Gilmore Girls costume designer Brenda Maben asked Lisa Whiting and her design partner Lucia (a huge GG fan) to make some signature knit pieces for the denizens of Stars Hollow upon their return to the small screen.
While Lisa and Lucia pictured Lorelai “Rory” Gilmore — her mother’s eponymously titled creation — wearing this, it somehow makes sense that a garment originally inspired by the fantasy of a gender-bent Hugh Hefner would ultimately end up around Paris Geller’s neck. Now, yours too!
