↳ Galavant, Season 1 Episode 8 “It’s All In The Executions”

Make me choose: Anonymous asked Moulin Rouge! or Romeo + Juliet?

I have investigated many crimes. But this has altered the shape of my soul. I am detective Hercule Poirot and I will deliver your killer.

“I’m not marrying Fred.”

“I heard about that.”

“And you are under no obligation to say anything, or do anything…I just didn’t love him as I should.  So we don’t need to talk about it.  We don’t need to say anything -”

Laurie catches her face with his hands, and kisses her.  She looks at him and kisses him back. They embrace with both their joy and their grief.  This is the way it was meant.  It is done.

“I really love the straight line of an off-the-shoulder-look on Adelaide,” says Markworth-Pollack of Kane. The Los Angeles-based designer sourced the gold-embroidered burgundy brocade from a furniture upholstery store because, she explains, “more often than not, they have bigger quantities in stock than the fashion fabric stores.” With approximately 12 yards of fabric in hand—and with a team of six seamstresses and designers—she created the dress in just two weeks.

Mary’s gown includes an exaggerated train. “I wanted something that really went above and beyond anything we’ve seen Mary wear before,” says Markworth-Pollack, who cites photos of British Queen Victoria at her 1838 coronation as royal inspiration. But before diving into the design process, the costumer needed assurance that the train would be given the royal treatment. “The director promised that if we built it, she would shoot it, which I find is not always the case,” she says. “You end up putting a lot of labor into something that because of the nature of TV, you don’t always get to see the full effect of.”

The ornate gown worn by Kane called for equally extravagant jewelry, and these oxidized, gold-plated Swarovski crystal chandelier earrings from designer Vicki Sarge were ideal. “I actually bought them from the [online retailer] The Outnet previously and they were so gorgeous I was holding off for a special moment to use them,” says Markworth-Pollack of the $214.00 earrings. And no coronation scene would be complete with the all-important crown, which she purchased from vendor Courtly Charm on e-commerce website Etsy.
