a fancy look

Describe Tia Landry's look:

 She looks very studious and conservative, yet her look can be very fun, with vibrant colors. She's always wearing what's in style.

 How does your own look compare? If I'm feeling very happy or just want to have fun, I will wear baby-doll dresses and bright colors, but if I'm about to do a project, I will look very studious and go to dark browns and pantsuits. I love dressing with different looks and being very mysterious so people can't figure me out.

Are you actively involved with your character's look? All the way. In the beginning of the season, we'll sit down with the designer [Ceci, who goes by only her first name], and then she'll say, "Tia and Tamera, what do you want to look like?" and then I'll sit down and tell her. What we do is grab Elle magazine, and we just show her -- "I want to look like this, I love this type of designer" -- and then she'll go out and get it.

Favorite designer: Bisou Bisou and BCBG. We wear a lot of their clothes on and off the show.

Favorite color to wear: My mom hates this: I love black. My mom's like, "Tia, why are you always buying black shoes?" I say, "Mom, you don't understand, I have to have them in different styles."

What article of clothing would you love to steal from your TV wardrobe? There's this particular dress that I wore about two seasons ago, and it's still there, and I'm trying to ask for it. It's a short dress with black lace that goes on the top, and then under it is this shiny, gold slip thing, and I like it because it's unique. It's like, I have to get this dress.

My wardrobe designer, Ceci, is a genius because… She's very, very creative. We wear a lot of stuff that a lot of people are always asking about -- "Where did you get that?"

Describe Tamera Campbell's look: Tamera Campbell likes to be very different, so she likes to wear funky clothes. They're very colorful, because she loves the attention.

 How does your own look compare? I'm completely different. I'm more like Tia's character on the show. I love her style because she has conservative clothing and she sometimes wears blacks and browns but she's still cool, she's still stylish.

Are you actively involved with your character's look? If we say we don't like it, Ceci says, "OK, don't wear it." Because I have to feel comfortable in my clothes so I can act in them.

Favorite designer: I love BCBG, and I love United Colors of Benetton.

Favorite color to wear: I like brown because it looks really good on my skin color.

What article of clothing would you love to steal from your TV wardrobe? All the hats, because they're very different, they're very creative. There's this one particular hat that looks like a patchwork quilt. It is so beautiful, and it's all brown! Oh, yeah!

My wardrobe designer, Ceci, is a genius because… She's always in tune with the times, whatever is on the runway. And she always creates a new style.
