I’ll watch for sure!
Thank you so much! You will see my roller coaster of feelings for the costume from the last year!
Costume Co rules I 💖 this channel.
Ah, thanks so much!
That green dress will go down in history as one of the most iconic costumes from the game of thrones universe.
I think you are correct!
That green dress is everything
that emerald green dress was stunning on alicent, it almost made me turn from team black to team green 😁
Did you see our livestream? #teamgreen
@@Costume_CO only a bit honestly i cant sit through 1 hour, rather than 3 i honestly dont know how you do it
I know, it's too long! Okay, I mentioned that I was on Alicent's side in this epi but I might change my mind when they do the time jump.
@@Costume_CO I am still hoping that they will put a little sence in older rhaenyra, a bit of wisdom, teen rhaenyra was a bit childish and entitled. I want her moment to shine 😁
Alicent's wedding dress looked awesome! AND HER CROWN!!! Where did THAT come from?! I don't hate it at all, but I thought her crown would look more similar to Viserys's. Oh, what we were snubbed of!! Would've loved to have seen that dress in action!
My top 5 Rhaenyra costumes are
1- Fabulous overcoat
2- Hunting outfit
3- Wedding dress
4- Dragon riding outfit
5- Red brocade dress during her walk with Laenor
Hi Tatiana, I found that picture on Twitter.
I think Cersei loves Alicent and idolizes her. She did whatever she could to get her son on the throne.
Ne more Rhaenyra with her three STRONG boy's
I've been waiting for this video haha, I think older Rhaenyra's costumes are going to be much more in tune with a Targaryen stately woman, for it. Now she realizes she really has to go toe to toe with the queen, ironically the next episode title is The Princess and the Queen, And there was a scene they showed that is from the episode, (I won't talk about it due to spoilers) But it shows Rhaenyra In a very natural, vulnerable state and all we could get is the striking resemblance of Aemma her mother. It was almost eerie the resemblance.
Oh, yes, looking forward to next week. I saw that teaser with Rhaeneyra and Laneor with the new babe.
@@Costume_CO ohh that Alicent... Not the sweet girl she was anymore 🙈😂
And honestly, I absolutely love and look forward to your videos after every episode and the live stream as well.. both are very informative and quite interesting to take a different point of view regarding fashion and how it represents certain Easter eggs other than the norm... But the GOT universe has always been good with that as far as telling a whole other story through costume and clothing.
@@jay_ooh Thank you so much and for your kind words. ❤️
I will never get over the fact that they cut Alicents wedding. Firstly, the costume looks amazing. But the scene would also serve as this great symbolic difference between her and Rhaenyra, former best friends, now rivals. Alicent has a perfect pristine wedding, but is in a loveless marriage of duty. Rhaenyra has a disaster of a wedding with literal blood pooled on the floor while she says her vows, but ends up in a friendly arrangement that suits all parties, if not the wider society and the royal court 😄
Hi Alex, I would have been very happy to have all of season one with the young cast and filled in those 10 years. But that's just me. Thanks so much for commenting!
@@Costume_CO haha agreed, this season could have been two full ones with the amount of time skipped. Love your content! look forward to all of the costumes you will talk about!!
Ok but the detail between Laenor and Joffrey tho. Im not crying, you are!
❤️
I really liked Rhea Royce’s armor, but Daemon looked slightly ridiculous in that floppy hooded robe. Would love to see the leather jacket he wore to the wedding in better light, it looked gorgeous. As always, thanks again for the photos and explanations.
Hi Leslie in the livestream we were teasing that Daemon looked kind of like Assasins Creed there.
I feel so conflicted about the costumes in this show so far. Some of them are truly stunning and really add new dimensions to the world and story while others feel very out of place for me, even though they are beautiful. It's mostly the female characters and it might be because of what you talked about in the video about the undergarments. Some of the dresses fit in a way that looks very modern and the impression I get creeps into Reign-territory. It feels like modern day women in costumes. I've mostly felt like that about Rhaenyra's dresses and how they fit. I loved the overgown though!
Love your insights (as always)
Ah, thank you so much!
That was such a great catch with the alligences being hinted at in clothing, the tower. I loved your reaction to them not being sure if people would notice she wore green. 'Cause I mean, wow. I am so in love with those split sleeves. I also feel so stupid for not realizing they were dressed in opposite colors. Though Joff would have also be in "white" and "Black" which also are the two colors for death. Maybe I'm over reaching there. I love the idea of Alicent's hair being a crown. Wasn't that also a greek trend that you sound in their hair before? THe riding levels were GREAT and it looks so great. I admit I wasn't really loving Rhaenyra's wedding look. :/
Thanks Reflective!
Why don't people like Rhae's dress during the wedding?
It looked Targaryen, while also sassy and dragon-like, but proper for a pre-marriage ceremony banquet.
I loved her wig. It was over-the-top, but I mean... that's the point. Nobles tend to wear outlandish garments to upstage one another.
Hi reckless, it's all about personal preferences. I loved Margaery Tyrell's wedding gown for instance but I have had many viewers who told me that they hated it.
Hi. I think the costumes are wonderful! My fav is the wedding set of the Korlys. Thanks for the video :)
Wow, that was quick! Thank you for commenting. :)
I like the costumes more and more but I still think many of the pieces the ladies wear would benefit so much from proper undergarnments. I always catch myself thinking how would´ve this or that looked with proper undergarnments.
