Shonda Rhimes has done it again, and her latest hit series was released on Christmas Day 2020. The new period drama is called Bridgerton, and it’s based on the classic hit, Gossip Girl, but with a more Regency-era. If you’re a fan of the show, chances are that you’re also interested in the frocks that the females wear, which are now making a comeback in fashion.
Bridgerton Makes Frocks Fashionable Again
The frocks that are worn in Bridgerton oftentimes have cinched bodices along with puffed sleeves. Many of them also have embellishments and soft color tones. Ellen Mirojnick was the face behind the costume direction, and her vision was a celebration of an ultra-feminine fashion in an old-school era. This includes bows, bells, lace, and more.
Many people might feel inspired by the costumes in Bridgerton, and they’re in luck. These frocks and dresses are coming back, and it might be time to add one or two to your wardrobe.
