costume designer Terry Dresbach tells EW.
You get to do something completely new.
We all ran to those miniskirts like it was a life raft.
Aimee Spinks/Starz
It was a blast.
I also haveVogueandHarpers Bazaarfrom the 1960s.
That wouldnt have worked for an academic and his wife in Boston.
Jason Bell/Starz
These are real people.
Dresbach even relied on her mothers fashion sense from back in the day when designing costumes for Claire.
Claires bathrobe is something my mom had!
Starz
There are just a lot of personal moments in there.
It was interesting to make these people look ordinary.
Not an easy feat, confesses Dresbach.
Theres a blouse and a skirt that Cait wears with a bow on it.
I found something very similar in a Montgomery Ward catalog.
Montgomery Ward was not high fashion by any stretch of anybodys imagination.
But I put it on Caitriona and it became the latest Dolce & Gabbana.
It was like, Wait a minute, how did you make that look so good?
