really really annoyed at the costuming in this scene. cordelia, in the script, VERY specifically told buffy "no black, silk, chiffon, or spandex, those are /my/ trademarks" to dress for the party. cordelia does indeed arrive in a silky dress, though it's very bright blue and covered in flowers. and buffy shows up in a simple BLACK dress

IT WASNT A LONG LIST!!!! WTF!!!

#like we didnt get a line from cordelia complaining about buffy stepping on her turf #i could see biffy ignoring her commands but buffy is clearly VERY insecure atm!!!#she is actually relying on cordy a bit!!!#and cordelia would speak up about a perceived slight!!!!#buffy could just as easily wear the exact same dress in dark green and it would fit well enough into her usual style #without stepping into cordy's professed wheelhouse #or even pink!!! highlight her awkwardness and innocence!!! use her clothes to reflect out childish and out of place she feels inside!#give her red because she's trying to be sexy/put her heart on the line and is failing!#blue because she's trying to project calm and collected!!!#yellow makes me think of joy but also of unsteady anxiety. she's twisting her hands. doesnt know what to say or where to stand #doesnt know of she's made the right choice being there. seeing someone other than angel #theres so many options why did they do blackkkkk
