The murder mystery series that debuted in 2020 has gained a lot of attention this year, securing multiple Emmy nominations and an award for its main title theme music.

Kaley Cuoco’s Wardrobe in The Flight Attendant Is Turning Heads

One of the unsung players in The Flight Attendant is Catherine Marie Thomas, who is the costume designer for the series.

Kaley Cuoco’s wardrobe has created a lot of buzz, including her uniform and garb while off the clock.

“We needed an outfit change — something that Cassie could’ve bought off the street — otherwise, she’d be in the same clothes forever,” Cat Thomas told Refinery29 about filming the second season.

“I love this city so much, so [an ‘I Love New York’ sweatshirt] felt like the perfect fit.”

They had to get permission from New York’s Governor Andrew Cuomo to include the iconic “I Love New York” hoodie in the show.

What Designers Inspired Her The Flight Attendant Looks?

Thomas used inspiration from Diane von Fürstenberg and pieces from Max Mara, Marni, and Stella McCartney. Kaley’s effortless beauty paired with these killer styles is a recipe for success.

Kaley Cuoco Brings The Flight Attendant to Life

Kaley Cuoco is largely responsible for the series being created as a television show.

Cuoco had only read a brief summary of the Chris Bohjalian novel before securing the television rights to the story. The novel hadn’t even been published yet!

“I have a very strong gut feeling, and when I saw this book and I was thinking of what the next project would be, ‘Do I want to option something? What do I want to do?’ When I saw this book and I read this girl, I thought, ‘Oh my God, this would make a really fascinating TV character.’ I just thought that it would… Then all of a sudden I was in New York shooting it, got a great team and three years later, it’s amazing to see this come to life ’cause it really has been my baby,” Cuoco told Entertainment Tonight.

“I loved everything about her,” Cuoco added about portraying alcoholic flight attendant Cassie Bowden.

“Obviously this girl struggles and she’s got a lot of emotional turmoil, and as we find out in the eight episodes, a lot goes back to her childhood, which is something she’s been running from her entire life. And alcohol is what makes her escape from what has truly happened to her. The trauma of waking up [after] this murder, it’s just adding on and bringing her back to her childhood.”

What Has Kaley Cuoco Been Working on Lately?

Kaley Cuoco has been on a roll lately between starring in a new, successful television show, becoming an apparent fashion icon, and running her production company, Yes, Norman Productions.

She’s also been lending her voice to Harley Quinn in the adult animated DC Comics spinoff. The third season is set to be released on HBO Max in 2022 after two successful seasons with DC Universe.

Kaley Cuoco Pairs Up With Pete Davidson in Meet Cute Rom-Com

Cuoco has just wrapped filming of Meet Cute, a romantic comedy starring both Kaley and actor-comedian Pete Davidson.

The film is about Kaley’s character, Shiela, who stumbles upon a time machine that she uses to repeatedly alter the previous night’s date.

Kaley Cuoco and Pete Davidson apparently shared some chemistry on the set and have a “very close friendship” following filming.

Rumors started to fly this fall after filming was complete when Cuoco and her husband of three years dropped the announcement of their divorce filing in early September.

Recent events debunked the rumors, however, when Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian had been seen together, presumably coupled, following Kim’s appearance on Saturday Night Live.

In March 2016, Kaley Cuoco traded her typically sexy and daring style for something much edgier and playful at the 2016 PaleyFest panel for “The Big Bang Theory” held in Los Angeles.

Kaley carried a small black bag that featured a unique red dot design and slipped her feet into a pair of tri-tone Myra pumps by Kurt Geiger London.

She pulled her hair up into a top knot to draw attention to her bold makeup, which included hot pink lipstick and plum eyeshadow.
