Miniskirt Murder & Fashion Forensics

Several years back, I was glued to the screen for the fun and fashionable cast of characters of Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries. It wasn't until a recent visit to the library, where a colorful DVD cover caught my eye, that I learned the creators had made a spin off! 

The show sticks to the script of a lady private detective and eye-catching period piece; but this time we're following Phryne's niece, Peregrine Fisher, in 1960's Melbourne. As I mentioned in this post, the pacing drags a bit in Season 1, but her wardrobe and spunky personality were a big enough hook for me. Plus, the show is backed by a mostly female creative and production team which helps authenticate the various feminist topics covered throughout the season. But to be honest, I mostly watch for the fashions and Geraldine Hakewill. 

And my absolute favorite look -- the purple plaid pantsuit!
