The lavish production required more than one thousand costumes and up to forty hairstyles for each of the leading ladies.
The madder red and gold print gown Justine Waddell (Molly Gibson) wears walking with Roger at The Towers is the same gown worn by Lynda Bellingham (Mrs. Lupin) at the inn in Martin Chuzzlewit (1994), and by Emma Pierson (Fanny Dorrit) wears to visit the Gowans in Venice in Little Dorrit (2008).
The gold v-neckline gown with brown trim worn by a guest at the Easter Ball is the same costume Susannah Harker (Jane Bennet) wears at the Meryton Assembly Ball in Pride and Prejudice (1995), and Samantha Bond (Mrs. Weston) wears when Emma sings with Frank at Randalls in Emma (1996).
The dot-patterned beige muslin day dress with puffy sleeves Barbara Flynn wears at the Towers in the opening scene is the same costume Joanna David (Mrs. Gardiner) wears at the Inn at Lambton in Pride and Prejudice (1995), Greta Scacchi (Mrs. Weston) wears at Randalls in Emma (1996), and Georgia King (Pet Meagles) wears on the wharf in Little Dorrit (2008).
The plum-colored caped coat and matching hat Barbara Leigh-Hunt (Lady Cumnor) wears to visit the Gibsons is the same costume Claire Skinner (Fanny Dashwood) wears to travel to Norland in Sense & Sensibility (2008). The hat is also worn in Byron (2003) by an extra at the London party where Byron meets Annabella Milbanke.
