There came a point, actually, when we actually physically couldn’t make any more doublets for V because it was impossible in the time to make what we needed to do the shots, so we got less doublets made than we needed to, but then we faked the fronts of things, so you couldn’t tell. We made fake fronts because each one of those doublets is heavily padded and shaped and it’s a lot of work, and we’ve got back and front opening ones, depending on what scenes there are. The tailors were totally overwhelmed with work and it got to the point where we were shooting the things we needed costumes for and they physically weren’t able to do it all, so we worked around it.
