Last night, the endlessly impressive Jane the Virgin writers pulled off one of the more difficult moves in television—effectively incorporating a super-famous guest star. Britney Spears‘ visit to the Marbella was pitch-perfect, featuring both a fun dream-sequence dance number with Gina Rodriguez and a *hilarious* feud between her and Rogelio. They didn’t hold back on the Britney puns (“The situation had become toxic. This circus couldn’t go on. It was time to get to work, bitch.”) but they also did not hold back the story.
Britney fit flawlessly into the JTV world in every way, including of course, her fabulously over-the-top outfits. Don’t try to shop for them though—three out of four of Britney’s looks last night were custom designed and created by Jane the Virgin Costume Designer Rachel Sage Kunin. I caught up with her to ask about the Britney episode, dressing the Villanueva women, and Rachel’s own path to success (which happens to working on the infamous Lindsay Lohan Lifetime disaster, I Know Who Killed Me).
KM: I know Britney is a big fan of the show, so did she (or her team) come in with some ideas about what her style should be within the Jane the Virgin world?
RSK: I showed Britney and her team my sketches and they loved everything from the get go. Once we got into the fitting room together we had fun collaborating on the finishing touches.
