I (once again this seems to be a theme with us *laughs*) agree, I prefer Rose's costumes in S1 because they are cheap. Jackie is perfect, shlumping around in velour tract suits and other ensembles that are a bit too young for her.
There's a great throw away line about the cheap-ness of the clothes at the beginning of this ep; Jackie is doing Rose's laundry and comments on how her 'red top is falling to bits'. I'd love to have the hoodie or the pink shirt from Impossible Planet/Satan’s Pit. I think I read somewhere that the grey shirt was cut that way; with the shoulders taken out of it.
I must note there are a few things I don’t like about Rose’s costumes. I don’t like the Punky Fish that she wears in The Long Game. Maybe it’s the colour combo in relation to the colouring of the episode but I don’t like that top on her.
I also found that her costumes were a bit more posh in S2. I attribute that to the wardrobe in the TARDIS and the Doctor paying for things. S4, well she’s got access to money then – though the parallel between her costume and Ten2 is nice.
And thanks about the icon. I’ve used it since I started my LJ years ago. I wish I could remember who to credit for the art work but sadly I didn’t pay attention to such things then. :(
