And before Betty’s tragedy plays out in the series, Candy was fun, flirty and fearless with her fashion, noted the costume designer, which is quite bold considering she’s not only living in a small Texas town but is also part of the Methodist church.

“She’s the tip of the spear in her community in looking cute and wearing interesting clothes,” Audrey said. “But she’s always at the church, taking care of business, so she has to span both worlds. She always looks just right. That’s who Candy is.”

In the miniseries, audiences also come to understand that it’s vital Candy presents herself as a Good Samaritan after she’s been accused of bludgeoning Betty 41 times with an axe.

“In the trial, Don is like, ‘You can’t be cute, sassy Candy or you’ll get convicted. You have to be the churchgoing, sweet wife,'” Audrey shared. “She really is playing all these different parts throughout the show.”
