Find Out Why The Good Wife's Alicia Florrick Dressed In Neutrals in Season 5, Episode 8 From Costume Designer, Daniel Lawson
The Good Wife's Alicia FlorrickĀ (Julianna Margulies) is one month into launching her law firm after leaving Lockhart Gardner (or after last night, The LG) and she is maintaining her bold exterior throughout the tumultuous transition. "IĀ don't think she's quite confident yet," costume designer Daniel Lawson told InStyle.com today. That's why he'sĀ keeping her in neutrals until she really gets on her feet, like a gray floral Rena Lange jacket with black Gucci pants, or the black gold zip-front L'Agence jacket with an Alexander McQueen pencil skirt that he dressed her in for last night's episode. "I really think the neutral tones this season are working well for us," Lawson added. "As we move along, we might see a lot more color starting to peek in, but not quite yet." Flip through the gallery to find out what else she woreāincluding her roomy, versatile black bag.

Season 5, Episode 10: Michael Kors Jacket
"This stand-up exaggerated collar was definitely a departure from her usual silhouette," said Lawson. "You still got a sense of her body but this shape made her seem really strong."

Season 5, Episode 10: Alexander McQueen Pantsuit and Armani Blouse
"She wore this to her holiday party, which fit because I wanted her to represent her law firm and wear a holiday-ish color," explained Lawson. "I thought it was risky to do a pantsuit, but I went with it because it was so unexpected. I'm glad we didāJulianna thought it was perfect, chic and elegant."

SEASON 5, EPISODE 9: ESCADA JACKET, ETRO BLOUSE, AND GUCCI TROUSERS
"This was the opening look, and it worked perfectly," said costume designer Dan Lawson. "The Etro blouse underneath had gold and silver beading. It could have been worn by itself, but putting it with the blazer gave her a wonderful layer of sparkle around her neck."

SEASON 5, EPISODE 9: GUCCI BLAZER AND ESCADA SKIRT
"I loved how this double-breasted jacket was a feminized version of a man's double breasted suit," explained Lawson. "And the color was great!"
