Kim Kardashian’s All’s Fair is perfect escapism for fashion lovers’

Paulson’s range of leather gloves make it clear that her character Carrington Lane is the villain. Clocking her glove wardrobe is almost as difficult as counting the number of fireplaces and glasses of champagne in every scene.

Most powerful pussy-bow

Almost Oscar-winner Glenn Close joins in the fashion fun as Dina Standish, without showing her thongs. Instead, the 78-year-old is bedecked in power suits, like the Dolce & Gabbana blue floral Jacquard blazer with a white pussy blow blouse.

Murphy deserves credit for including more mature actresses, such as Close, in the fashion frivolity. Former Who’s The Boss star Judith Light, 76, has the longest black gloves of all, worn at the jewellery auction her character Sheila Baskin holds for financial security after leaving her neglectful husband.

The pussy-bow award goes to Paulson, in a scene where the size of her neck detail deserves a wide load sign. Of course, it’s worn with lace gloves.

‘Where does the money come from’ award

While many junior associate lawyers contend with Scanlan Theodore sale items and Trenery suits, Murphy and Bradley aren’t interested in raiding the lower floors of a Westfield shopping centre.

Teyana Taylor as aspiring lawyer Milan (Paris was taken), has an enviable wardrobe of Rick Owens cut-out tops and matching tracksuits.

Not since freelance columnist Carrie Bradshaw in SATC managed to afford a shoe collection rivalling the 3000 pairs owned by former first lady of the Philippines Imelda Marcos has fashion maths failed to add up.

Hats on award

Every day is Melbourne Cup day for Niecy Nash’s character Emerald Greene. Greene precariously balances an array of outfits with plunging necklines from black designers LaQuan Smith, Charles Harbison and Sergio Hudson, with an array of hats.

Nash has been passed the turban torch from Joan Collins’ Dynasty character Alexis Carrington, who favoured the headpieces when she wasn’t indulging in cat fights.

The award goes to…

Yes, All’s Fair is trash television but if you’re clutching your Paspaley pearls at Kardashian’s character exposing her underwear in the office of a legal firm, you’re missing the point.

The plot is lighter than an Ozempic addict but the spirit of campy fun and aesthetic indulgence is captivating.

In these challenging times, post-apocalyptic series like Pluribus and The Last of Us can feel too close to home. I’ll take my weekly dose of denial with a hefty serve of Chanel handbags, gloves and fireplaces instead.

All’s Fair is now streaming on Disney+.
