Tuesday, May 19 2009


Lulu in Tibi. (Soaps.com)
In the last wardrobe article, Soaps.com reader Wren asked some good questions regarding the usage of the characters’ clothes once they are done with them. This week, aside from more great questions about where certain pieces can be purchased, Carrie C. had a follow up question for GH’s Head of Wardrobe Mary Iannelli regarding her answer to Wren’s question.

Read on for more!

Allyson B, Bridget M & LC C: Where is the top from that Elizabeth wore on Thursday, April 30 and May 4? It's green with cap sleeves and ruffles around the neck and down the front.

A: Elizabeth's cute green ruffle front top is by Theory.

Janequa W, Charity B & Rachel D: Where did Lulu get that green dress in the episode dated April 29 2009?

A: Lulu's butterfly print green dress was by Tibi.

Judy R: Who is the designer of the red cardigan worn by Maxie on April 24th and 27th? It was short sleeved and had a flower on the left side of the sweater.

A: Maxie's cute floral cardigan was actually a raspberry color cashmere by Lulu Lame.

Donna G, Donna G & Nadine M: Who is the designer of the red wrap dress that Maxie wore on Wed 4/29 episode?

A: Maxie's red wrap dress was by Diane Von Furstenberg.

Toni M: Could you please tell me the brand of the leather jacket, jeans and shirt Sam wore on May 1st?

A: Sam's jeans were a grey-blue denim low-rise cut by Paige Denim. Her jacket was a black leather by Doma. Her t-shirt was a black on black polka dot v-neck by Morphine Generation.

Kristin H: During the week of April 27 Robin wore a printed tiered cami with a blue cardigan. Who is the cami & cardigan by & where did you purchase them?

A: Robin's cardigan was by Vince from Nieman Marcus. Her blue apple print blouse was by Liefs Dottir from Anthropologie.

Kristin H: During the week of April 20 Carly wore a white cami, with a bluish henly-like t-shirt over it & a great looking pair of jeans. Can you tell me who that complete outfit is by & where you purchased it?

A: The henly and tank that Carly wore were actually connected together it was made by Theory her jeans were by Paige Denim.

Karen M: Who designed and where can the bluish v-neck dress Olivia wore on May 4 be purchased?

A: Olivia's dress was by BCBG.

Linda: Can you tell me where the necklaces Rebecca Shaw wore were purchased? They were two short silver & one longer lariat necklace.

A: Rebecca's necklace came from Nordstrom.

Hilary R: Who makes (and/or where I can get) the pretty navy blue trench coat that Elizabeth wears on GH? It has 3/4 length sleeves (Belled) and full skirt. I think she was wearing this on May 1st and 4th.

A: Elizabeth's cute navy trench was from Nordstrom; it was made by Plastic Island.

Ladjenka S: Can you tell me where to get the purple ruffled off-the-shoulder top that Maxie was wearing on May 6th?

A: Maxie's top was a silk top by Rebecca Taylor.

Carrie G: The wardrobe person said that once a piece airs (if it is not a basic piece) they sell it at a consignment store. But I am wondering how come the character of Tracy wears the same outfits over and over again. The teal jacket she was wearing on 5/6 episode she has been wearing for the past 4 years or more. Are there certain jackets/blouses they use over and over again. Or are the actors that aren't on screen that often ones who recycle wardrobe?

A: Most of Tracy's wardrobe is custom built, very high-end designer (like Armani and Lagerfeld), or are very classic so we do re-use many of her pieces. Her costumes tend to be expensive and most of them are timeless. I should re-phrase that and say that it is the super trendy pieces we get rid of and pieces that someone may have worn in a car accident or fight and should have been destroyed.

Wren M: On May 6, Tracy had on a teal blue jacket with upturned collar. I'd love to know the maker and where it was purchased.

A: Tracy's jacket was a silk jacket by Ellen Tracy.

Jessica O: I am trying to find out where I can get a dress that Lulu wore earlier this year. It is black, but the neck, hemline, arms, & pockets are all outlined in either blue/teal/turquoise. The neckline has multi-colored square (mirrored) sequins. It has two pockets on the front, and a half-belt on the back. It is also sleeveless. It is so cute.

A: Lulu's dress was by Nanette Lepore.

Teresa D: I absolutely loved the dress Lulu was wearing on the May 6th episode. Is it possible for someone to let me know where I can find it?

A: Lulu's dress was another one by Nanette Lepore.

I like that we see the characters in the same clothes sometimes, espeically things like coats. It's a little more realistic, and it just makes sense that a character might have a favorite piece of clothing.

One of the running jokes when we watch is that there is an endless supply of coats (and purses for the women) on GH for every character but Mike Corbin. Poor Mike has been wearing the same three shirts and one coat forever.

Around May 13th, the episode where lulu and maxie find out that Kate is the cause of the magazines leak. can you tell me where the tan/brown ruffle top or sweater came from? Lulu or Maxie was wearing this when Kate said she was going to fire them both.

Thanks!

I really like Carly's white wrap around shirt today. Anybody know what label it is? It had pockets on the front and wrapped around. The show was on today June 22. Thanks

To ruthieGHF,

Hi, I believe the designer is Diane Von Furstenberg Stern Safari Top. If you notice GH uses alot of her designs, Nanette LePore, and Theory. I pretty much am watching these days because of the fashion. Good luck on your search.
P.S. Saks has this top on sale now!!
