THE ONLY GOOD THING ABOUT 'THE IDOL' WAS THE 'FITS

Plagued with controversies and drama before it ever graced screens, Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye's foray into film has been received with mixed reactions. Comments like "super fucking boring" and "The writing sucked, plot felt empty and The Weeknd’s AliExpress wig got me fucked up" give a good insight into the explicit, angry reviews you can find online.

But, there's no need to kick a mega-budget television series while it's down — there was one small saving grace. The outfits.

While we expect the mood behind the scenes to be pretty low at the moment, one member of the team should not be feeling down.

Natasha Newman-Thomas, head of costume design, take a bow — the outfits in the first episode were pretty top tier (if you turn a blind eye to "The Weeknd’s AliExpress wig," of course).

In fact, one of our biggest criticisms is that there are not enough clothes. Previously described as "twisted torture porn," the show's painfully forced sexual plot has so far involved people getting naked left, right, and center.

When they are fully clothed, however, there are some strong 'fits being pulled off.
