“Bridgerton” actress Polly Walker said in a recent report Interview with Devon Ivey of Vulture, That her character’s brightly colored dresses are “a little tormented.”

By contrast, the rest of the characters are mostly displayed in soft or muted colors.

“I’d like to dress like Lady Bridgerton or Lady Danbury instead of these fluorescent colors,” she said, referring to the other moms on the show. “But this is the Featheringtons for you. If I can do it, anyone can do it.”

Walker said the “Bridgerton” writers not only put her character in colorful dresses, but also in awkward situations.

Walker’s representatives did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment.

Walker isn’t the only Bridgeton star who has a different style than his. Season 2 stars Simone Ashley and Nicola Coughlanwho plays Penelope Featherington, has shown that they don’t dress anything like the characters they portray.
