25 “The Last Of Us” Season 2 Behind-The-Scenes Facts Straight From Costume Designer Ann Foley

Speaking about working with the props department on creating the iconic bracelet, Ann said, “I knew Nevin [Swain, prop master for Season 2] was a genius when it came to creating these props. So he had somebody who built the bracelet for us. I loved this bracelet. When I was starting prep on the show early, early on, I remember having a conversation with my friend’s 16-year-old daughter, and she said, ‘You have to promise me, Aunt Ann, that Dina’s bracelet is going to make it into the show. Just please promise me.’ And I was like, ‘Okay, I promise it will.'”

She continued, saying, “So it was really important to me to make sure I got that right for Noah because she was so passionate about it. Of course, it’s a big part of the story as well, so there was no way it wasn’t going to make it into the game, but the fact that Noah brought that to my attention made it even more special to me.”
