That is such a good question.

And I haven't gotten to really talk about this.

In my mind, Andre Leon Talley and Karl Lagerfeld and numerous people wear a uniform.

It's true.

It's easy.

You are recognizable as the icon that you are.

And it's a uniform.

It's great.

So in the beginning, early in the pre-production, I thought, I think Miranda should continue her pencil skirts and her short crop bolero jackets.

It looked great on her in the first movie.

So all of that was shopped.

that kind of silhouette that's just clean and streamlined.

Well, we stuck our toe in the first fitting with Meryl and it was not working.

Even though it was modern designers, it looked dated.

It wasn't fresh.

We weren't bringing anything new to the picture.

And this was my thought process, which luckily for me, Meryl is one of those people who wants to experiment.

does not mind trying on an idea until we find it.

She thought, yeah, let's give a pencil skirt a chance again.

So it was just luck that there was a skirt and a blazer there, a sport coat, that had a totally different feel from everything we were trying on.
