Thank goodness that didn't happen.

As for who almost got the part that went to Isolda.....hmmmm........which English actress could it have been? Billie Piper? Nahhh.....

Christina doesn't seem right for the role and honestly I think I read that Colin Farell was supposed to be Cesare and I just couldn't see it.

Billie is way too old for this now and I'm sure we would have heard anything had she auditioned. My initial thought was Jemima Kirke (who I like fine) or Imogen Poots maybe but I've never been a fan of the latter. In any case I'm glad they made the right choice, Isolda is too perfect. I would like Jemima in a guest role though (regardless if she was even in the running), I think she is cool.

I think I posted those at some point but it showcases my favourite thing about the wardrobe very beautifully: the hairnets. I'm about crochet one myself (albeit more 1930s style). Althought the intricate braids of season 2 grew on me the tiny hairnets which looked like a pillowbox hat at the back of the head... I just liked the above a lot better.

Some of Holliday's hairstyles have been incredibly intricate havent they, especially the weaves with the pearls, I must try find a pic. I do love the hairnets too. Wonder how long the ladies have to sit in makeup and hairstyling in every episode. The men have it so much easier!

I mean it was pretty obvious that those were wigs. The thing I liked a bit better in S2 as opposed to S1 was that the hair colour appeared more natural. Otherwise I prefer the S1 hairstyle.

That being said – new picture! So excited for the hair and wardrobe!

Finally! A better wardrobe for Borgia!

I think that was lacking the first season.

I think there were a few beautiful dresses last season. Like the gold gown Lucrezia wore for her first engagement. Generally though I think that the poor lighting obstructed the view quite often. So I'm all for more and better visibility.
