One of the new shows we started covering last year was Liv & Maddie from the Disney channel. Dove Cameron plays both of the lead characters, Liv & Maddie, who are twins that are almost the complete opposite from each other. Although Liv has a more preppy style and Maddie drifts more towards a tomboy style, both of them have great clothing throughout the season.
I’ve spoken to the Costume Designer of the Genevieve Tyrrell (@genevievetyr) who was happy to answer a few questions supplied both by the ShopYourTV team and our viewers across our social media platforms. Get a closer look at how working with the lovely Dove Cameron is and inside information of what brands were sourced for the show.
ShopYourTV: What would Maddie’s staple pieces be?
GT: Maddie: Nordstrom, Paige denim, Wild Fox, Nike sky high dunks, Topshop
ShopYourTV: Is there any input from Dove or any of the other actors on what they get to wear on the show?
GT: Dove and I have worked very closely on concept for her character. She likes to think of Liv as being a French girl, very girlie with her wedge Mary Janes & lacy socks.
ShopYourTV: Will Liv or Maddie’s style evolve in the second season?
GT: I’m not designing itShopYourTV: What is your favorite part of working on Liv & Maddie?
GT: I love the shows creators, the writers and my amazing cast! Our department enjoys pulling it together each week & watching it come to life!
ShopYourTV: How does Liv & Maddie compare to other costuming jobs you’ve had?
GT: It’s completely different than other television shows I’ve designed. We tape once a few days a week and spend the rest of the time prepping for the next episodes. There’s a lot of laughter. It has a wonderful vibe day in & day out.
