Warning: Spoilers ahead! The most momentous thing (from a fashion perspective) to happen in the last episode--which passed with very little commentary by the characters--is that Brienne of Tarth wore a dress. A pink dress lined with fur at the bosom. This is kind of a big deal for someone who's always wearing armor. We got all the scoop from costume designer Michele Clapton about what she was thinking when she designed that dress and how she wanted Brienne to look. More this way...

It might officially be spring now, but make no mistake: Winter is coming. And so is season three of Game of Thrones! Finally. Hasn't it felt like th
