Scandal’s on Tonight! The Show's Costume Designer on Kerry Washington's Looks

On Scandal, the story line for Katie Lowes’s character Quinn Perkins is about to get crazy—she said so herself—and we can’t wait to watch the story unravel a little bit more tonight. In the meantime, there is so much more at play on this show that goes on behind-the-scenes, especially in the wardrobe department. That's why we caught up with the show’s costume designer, Lyn Paolo, to find out the inspiration behind this season's look. (Fun fact: She also clothed the cast of Friends!) Click through the gallery to get wardrobe details straight from Paolo, then tune in tonight for a new episode at 10 p.m. EST on ABC.
