The surprising reason why Selena Gomez wears a jacket
According to Cinema Blend , it is no coincidence that Selena Gomez wears such warm outfits throughout the work.
Recently, Emmy-nominated costume designer Dana Covarrubias revealed: “She (Selena Gomez) gets colds very easily. People don’t know that we have to work 12 hours a day. And the Actors in movies must not only be beautiful but also natural.

We thought a lot about how to make the actors really comfortable. As with Steve Martin and Martin Short, I always make sure they wear comfortable shoes and clothes that are easy to move in. As for Selena, I’m always worried that she’ll get cold. So we always let her wear warm coats.”
With the exception of the gorgeous wedding dress in episode 8 of season 3, the character Mabel’s outfits usually include a chunky sweater, an interestingly styled outerwear, a pair of platform boots with a dress or funny pants.
The costume designer explained that the platform boots symbolize the tough appearance of the character Mabel, and also help “cheat” Selena Gomez’s height, allowing the character to often run and jump without does not cause difficulty.
Besides, the character Mabel always carries headphones with her, representing a closed lifestyle from the world and is a typical model of a person in New York City .

As she strolls around her apartment, she wears an array of chic knitwear, from classic black turtlenecks to diamond-patterned tops.
Cinema Blend rates Mabel’s character’s costumes as highly aesthetic but also practical and warm, perfect for long days on set.
