Jillian Mercado, the 35-year-old model and “L-Word” actor, has been breaking barriers with nearly every career move she makes. And she’s just getting started, though she’s careful not to reveal too much too quickly.

“I am working on creating something in the world of fashion for my community,” Mercado coyly tells POPSUGAR. “Nothing that I can talk about at the moment.” While she has to remain mum about her forthcoming fashion project (for now), she’s excited to dig into her involvement with Tercera Cultura.

Speaking with POPSUGAR, costume designer Marina Toybina shares what it was like to work with such impressive names and how she crafted some of the show’s immaculate, stunning costumes — more than 300 in total.
