The Reason Mabel Wears Marigold in Only Murders in the Building

It would be hard to steal a scene from legends like Steve Martin and Martin Short, unless, of course, you're Selena Gomez's perfectly fuzzy coat in Hulu's "Only Murders in the Building." The show is back with season two plus a bundle of increasingly significant outerwear - and costumes in general - curated by Dana Covarrubias.

"This is no longer a show about murders in a building . . . this is a show about COATS!"

The series introduces new characters, who step onto the scene and end up influencing Mabel's (Gomez) wardrobe. Alice (played by Cara Delevingne), for one, opens Mabel's eyes to the art world and encourages her to tap into her creative side in bold, splashy patterns. When they meet, Mabel is wearing a tangerine Nanushka dress, a sheer watercolor print trench by Dries Van Noten, and knee-high boots from By Far that, according to an email exchange with Covarrubias, were put together to make her look like a painting. Covarrubias said that Gomez loved wearing the '70s vintage, silver sequined "disco ball dress" that was a new silhouette for Mabel, and, as expected, her lineup of vibrant, textured coats.

"In season two, we had an inside joke amongst the costume department crew that this is no longer a show about murders in a building . . . this is a show about COATS!" Covarrubias said. "The coat is an essential element to any detective's look. Each of our main characters has an iconic coat and a special relationship to their coat." Mabel, whose coat is her armor and a way to protect herself from the outside world, wears jackets sourced from The RealReal, The Outnet, Farfetch, local NYC thrift shops like Beacon's Closet, Bloomingdale's, and Saks Fifth Avenue.

Ahead, you can uncover even more secrets about the careful intention behind Mabel's outfits, color palette, and jewelry - and learn where you can shop her signature gold hoops and layered necklaces that have made their way from season one to season two.

The Boob-Window Trend Is All Over the Red Carpet From Sydney Sweeney to Chlöe

The boob window is the new trend in celebrity dressing making waves this year, both on and off the red carpet. As early as January, in fact, Lori Harvey stepped out to celebrate her 26th birthday in the LBD version of the look, flaunting an asymmetrical midi from The Attico with a chest cutout that circled her cleavage, and was further amplified by an attention-grabbing neck-tie sash. The outfits that follow often resemble halter silhouettes, although not all of these numbers boast a strap on each side. Sydney Sweeney is the latest style icon to give it a go, opting for a brown silk gown that she wore alongside model Izabel Goulart while vacationing in Ibiza. For a night out, the 25-year-old " Euphoria " star rocked her one-shoulder design with gold jewelry, dewy makeup, and her bright blonde hair in loose waves. The bodice of her dress was secured near her collar bone, where fabric from one side was pulled through a loop at the other, wrapping around to the back. The r...

Candice Huffine: "Size Does Not Equal Health, and Weight Does Not Equal Worth"

Image Source: Luvlette Born in Washington DC and raised in a Maryland suburb, Candice Huffine did a little bit of everything when she was growing up, from being captain of the cheerleading squad to taking her turn as a pageant queen. "It was 'typical' in a Hallmark movie kind of way, I guess," Huffine tells POPSUGAR. "These details are important to mention because they did influence my life path. I willingly put myself on a stage at every turn - and not always kind ones - to do the things I loved or to follow a dream I had." Huffine, 39, signed her first modeling contract in 2000. She was "determined" to be a model, despite the fashion industry being notoriously discriminatory toward plus-size people. Knowing the odds were stacked against her propelled Huffine even further toward realizing her dream. "When I received a contract as a plus-size model, it unlocked a new mission in me: to not pursue modeling just for myself, but to push har...
