“Dear @willie.garson : this look was supposed to be in the bread van scene to ‘bookend’ @iamkristindavis ‘s outfit eps 105 #costumediary #youaremissed ? @thredup #thriftforwillie ? ??,” Rogers captioned a photo of the geometric patterned suit selected for Stanford in a scene with Charlotte York-Goldenblatt (played by Kristin Davis) in episode 5 di And Just Like That.... andato in onda la scorsa settimana.

quando E proprio così… costume designers Rogers and Danny Santiago curated looks for the reboot, they pulled pieces from designers, il show’s archive and even the online consignment and thrift shop thredUP. To celebrate the series, the styling duo teamed up with the company on a curated online thredUP storefront, with all proceeds honoring Garson.
“It means a great deal to all of us, because we didn’t have [Willie] for too many episodes and this is a great way to give a little nod [a lui] or a little gratitude,” Rogers told PEOPLE of the partnership, that gives 100% of proceeds to The Willie Garson Fund, which connects children in foster care to a loving family.
Rogers added: “When thredUP reached out about this partnership, per me, it was perfect timing because Willie was all on our mind and just to be able to do something organically that people are into, which is thrifting, and you feel good about yourself when you thrift because you’re being a recycler and you’re being green and it just kind of all layered in and it was just super appropriate.”
