ADA Marion Alba Has An “Insane” Fashion Sense in ‘Will Trent’ Season 3

Rodriguez’s character is not only a badass officer of the law inWill TrentSeason 3, but her wardrobe is also captivating, according to the actress. Thanks to ADA Marion Alba’s outfits, Rodriguez will have the opportunity to be someone she has never been before as she gushed:

“Oh my God, my wardrobe is insane. The wardrobe helps me come out of myself in a way that I’ve never [experienced]. It allows me to be somebody different, stand differently, walk differently, present myself differently. It also [makes me] feel like these people are real and alive and they’re colorful, and it’s not your standard police precinct, district attorney situation.”
