Her work and sense of style is fantastic; a lot of the cast looked amazing on the red carpet for the 13K episode, and her own personal style is outstanding! The IG post she made shopping for clothes for Y&R really excited me, because they looked outstanding!

So, according to her, not [all] of her costumes have begun to air. Some of the old costume designer is still airing, as of 11/21. According to her, her full looks should begin airing sometime around Thanksgiving. The only look she's done was Lucy's red jacket look.

She's also shown, via Instagram, that she is purging a lot of the costumings from the past in an re-organization of the "closet". It's quite amazing the work she's done/is doing.
