Conrad worked with the animators to design the retro outfits that Lisa and the school's fashion club wore, using references from old ''{{W|Delia's}}'' catalogs and teen dramas like ''{{W|Dawson's Creek}}'' to make outfits that "[captured] that late '90s, early 2000s feel while also making it resonate with what kids are wearing now."<ref name="CartoonBrew">[https://www.cartoonbrew.com/series/behind-the-scenes-simpsons-season-37-premiere-254990.html Cartoon Brew - "Behind The Scenes Of ‘The Simpsons’ Fashion-Forward Season 37 Premiere"]</ref>

 Director [[Gabriel DeFrancesco]] said that the "sheer number of wardrobe swaps was the big challenge" of the episode. DeFrancesco also joked that he was living through the episode's storyline himself when his mother-in-law "kept sending boxes of her old clothes to my kids."<ref name="CartoonBrew"/>
