning on pursuing it?
Of course! I cosplay, and most of my cosplays are sewn by me. I love it, even if embroidery is going to kill me one day. Like, someone will ask me, "Mari, did your cat bite you?"
Me: No, needles are just trying to assassinate me.
Would you be willing to share some of your sketches/cosplay? I can feature them in an upcoming video. You can email me at: heidi(at)heidiloney(dot)com
I checked out your channel!
Costume Cinematografico Of course! It might be a while though.
Oh, & that wedding dress, that was a piece of artwork!
I LOVED the "funel" dress! I thought "finally, something different, something edgy!" It went perfectly with her character. And that scene.. "-Do you want to be a queen? - No, I want to be the queen."
I agree with you about Natalie Dormer's dress looking like a burrito. I didn't know if anyone else disliked it too. It looked awkard to wear.
Yeah, I think Natalie Dormer was a true sport about that. I think Michele Clapton did get some flack about it and then tried to justify it - I'm not sure why.
I've always loved Margery's final dress it's not entirely her but it makes her look classy and grown like a contrast from the cunning lady she was free to be before her imprisonment. I imagine thats what she would wear if she was queen for a longer time or when winter came

+standincub Thank you!
I LOVE her wedding dress !!
+mmmm me too!
Honestly, i think it would make a wedding a dress or red carpet dress today and would be amazing !!
her costumes really are the best!!!
I always thought Margaery was based more on Anne Boleyn.
+Anna Gonzales Could be.
Anna Gonzales umm i could be wrong but got is based on the war of roses and anne boleyn came after the war of roses :/
Oh I know. It was more of a personal observation than me trying to be snarky.
I can see the Anne Neville and Anne Boleyn comparisons. I think GRRM is a magpie with history and jumbled up history to make a new 'history'
She shared Anne's desire to be queen and she knew how to play the seductress but that's really as far as it goes. Anne seemed to have anger issues that she had trouble concealing, but Margaery portrayed a image of kindness. The people loved Margaery; they hated Anne.
I love Margaery's dress when she confronted Tommen about her brother's imprisonment. Such a powerful yet elegant and beautiful dress!
Which one is that again?

the new year.
Costume Cinematografico thank you so much for messaging me back 😄and I can't wait to see your video I hope you have a happy holiday☺☺☺
Alonna Favors Happy holidays to you!
Love it!!!! Especially in explaining the backstory behind the design choices and the contrast to Cersei. Would you be open to analyzing costumes of the Henry VIII wives in The Tudors? It'd be great to cover Anne Boleyn :) But I'm especially interested in the costumes for Catherine of Aragon who looked sumptuous.
Hi there, thank you for your comments! I'd definitely be open to do the Tudors. I haven't seen it yet but i can put it on my watch list. :)
I would also love to see a break down of Dormer's costumes in Tudors. They are absolutely stunning!
could you do anna karenina with keira knightley please? the costumes in the film are gorgeous! :)
I think I've had a request for that already. I'll add it to my list. :)
Do you know how much outfits like Margaery's wedding dress would cost like if you were to have them made? With the same level of craftsmanship of course.
+John Tembo Hey John, I'm not sure. On the show, Michele said it was the most expensive costume they've ever made, although she didn't say the cost. There are Etsy sellers that do this sort of thing, you could check it out there.
Costume Cinematografico Thank you so much.
+John Tembo My pleasure!
Wonderful analysis- perhaps you can make some analysis of costumes from fantasy movies? Lord of the rings would've been great for that ^_^
+Gulien Ithilmir Okay, I will get to it, but I will most likely need a collaborator as it would be an enormous undertaking to do it properly.
REALLY love these videos! Please, what happens to all the costumes & jewelry after the character leaves the show, or no longer wears It? Will there be a G.O.T. costume museum or something? They're too beautiful & costly to dispose of or break down.
Hi Pamela, My understanding is that in the first season - before they knew that the show would be a hit - many of the costumes got taken apart and recycled into newer costumes. Now, all of the costumes are catalogued and stored. Many of the costumes, jewelry, and weapons travel and are exhibited in various tours. They is a new tour planned that is starting in Madrid, but there have been no announcements made when it will be going next.
Once the show wraps after season 8, they might auction off the costumes, but I suspect they will keep the principal costumes for years to come.
Costume CO THANKS SO MUCH FOR ANSWERING MY QUESTION!!!!!💜 It would be a shame to waste it all, after all the work & detail. The way you break it down, brings it to life, on the show, one only gets a glimpse & cannot appreciate all the thought that went into it all! Ty again!
+Pamela Alsop My pleasure. I think they have learned since Lord of the Rings the importance of preserving these pieces so that everyone can enjoy them for years to come.
Such a good video ! I immediately subscribed :)
Thank you so much!
I really love the idea of these videos and I think the analysis is spot on! plus I learn a lot everytime I watch =). but you trip over your words fairly frequently, which is distracting. maybe you could try a couple takes of each point and practice saying them out loud a few times first, just so everything sounds smooth?
+Rhojosor Atthar Chomokh That was an earlier vid with poor sound when I was learning the record. Hopefully later records are more satisfactory.
Great video! Please do one on Daenerys as well
Thanks Peggy. I am working on one for Daenerys!
I'd be really interested to see the several dozen fabrics and embroidery materials on Daenerys's costumes broken down. The use of texture on her costumes is stunning!
Melody Utter,I have a video planned for Daenerys. In the mean time, you can check out the fabulous handy-work by embroidery artist Michele Carragher: michelecarragherembroidery.com/Daenerys-Dragonscale-Gallery(2880136).htm
can you please do a video about dorne customs??
+Vivian Khoury Yes, I have one coming out in the next week.
Costume Cinematografico thank youu
+Vivian Khoury This coming Monday, I hope.
Costume Cinematografico thank you!

