Dress #1-White

I have a theory about the costuming for the Evil Queen. In the episode "Fruit of the Poisonous Tree," we see a transition in the Queen's personality. She goes from being plus of an innocent person, even a victim, to creating an evil plot. As her personality changes, so does her choices in clothing. She goes from a white dress, to a light blue dress, to a dark blue dress. In the episode "A cœur, coeur is a Lonely Hunter," the huntsman asks if she is still is in morning and she replies, "The time of morning is over, I simply find that black suites me." It seems as though she literally "wears her emotions on her sleeves."

Dress #2-Light Blue

bby11us I was just thinking about that! I don't know if it was intentional on the costume department's part, but if so, I give them major kudos. It's such an interesting and subtle, but not quite, way to see this change in her power.

zanhar1 I noticed that too lol. This actually does happen a lot with characters. I know this one; Isabella Gisborne from robin hood. She goes from good to evil with a similar outfit style.

meow-cat What a lovely theory, I think that this must be right :) Never thought about it though, thanks for sharing :D

Alchemistlover Yeah i think it's awesome how they showed Regina's personality change through her wardrobe.
