THE BOLD, THE YOUNG, AND THE MURDERED
Some more in-depth background on select characters from the show: The Bold, The Young, and The Murdered.
Synopsis: The long-running soap opera The Bold and the Young is in its last days: its hunky hero has self-esteem issues, its villainous old man is more interested in soup, and its heroines are slightly psychopathic. The executive producer gives the squabbling cast an ultimatum: Complete one episode overnight or the show dies. But when the director ends up murdered, and other cast members start dropping like flies, it seems like his threat might actually come true. Can these misfits discover the murderer before the show is literally killed off?

I envisioned her in a tank top and cargo jacket, which are comfortable and practical, and match the duller color pallet incorporated throughout the crew. However, I also envisioned her in dress pants and classical director accessories like her hat and scarf to highlight her higher position and dedication to the show and add pops of color that allow her to stick out from the rest of the crew.

Dressed in a baby doll dress and pearls, Danielle's costume balances both her snotty, spoiled on character on the soap opera while still highlighting innocent, naive out-of-character persona.
CYBIL
An aging actress, Cybil is a somewhat out of touch, disoriented old Hollywood star. Her slew of somewhat formal yet mismatched pieces highlight her disorientation and confusion.
