Making terrible relationship choices is something Marnie does on a regular basis and last season on Girls she hit new levels of bad decision making by agreeing to marry Desi; in this new first full look at S5 it looks like Marnie will at least make it as far as her wedding day.
The ladies on Girls might be getting older, but there are still plenty of obstacles in their way including themselves and somehow their friendship bonds are still mostly intact (it’s still hard to imagine why they still hangout however infrequent). Earlier today I wondered whether these characters would spend much time together interacting this season and it looks just as fractured/contentious as it has been for the last few seasons, but this is only a trailer and it’s hard to gleam anything too detailed in a minute and a half.
What can be gathered is that everyone is falling into old patterns; Marnie lacks self awareness and of course she is someone who says her age with a half like she’s under 10. Shosh claims she is happy with her job/country move/running away from her problems, Jessa is still kind of mean and Hannah looks both happy and troubled by her relationship with Fran (the adorable Jake Lacy).
Instant snap shot moments ahoy! 
The main reason this interests me (aside from her age comment) is because of these pap shots (spoilers). 
This is a really fantastic outfit for Jessa and her smile looks pretty genuine, although it’s always hard to tell with this character.
Girls is always very good at club scenes and there’s a whole lot of dancing in the trailer. Plus this show always kills it when it comes to its music choices (the song in the trailer is “Colors” by Genevieve). The dude behind Shoshanna kinda looks like Ezra Miller. 
Oh hey there Jake Lacy and Hannah’s Beyoncé quoting sweatshirt. 
Marnie has a good reason to freak out about her makeup, but her wedding dress is stunning. 
Getting bridesmaid dress ideas for my wedding next year (not really I just want to freak my bridesmaids out).
Updated to include what the bridal party looks like before dress alterations and makeup disasters.
Watch the full trailer below where you will also see glimpses of Adam, Ray and Elijah.
Girls returns Sunday, February 21.
