For this Costuming Peaks article, I’m taking a deep dive into Earle’s many outfits (faux mustache not required).

One of the most iconic publicity photos from David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me shows Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee) sitting on a bed in room 6 at the Red Diamond City Motel. I say it’s “iconic” because it was used extensively for the film’s key artwork in markets around the world.
