Lucy Hale Gives Us the Most Stylish TV Character With Katy Keene

Lucy Hale in "Katy Keene"

Archie Comics aficionados weren’t the only ones excited when The CW announced they’re working on an adaptation of Katy Keene. So were fashion enthusiasts who always loved the character’s flawless style, and Lucy Hale’s new series certainly delivered on the fashion front.

The Pretty Little Liars star isn’t the only one who should get the credit for Katy’s awesome fashion choices. She worked closely with costume designer Jenn Rogien, who used the original comics as a blueprint for each amazing outfit we got to see on the show.

Rogien describes Katy’s style as “very fashion-forward” and “sophisticated”, but she wanted to give us more than heart-printed red dresses this character is known for. Fuchsia and crimson are still her go-to shades, but she found a way to make them look more mature.

Katy Keene’s costumes will probably become even more epic over time because creators Michael Grassi and Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa want to eventually invite fans to design their own.

Part of the reason why she was so stylish in the comics was the fact that the readers often submitted and got credited for their original designs, and showrunners are hoping to do the same with its TV adaptation.
