Ugly Betty is known for its eccentric, fashion-forward costumes, which are put together by Sex and the City's stylist extraordinaire, Patricia Field. TVGuide.com spoke with Paolo Nieddu, Field's assistant costume designer, to get some insight on selected fashions from the show.
"Pat Field created this poncho and it really set the tone of Betty's Mexican heritage," says Nieddu. The same poncho from Season 1 has just been duplicated for Betty's new office at Mode, where it's framed on her wall. "It can be interpreted that she's hanging up the old Betty."
