THE MORNING SHOW FEATURES FIT
FIT got a major shoutout on the acclaimed Apple TV+ series The Morning Show, a drama that stars Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon.
In the episode, which aired Oct. 18, 2023, the series’ morning show hosts a benefit for FIT’s scholarship program. During the event, news breaks that the Supreme Court will strike down Roe v. Wade, and the celebration of fashion and femininity becomes a tragic historic moment. Three 2022 FIT grads designed red-carpet fashions worn by extras on the show.
The series brought in FIT because “We found the juxtaposition of talking about women’s autonomy and fashion to be fitting,” said executive producer Kristin Hahn at a special screening of the episode held in the Katie Murphy Amphitheatre on Oct. 20. Costume designer Sophie de Rakoff and media personality Hal Rubenstein joined her to discuss the show’s costumes.
