New money is more fun money was the mantra guiding costume designer Kirston Leigh Mann onApple TV+ comedy seriesLoot.
Mann envisioned Molly as an important client in the fashion world.
Mollys one of those very elite people.

Mollys 45th-birthday outfit had to be as extravagant as the festivities themselves.
Its so stark and cold, Mann says of the $141 million Bel Air palacewhereLootis filmed.
Maya warms it up.
I wish I could take credit for that car, she says.
But some style choices are just happy accidents.

Molly wears silk pajamas around her chilly compound, a nod to Manns at-home style.
Its like Mister Rogers, who always had to put on his sweater when he came in from outside.
Its a chance to change.
Manns favorite set is a pair of Sleepers mint-green crepe de chine pjs with detachable ostrich-feather cuffs.
We can all throw away our gray sweatpants and take a page from Mollys book.
Molly looks amazing in it, but its the wrong look, Mann says.
Molly hasnt yet come around to dressing the part of somebody who understands this city.
Shes still coming in a little too fabulous.
Mayas never trying to hide.
Its also Manns favorite look of the season.
The label also made the purple palm-leaf caftan Rudolph wears in theLoots opening shot: Its such a vibe.
(Lets just say it was a lot.)
This fabulous gown cost less than $1,000 and ended up being one of their biggest saves.
Throughout the ten-episode series, Mann used big-name designers for the more important moments.
Mayas not label conscious.
She only cares about how it looks and is so willing to help young and up-and-coming designers.
The thought of staining the fabulous zipped faille mini was almost too much for Mann to bear.
To be safe, Mann tracked down ten versions of the dress, no easy task during the pandemic.
Hes so fashionable himself that he had his eye on our dresses.
But we were prepared to literally get slammed.
