I kind of hate the lack of jewerly and over the top dresses Rhaenyra was known for.
In the book she's described as following:
"Rhaenyra always dressed richly, favoring purple and maroon velvets and golden Myrish lace in intricate patterns. Her bodice often glittered with pearls and diamonds, and there were always rings on her fingers. Whenever she was anxious, she would turn them compulsively around her fingers."
Don't get me wrong, some of the dresses she wore were cute (the red dress in ep 4 is probably my favorite). But it's like, where are the pearls, where is the velvet, where is the purple??
Both Milly and Emma are absolutely beautiful and honestly both od them deserved better costumes. I feel like a lot of the time, the dresses didn't fit their body properly or they weren't tailored properly.
From what we saw in the teasers, her hair and outfits look a lot better. Hopefully we get some fire dresses in S2.
Like, look at the way it doesn't fit her. Her chest area looks weird idk. But the color is pretty.
I hated this dress and her hair here 😭. Pls treat my Queen with proper respect!

Sweet Mother and Maiden.
Alicent was forced to watch her son drool over the bastard for what felt like a century, but she knew how that tale ended. She had witnessed it before.
There were times when she thought she could sacrifice everything for Rhaenyra, but those thoughts got swallowed down and sealed in the furthest corner of her mind, because that had never been possible. It was a smart choice. Alicent believed that Aemond would make the same one when the time would come.
Instead, he chose differently.
“I can’t believe you did such a thing,” she said when Aemond still hadn’t responded, or moved, or assured her that it was all a part of a great plan, “how could you put your… desires above the fate of this land? How could you be so selfish?”
“Because I am!” Snapped back Aemond, losing his composure at last, “I am selfish, mother, and I don’t need you to lecture me on this, because I don’t regret my decision for one. Moment,” he breathed through his teeth, “and I will choose him over this bloody land again and again if I have to!”

Rhaenyra is then visited by the Goblin Queen Alicent, who informs her the only way to get him back is to cross her labyrinth in thirteen hours.
