Picspam: The Fashion of Dana Scully, part the Two

[bibliodragon]

The first season of the X Files introduced us to many things: the appeal of angsty paranoids and sarcastic doctors, amazing cell phone coverage and Vancouver pine forests. But sadly, high fashion was not one of those things. A shiny new second season was at hand, but still no wardrobe budget in sight. What is an FBI agent to do?



And Scully is not off to a good start, with the giant coat of pregnancy hiding putting in a strong appearance.


Giant coat of pregnancy hiding.


Another giant coat of pregnancy hiding, though this one meant she got to take part in the plot and save Mulder's ass. Again.


Giant coat of pregnancy hiding.


Mulder in a Speedo. Krycek approves!


Mixing things up with a icky corpse of pregnancy hiding.

Then Scully is saved from the ignominy of giant coats by Duane Barry. And you all thought he was just kidnapping her.


But she returns in some lovely coma ware.


And the night gown of coma dreams and impressive postpartum breasts, and I am wincing in sympathy. Good God people, she just gave birth for crying out loud, get the poor woman a pillow or something!


But at least now it is bye bye giant coat and back to those powersuits. Hooray!


Oh wait, the powersuits.


But there is also some variety, with action Scully...


...Vancouver weather enjoying Scully...


...elephant autopsy Scully...


... though cute dorky at home Scully is adorable, and it comes with bonus giant 90s phone.


And casual sweats Scully.


But unfortunately such variety took its toll on the make up department. Do not despair Scully, a decent wardrobe budget is only a few seasons away!

It ought to be a federal crime to dress that woman so terribly! Yet she does somehow manage to transcend the horror. We hates her, Precious!

She does have the magical powers of overcoming horrible fashions, it must be tied in with her power to run in high heels.

Argh, this is so wonderful, I lolled so hard. What you speak is the Truth.

And that white coat of pregnancy hiding in the supermarket, before she gets abducted - it's so gigantic. My friends and I always laughed about that.

Are you going to do the next seasons? Pretty please with a cheery on top!

[bibliodragon.livejournal.com]

She didn't really get abducted, she just got lost in that coat.

Lol, though once the budget improves it'll become a bit harder to find the awful stuff. Then again, having to dig through lots of Scully caps is a punishment I will just have to put up with ;).

She didn't really get abducted, she just got lost in that coat.

LOLOLOLOL!!! And when they couldn't find her, they just blamed Duane Barry right?

[bibliodragon.livejournal.com]

He was just the coat's patsy! Poor Duane Barry!

I LOVE THE FASHION.

POWER SUITS. yes. how dare you question that sense of style.

[bibliodragon.livejournal.com]

They are going to kill me with their shoulder pads for daring to mock!

[contrition.livejournal.com]

Every time I rewatch, I marvel over how she makes EVERYTHING she wears look so darn good when, well... there were some outfits that were questionable, at best.

My mom and I always used to LOL At the coma nightgown!

[bibliodragon.livejournal.com]

The woman is magic, it has to be that.

And that coma nightgown, oh God the frills!

[the-popsicle.livejournal.com]

lol this is so funny i get so distracted in the first 3 seasons with the bad hair and awful 80s wardrobe! It kinda ruins it slightly for me

[bibliodragon.livejournal.com]

Those fashions are truly the most terrifying af all the monsters Mulder and Scully faced.

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

HAHA awesome.

What's strange is that she has a great body in general, and they put her in those terrible, ill-fitting suits so often (when they weren't trying to hide Gillian's pregnancy).

Yeah, yeah, she has a serious job. Tailoring, though!

While the huge pregnancy coat had it's job to do, and did it well, the rest of it looks as if it was just grabbed straight of the rack.

I actually loved her Classic X-Files wardrobe :-D. The pregnancy coat was annoying at times, but she was very nice still :-D.

I am not ashamed to say that I love classic Scully :-D .

[bibliodragon.livejournal.com]

She does manage to pull them off with her awesomeness countering the suspect fashion choices. I am totally jealous of her.

[rachg82.livejournal.com]

I LOVE YOU.

That is all. Haha.

[bibliodragon.livejournal.com]

Awww :D.

[omgpeachsnapple.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, this was awesome.
She rocked that pregnancy coat, at least. :P

[bibliodragon.livejournal.com]

She managed to fight it valiantly and bravely.

Oh my gods ^__^ This is the funniest post I've read all day. I've been trying to hide my giggles all through my Admin Law lecture.

Oh Scully; there are so many things to love, but so many bad outfits to cringe at.

I think my favorites here are "Vancouver weather enjoying Scully" and "casual sweats Scully".

I must admit, when I first watched Season 2, I had no idea Gillian Anderson was pregnant. I thought Scully just liked buying large men's coats from the thrift store....

(Oh damn, and now I'm reading the comments, and lol'ing even more!)

[lexlemon.livejournal.com]

Oh, and Dorky at home Scully is too Adorkable! Especially with those round harry-potter glasses! XD

[bibliodragon.livejournal.com]

There totally needed to be a Scully dress up doll with all her outfits and little gun and cell phone accessories. Fox merchandising missed a golden opportunity their :D.
