0:11
Come on. It's realistic. Away beaming. It doesn't just happen. I love it
0:20
Dancing through life, we're so excited. I found this more vintage-y looking pink lace, you know
0:28
but it still works for us. So we can just kind of emulate a dress with that
0:34
I love like her kind of like soft sleeves and then like a tighter bodice
0:40
and then like a softer skirt. Right. So, but we will make the skirt
0:45
out of the same fabric, right? Just to make it look... And then Fiero had kind of like a blue
0:50
I don't know if you can see that feel for him. You know, I'll make a shirt out of this
0:54
There was some t on there. So we're gonna get that custom printed, the trim for you guys ready to be fiero i was born ready this is the role i was born to play
1:04
this is the first fitting to try on my glinda dress for wicked night so let go try it on come on Hi how are you Good how are you I love all the green and pink everywhere Welcome to the wardrobe bungalow here
1:19
Dancing with the Stars. And for the first time, I am gonna see my Fiero look for Wicked Night
1:26
Come on, let's go. Hey you guys, first time seeing it is so cute
1:31
We wanted it to be kind of different from first, but very similar
1:35
We found this really cool fabric and it moves really well. So we're gonna try it on
1:43
The next time I see you, you won't be looking at Robert Eowyn. You'll be looking at Tia
1:49
Okay, here it is. We're ready. We are ready for Wicked. We kind of did a little like lace sleeve here
1:59
and then we put some horse hair on the bottom of the skirt
2:02
so it kinda like flick out and be super danceable. Hello! What's up
2:08
This is amazing! This is awesome, look at us. Look at this
2:12
All of a sudden I feel like Fiero. There is no pretence here. I happen to be genuinely self and deeply shallow And we still gonna add some of the trims on there This mini callus to match the So it going to have the proper Fiero trim on there
2:30
They make everything from scratch, so what you see on television is brand new
2:34
It takes them five days. Five days to turn around. They work 24-7. They make us feel beautiful
2:42
And they're just... Not hard. They're very talented. I do have a question. Have you been practicing your Toss Toss
2:47
Well I can't really put it in a ponytail. When I first found out that I would be Fiero for my dance, the first thing that springs
2:57
to my mind, and I think springs to anyone's mind, is dancing through life
3:01
You just think of that look with the gold collar, you think about the cropped jacket
3:06
so iconic, and then when I found out this is the song we're doing, and then I saw that first concept, my mind was just like, this is going to be awesome
3:14
I think everything came together just so perfectly and I'm so excited
3:18
Now we just need some hair and makeup and then I'll be Glinda
3:26
Okay, the wicked Glinda look is coming together. We got some sparkle on the eye I think this look definitely adds the pressure because as soon as you are in these characters as soon as we transition from Whitney and Robert to Glinda and Fierro
3:42
it's like, whoa, hang on a minute. We're in the wicked universe. We have to live up to that
3:46
We have to do it justice. And we will, won't we? We always do. If we got to keep the costumes
3:54
I would definitely do Halloween. Halloween? Get a little wand and a crown and set
3:59
Perfect. A little bubble? How do I get a bubble around? We can work on that. We can work on that
4:04
I hope people really feel joy and kind of feel like the life of the movie
4:09
and the life of the characters, and I think it all came together really nicely
4:13
I'm super proud of you too. Oh, mate. We're a good team. Fierro and Glinda
4:19
I think it was also really fun to have a dance and a song that is about just dancing through life, not taking anything too seriously
4:26
just having fun, remembering to kind of sit back and enjoy every now and again
4:30
Yes, I love that. Thanks for watching guys! Thanks guys, bye! Bye
