From Zap2It:

While Season 1 was set in the 18th century Scottish Highlands and, to a lesser extent, in Inverness in the 1940s, Season 2 will switch over into a new setting: Paris during the reign of King Louis XV. The transition will be set up in the show’s upcoming finale, but for now fans should know this means an entirely new look to the series, particularly in Terry Dresbach’s costume design.
“It’ll look totally different. It’s a whole new wardrobe, it’s a whole new color palette, it’s different fabrics. Now you’re dealing with the court of Louis XV, you’re dealing with French aristocracy,” Moore tells Zap2it. “It’s Paris, it’s an urban environment, it was the fashion leader of the time. Literally we’ve created an entire new wardrobe for the show.”
Moore attended the unveiling of A Tartan Affair, Starz’s For Your Consideration Emmy push for “Outlander’s” costumes, at Los Angeles’ The Grove shopping center on Friday, May 22. The exhibit will run through May 31. There fans can get a close-up look at the outfits Dresbach designed, like Claire’s wedding dress, Jamie’s kilt and Black Jack’s Red Coat uniform — the latter being Moore’s favorite costume in the series.

So awesome there’s a show featuring the glorious costumes! How I wish I lived close enough to go. Will have to be satisfied with photos. Can’t wait to see what Terry D has come up with for Season 2! I pictured all of the costumes as I read, and can’t wait to see them come to life!

Oh to live in Los Angeles! I would love to see these magnificent costumes in person. Such marvelous talent in every aspect of this series!
I really love the series, even with the tweaks necessary for time and flow. The S1.1 “Wedding” was far and away the finest in all photoplay aspects. Glad I’ve kept all of them to disc. Been worried about Sam’s mental health on the last 2 S1.2 episodes. Looking forward to s2.1.
