[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 339329, member: 57984"] By the mid-'80s, that kind of fashion was ubiquitous. But DALLAS' Travilla era just took it too far -- causing the Ewings to look (as others have said) like they were headed out to the Oscars every time they went to dinner... Season 8 (per DVD count) was okay that way, but Season 9 just got sillier... It fit DYNASTY, but on DALLAS it became really excessive. And Travilla just used too much pleating, too much draping. Turning DALLAS into a Greek tragedy or another kind. Add to that the Ye Olde Curiosity Shoppe production design that descended on Southfork during the dream season, one began to anticipate (as someone else once correctly observed) the actresses tripping over the set pieces, their heels probably caught in the hems of their gowns, doubling the injury.
