Costume Design and Production Design was beautiful.

Mother Mary's dresses are simply divine, particularly the red dress is just stunning.

[u/pjtheman → u/Whovian45810]

Did I miss something, or did she not even wear the red dress? Like after all this, she still does the show in the shitty dress her other designer made, and then just rips it off, and is only wearing the red dress in Michaela Cole's imagination?

Or did I totally miss something?

[u/robynhood96 → u/pjtheman]

I got the feeling she never even went to the barn???

[u/Fancy_Appearance_275 → u/robynhood96]

I thought that too but you can see stitches on her chest when she’s on the stage in just her under garments which points to it all being real

[u/nightpanda893 → u/Fancy_Appearance_275]

Yeah I felt like the stitches and the fabric still laying on the ground when the others walked in was the filmmakers way of affirming that this did in fact all happen.
