Costume designer Joseph La Corte was tasked with costuming a cast from the height of the Lavender Scare through the AIDS epidemic.
When costume designer Joseph La Corte signed onto Fellow Travelers—the decade-spanning tale that follows the clandestine romance between two D.C. political staffers from the height of the Lavender Scare in the 1950s through the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s—he was well prepared for the job. La Corte, whose previous credits include Under the Banner of Heaven and Fosse/Verdon, knows a thing or two about following characters over the course of their lifetimes.
” In a show set in such a dark time period, La Corte was able to find the light in Allison Williams’s character, Lucy, a worldly senator’s daughter and Hawkins’s wife. Lucy is the exception to the otherwise somber overtones, knowing that, as a public figure, she is inclined to present a certain way. “She goes to a cocktail party, she’s going to have the nice dress that that was in the shop window. She wants to look good,” he says.
