Oh, yes. Brava, sweetie. This is something Michelle Dockery and Caitriona Balfe learned pretty quickly. If you get a lot of first-time attention for portraying the more or less lead female (for this first season at least) in a period romance/melodrama, a smart young actress knows she best get herself out in front of people wearing the least romantic or period-looking clothes she can snag. In other words, it’s time to go hard and modern. Miss Phoebe, fresh off the success of Bridgerton’s first season, has learned the lesson:

We don’t know if she, her team, or the folks at Dior picked this ensemble, but we think it’s a great bit of branding for her as an actress. We’re not inclined to love the leather … semi-pinafore?

We spent the first 8 years of our fashion commenting career yelling at boystars for their puddling pants and now that we’ve single-handedly solved that crisis, the girlstars are gonna do it? Please. We’re begging you. Our children are hungry and our crops are failing. Don’t do this.
