One of the major non-Roy characters featured in Succession is Kerry Castellabate (played by Zoe Winters), Logan Roy's personal assistant who eventually becomes his (last) companion. She leverages her position close to the throne to get an audition for her dream job: ATN Correspondent. But we all knew that job was never actually going to happen, especially Matland.
In a conversation with The Ringer, Matland described how Castellabate's overconfidence in securing the on-air job (thanks to her coziness with Roy) was telegraphed by the overconfidence displayed in her outfits. "They're just on the left side of right. They're not really appropriate for what she's attempting to become. And the clothes just reflect how she's not quite in the loop. The silhouettes and the colors are a little bit too much," explains Matland. "She's loud and proud, and it doesn't quite work. And against the compensation for her delicate position, everyone else has sort of a classic look — simplicity, very clean cuts, minimalist. She is slightly outrageous in comparison."
