Haven't seen today's ep yet but so will be interested to see the clothes.

So far I think they have been very character specific (even if I don't like some of them eg Kat's cutsie style) Anita is very showy/glittery, Nicole classic elegance, Dani sexy/bold colors etc.

Unlike Y&R which seems much more generic.

Also BTG pays attention to the men's wardrobe and has developed a style for the boyz-which is harder to do with male fashion.

The absence of any of Derek/Ashley at any of these big events again demonstrates how they are in a different universe to the rest of the show. Not that a nurse and a fireman would be there but still they seem destined at this point to stay in their own lane and have little interaction with the core of the show.

Party wardrobe color theme:

Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown.

The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink
(with purple accents)
-- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses.
-- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket.
(did not see Naomi?)

"The help" Eva and Mona are in black.

Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown.

The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black.
Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket.
(Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background)
Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie).***
Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket.
Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket.
Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket.
(did not see Jacob?)

I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.

*** Edit: Vernon was wearing a cravat, not a turtleneck, as was pointed out downthread.

Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous.
The light green flashback dress was quite different than
the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.
 

I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.

Martin and Smitty's kids not being there seemed like a glaring omission.

Also, Naomi and Jacob weren't there as well.

I know some of this is probably budget, but it seems like there could be a way to still have them all there.

    • OH, I AM.   And it looks like it's a pretty good episode so I might watch later on this weekend after work cuz I see a lot of scenes with people I actually like. Very happy to see Rocco/Danny appear to be getting story, too. 
    • I do agree that a revival of EON would work, if it doesn't fall into doing all of the typical soap opera tropes... which it became guilty of in the final few years of the show with the over abundance of Raven/Sky at the expense of the actual detectives, police, etc. And I know it was mentioned earlier that Raven had lost any true connections on the show with the death of her on screen mother, and the loss of April/Draper/Deborah.. and I do agree with that. I actually thought the show would have done something with the Shelley character that could have connected her to the Raven character.  There were a few scenes where the two would have scenes and size one another up before they would go their separate ways.. so I assumed perhaps they would have been revealed as half-siblings and/or perhaps cousins.  Alas.. not to be.
    • It definitely flowed beautifully. So much that I was annoyed when Vanessa/Doug because I wanted to get back to the party. I know it was intentional to build up tension and suspense. It worked. lol. I'm glad it was there in hingsight because it gave us that great conversation between Doug and Vanessa. Foreshadowing? And yesss!!! This episode was sooo old school soap giving beat after beat after beat leading up to the unveiling of Eva as Ted's daughter. And we still have plenty of fallout/aftereffects to work through.   Speaking of...Bill, Bill, Bill lol. Good to have confirmation HE was the scary lawyer.   I'm sure I will have a busy Monday, but I can't wait for it. I don't know what I'm looking forward to more. Probably Anita vs Silk Press Sheila tbh. And yes, I feel they will be matching each other 'blow for blow.' 
    • And if they go there, it could also be tied to Johnny completely cutting him off, possibly going to work for Titan, etc.
    • @AbcNbc247 maybe it is just that they've gone to that well too often, and I don't like when DAYS goes dark, but I'm OK with EJ abusing drugs, and just skipping the whole sobriety part. Side note: experiencing hallucinations of my son killing me would be enough for me to never want to take a pill again.

    • Part of the reason that Courtney worked at OLTL was because the show had an actual character for her to play.  One that was somewhat different than her character on AW, and after the way she was treated over at AW.. it had to have been nice to be courted onto a new soap that actually valued your contributions.  
    • I figured the "long" was already implied 
    • You'll be very impressed
