Why Is Selena Gomez's Style 'So Distinctive' Mabel from the OMITB

Dana Covarrubias described how she dressed Selena Gomez, Martin Short, and Steve Martin for Only Murders in the Building.  

The actors are "very involved" in choosing their characters' clothes, particularly Short, 73, who plays Oliver Putnam.  

"He enjoys talking about Oliver—Is this too much? "Is it too much?" Covarrubias informed us exclusively on Friday, September 22.  

Although the series is a comedy, and the fashion "can be silly," she believes it must be "balanced in a way that it's not too over the top or too silly."  

Covarrubias stated that fitting actors is her "favorite" part of the work. There is an amazing creative process that happens...   

"It's just so fun to think that something I do means so much to the actor or affects so much performance."  

Covarrubias pulls color inspiration from Gomez's red carpet costumes, although her personal style differs significantly from Mabel Mora's.  

"I just take the color element, but I'm not putting her in these very glamorous things that she wears in her red carpet life," Covarrubias explained to Us.
