[Maddie] is not seeing Cleo at all, Turini tellsVogue.
She is not seeing her as a human being.

They could be reading a fashion magazine, but ultimately its a little bit more rooted in reality.
My crew was primarily from Baltimore, which I loved, Turini said.

Yet she and Harel wanted Cleos costumes to feel vintage or like something she may have already had.
