Pat McDonagh (fashion designer)

 * ... that Pat McDonagh designed costumes for The Beatles and Diana Rigg, clothes for Cher and Ella Fitzgerald, and the "Mrs Obama coat"?
 * Alt1 ... that Pat McDonagh designed costumes for The Beatles, leather catsuits for Diana Rigg as Emma Peel in The Avengers, and the "Mrs Obama coat"?
 * I think the clothes were only worn by Cher and Ella, not necessarily designed for them. Philafrenzy (talk) 18:24, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
 * That bit was "poetic license". I've linked catsuit. We could link Emma Peel, but maybe best not to overlink. Edwardx (talk) 19:36, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Link Emma Peel and de-link Diana Rigg? The suits were for the character. Philafrenzy (talk) 19:39, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Done. And I've struck my hook. Edwardx (talk) 20:12, 14 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Symbol question.svg New enough (create/expand 9 June, nom 14 June) and long enough. QPQ done. ALT1 checks out with online citation #1 for Beatles and Diana Rigg costumes, and online citation #2 for Obama coat. No problems with disambig links or with access to external links. Article is fully referenced (except see issue 1 below). Text is objective and neutral. One of the two article images is free, and the other is fair-use. Issues: (1) Please reference the Sorbonne with citation #1. (2) Re possible copyvio and close paraphrasing, duplicated passages found with spot checks are: "on the streets of toronto with a parrot on her shoulder she""bell bottoms minidresses jumpsuits and maxi coats" When issues 1 and 2 are resolved, this nom should be OK. --Storye book (talk) 14:36, 29 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Done. Philafrenzy (talk) 16:09, 29 June 2014 (UTC)