The video is great but you missed one costume. It is a light grey dress with gold embellishments that Margaery wore during Tommen's coronation in season 4.
You're right! I thought it was the same one she wore in the exterior scenes, but upon closer inspection it's a lighter fabric.
Margery's s3 dress is it blue and black or white and gold
Which dress Elsa? It's a very hard thing, because depending on the lighting it looks different, but her dress from Sansa's wedding is a soft blue background (on the bodice) with gold embroidery.
Her hair was a wig this whole time? Daaaaang, that's one dame good wig!
Yes, they're made from human hair and very expensive. 😁
Costume starts are 3:01
Thank you for the video :) very impressive analysis. I'm just commenting because of the effort you said you put in as I thought it might be helpful - I find the voice over a little distracting when you stumble (as everyone does), so maybe just quickly re-record those parts? Otherwise great video.
+luhole Thank you for the feedback! I have tried to make improvements on the sound quality and my delivery. I hope you find my more recent videos satisfactory.
No worries! Thank you for taking it as constructive feedback and not criticism, because like I said it is a great video. I will be sure to check out your more recent ones! Congrats on an awesome channel and all your hard work :)
Hello, have you done a video on favorite and least favorite costumes for the TV show The Tudors?
I've never been a fan of what Natalie wears in this show. I honestly didn't like anything from the Tyrell's closet.
No I haven't done the Tudors yet. Still have it on the back burner. 😁
Thank you, great one! ☀️
Views today, 18 February 2019, is 77,365 🎶🎈🎉🍹👏
can you do a hair review of rhaenyra??
Hi Frozen, I don't have a background in hair/wigs but if I learn anything, I will certainly include it in an upcoming video. Thanks so much for commenting!
PLEASE DO CRIMSON PEAK!
Hey Robert, I have that on my to-be-watched list. :)
Hi Robert, I fixed the video on the Costumes of Crimson Peak, but I I had to take down the old video to make it so. Here is the new link: czcams.com/video/kvqb-UzBG04/video.html
Goodness me, I hope you've upgraded your mic since making this video.
😂 Yes, and I redid this video if that helps.
you prononce costume like Edie Bouvier in grey Grey Gardens "coshtume"
Gregorie Vincent Haha! I know, it's weird. The closed captioning can't pick up what I'm saying. I will blame my French Canadian mother. :)
By far the most beautiful female costumes from GoT are Margaerys. Sansa has some amazing ones but Margaerys are by far top notch 💕!
Anne Neville x Richard lll for life!
I really love your studies of the costumes, I truly enjoy them, but here are my few problems with your quality of the videos: why does the audio sound so poorly in several parts of the video?? And also, sometimes I wonder if you even watch GOT, because of the way you butcher the pronunciation of names and phrases like "valar morghulis" (Also why don't you cut out your little slips of tongue? they're not so bad, but unfortunately distract from you great content!)
This is no hate, I just think when the quality of your videos gets better we could enjoy them even more! :)
Old Days, SC. Here's an update: czcams.com/video/7XmRbDZUNDQ/video.html
That burrito dress is one of the worst. Thank God they didn’t let Margaery wore that again.
Yes, it's lucky it was just for that one scene. I wonder if it will go on tour though? It will need it's own booth I think. :)
Although I haven't watched Game of Thrones myself I certainly know a fair amount about it. I too use clothing to express myself considerably. I actually have friends who can with reasonable accuracy identify what I'm feeling based solely upon what I am wearing.
Tbh I hated all of Margaery's costumes. It felt like no thought was put into any of them.
Hey Natalie, I'm working on a project of GOTs costumes and I was really surprised how close 5 of the costumes are to one another. 😁
Whoop whoop I'm from Wales #WelshPride
+morgimoo_tomlinsonxox Hello Wales!
Costume Cinematografico lol it's just cause u mentioned Wales we are a very proud country
😄😄😄
Look I like the content - it's great. But if you make a mistake just do another take.... it sounds like you're really struggling to get through a script
Hey Last Time, thanks for the feedback. This video is a bit old, I now do multiple takes. 😁
I didn't like how the funnel dress looked. But I felt like it told us a lot about who Margaery was, which is the point.
It's 'Tie-rell' not 'tu-rell'.
It's either way.
Ma'am, I truly appreciate the in-depth analysis but you are pronouncing so many things incorrectly
Haha, yes, well this is an old video. 🤣
Its hard to listen with your deep gasps, loss of air. I
