“I wanted that maybe in retrospect, Daenerys had been trying to hang on to their heritage and lineage by some of the techniques and things that were in her costumes. So yes I have used elements that I’ve decided on, or the kind of Targaryen aesthetic because I wanted to feel like… the Targaryens were from old Valyria.