I like the men´s costumes way better.
Hi Aysun! Yeah, some of those background ladies look pancaked in their dresses.
@@Costume_CO I noticed.
Loved the episode! Favourite costume was either Rhaenys', Rhea Royce and Laena at Driftmark (WOW the details!). Least faves were Laena and Rhaenyra's wedding dresses, the sleeveless white dress looked out of context with everyone else and the ruffles on Laena were just strange ala Margery Tyrrell's tube dress lol.
The men's costumes are all just amazing.
I laughed when Daemon walked in to the big formal event wearing basically flashy leather armour/riding clothes, showing just how seriously he doesn't take the wedding compared to everyone else.
Hi Minty, thanks so much for commenting as always! I talked about Laena's ruffles in another video. I think it would have been alot prettier without it and I agree that her outfit at Driftmark was really lovely. I have mixed feelings about Rhaenyras wedding dress. I like the fabric but some of Rhaenyra's silhouettes have not worked for me (although I like her dragon/horse riding outfits)
@@Costume_CO I really liked the scaley/dragonskin effect of the wedding dress material (I wonder if it's the same fabric as Alicent's blue dress?). It would have looked more appropriate with some sleeves maybe like her red tour dress in my opinion. I feel sad we never got to see an actual wedding day dress!
I agree. I think the costumes were the best and the most consistent this episode, as well. Some of the women still needed support undergarments for the tight bodices they wore, but Alicent didn’t suffer for that in that green gown. How interesting to know it was made up of three different green fabrics.
I also totally did NOT get that Laenor and Joffrey were mirroring each other in their hair and wardrobe. Once you pointed it out, I was slapping my forehead and saying, “How did I not see that?!” But, I guess what makes it very skillful is that it probably did register with me on an unconscious level.
I actually didn’t like Rhaenys’ riding outfit. I get that she wouldn’t wear fancy leathers when she’s out riding; I just wish she’d had on darker or, perhaps, deeper colors. I feel like those tans and caramels washed her out, especially with the silver wig, which I also don’t like. I think hers, Laena’s and Laenor’s are probably the worst on the show. Corlys’ wig actually looks believable. I’ve seen men with grey dreads like his, although not all white. Thankfully, the clip for the next episode shows an older Laenor and his hair looks much better. It’s also pulled back, which helps.
So disappointed they ruined Laena's brocade dress with that ruffled edge on the bodice, it looks like an 80s prom dress!
Well, I mentioned that in a previous video. Kept things pretty light and airy for this reaction. 😀
@@Costume_CO I'm sorry, I don't want to bring things down! I'll check out the earlier video
Oh no, not all all. I have done some major nitpicking on many aspects of the show in other videos.
Where did u find those great high quality pictures of the costumes?
Hi Derek, I found the show pictures here: www.farfarawaysite.com/section/housedragon/gallery1/gallery.htm
I love your videos, I was hoping you might be watching The Serpent Queen on Starz, they have some beautiful outfits I would love to hear your thoughts on
Hi Lacy. one of my other viewers recommended it. I will try to check it out.
@@Costume_CO Tywin is in it, in case you needed a push! Thoroughly enjoyed his character in it.
TY!
Wat did Daemon Targaryen wear to the wedding feast?
It was a sort of armored doublet with trousers.
Why were most Rhaenyra's costumes bad when she was younger including her hair? There was at least two or three of her costumes I liked, but never liked her hair. I thought after being named heir to the throne she would be better dressed.
Hi Rikki, I'm not sure. I did a video talking about the silhouettes and the lack of proper foundation garments contributing to the problem. I do like a few of her outfits but I think Alicent's are much better. As princess, Rhaenyra should have the better dresses.
@@Costume_CO Yeah everyone's costumes are better than hers for some strange reason (except for the clothes Alicent wore before her green dresses and the Kingsguard armor), but maybe the show will give her better costumes now that we have switch to the other version of Rhaenyra I hope.
It’s not episode 4
Sorry! Got the name right though.
Book spoilers? Oh sad, that way I cannot watch this. I love your viedeos but I dont want to be spoiled, I really want the surprise element while watching HOTD
Hi Luis, it's a very mild one but I totally get it if you want to wait.
Rhaenyra's bridal outfit looks an absolute mess when comparing her ensemble side-by-side with Alicent's gown. I've been quite disappointed with most of the costumes - the exceptions are the men's costumes. The men look fantastic - the women look jumbled and only Alicent seems to have a consistent style and source of inspiration.
Thanks Mellow English Gal, I agree whole heartedly.
I think the show leans a little amateurish. I would love a touch of reality but the show got too woke for a brutal world with serious themes the politics don’t seem complex and tricky, the romance is somewhat taboo but can be a little sweet so that’s nice wish they went all for it no reason to hold back, but it’s lacking sooo much on the dialog! It’s all so plain! It feels cheap and dumb, where are the twists and turns? Is going so slow too. I need more cause it could be great.
Hi Hazel, I can't speak to this so much. Just doing the costumes in this video.
@@Costume_CO o agree with everything so I just had to criticize something else lol I’ll still be watching tho cause I’m a hopeless sucker that still has hope
How is this show too woke from any angle 😂😂😂
Don't know what show you've been watching! Too woke!?? LOL.
