If Kate reminded you a bit of Rachel Greene and Cher Horowitz blended together, that's the intention. "Her colour palette is very pinks, which was also very popular in the '90s, so I kept everything really fresh and bright," said Trujillo. She used all MAC Cosmetics products in Kate's look because that's what "everybody chic used at the time."
But Kate wouldn't be complete without her bright blond blowout. "In '93, I wanted her to be the stereotypical American blond girl," said Kirkpatrick. He wanted to make her highlights look intentionally unnatural, that way you knew she frequented a hair salon. "It showed she paid attention to how she looked and tried to improve herself," he said.
