    The first photo from Little Fires Everywhere is your 90s fashion fantasy

    Today, Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington released the first photo from the set of Little Fires Everywhere, their adaptation of Celeste Ng’s 2017 bestselling novel, which will premiere on Hulu in 2020—and I have to say that the looks are on point. The novel is set in the 90s, and Washington’s outfit is everything I dreamed for myself in that era (and our current era) and more.

    As one commenter on Witherspoon’s Instagram put it: “This photo cured my depression and cleared my skin.” To which I say: hard same.

    The series is being produced by Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine, Kerry Washington’s Simpson Street and ABC Signature Studios. The cast includes Reese Witherspoon (Elena Richardson), Kerry Washington (Mia Warren), Rosemarie DeWitt (Linda McCullough), Joshua Jackson (Bill Richardson), Jade Pettyjohn (Lexie Richardson), Jordan Elsass (Trip Richardson), Gavin Lewis (Moody Richardson), Megan Stott (Izzy Richardson), and Lexi Underwood (Pearl Warren).
