In an early episode of “Love and Death,” Candy Montgomery (Elizabeth Olsen) goes shopping and tries on a fitted navy blue dress with red trim. It’s stylish, modern (for 1978) and perhaps not the first outfit you might call to mind when picturing a churchgoing housewife in a bucolic Dallas suburb in the late ’70s.
“My experience when designing costumes, especially when you’re working in a smaller town environment is that the fashion is a little bit behind because if you’re in New York, it’s like the fashion is coming in quickly. … Even in Dallas, there would be a more fashion-forward look, but I feel like in this smaller environment, everything is a little behind,” costume designer Audrey Fisher tells Gold Derby (watch the exclusive video interview above). “That also allowed Candy and Sherry (Krysten Ritter) to be sort of the most interesting and cute, fashion-wise.

Fisher designed over a hundred costumes for Candy; here are a handful of examples that track the character’s transformation throughout the show.
