It is not about, Im going to buy myself some new clothes to cheer myself up.
Read on for more from our conversation with Paolo on Olivias newScandalcolor guard.
What could be traumatic enough?

But its going to be big, and how should we reflect that?
Shonda actually ended up writing it in the first episode back.
Rowan actually said, Whats with the clothes?

There was also that yellow dress, the one she wore under the black coat.
And a lot of people were like, Oh my God, shes in a skirt!
and then later we revealed that its a dress, which, again, Olivia doesnt wear dresses.
Shes always been in pants, except in flashbacks.
Youll find out later in the season!
I was so struck by the poncho from the last episode, as well.
Oh, I love that poncho.
Weve been playing with that a lot when we have those two characters together.
Mellie is doing her own thing now.
How does Olivias palette continue to evolve as the season goes on?
but we are continuing with this color palette for the time being, so far.
What do you and Kerry discuss as youre choosing what Olivia is going to wear each week?
So were very weekly, and very much a team effort with Kerry.
We do it all together.
So its always an ongoing thing.
Im sure youre sworn to secrecy, but is there anything else you might tease about whats coming up?
I just want our Gladiators to know that Olivia is blossoming.
They should keep watching to see that.
The rest of this season is so crazy, I dont even know where to start.
Theres a Burberry coat coming soon that Im obsessed by.
I dont think thatll give anything away.
So maybe we could start that.
