As the film's costume designer, Molly Rogers, tells Bustle, she pitched CBK as a reference early on, citing the late Calvin Klein publicist's "really sleek and clean" look as a kind of timeless uniform. "Because she's always either going to be right behind Miranda or right next to her, and I didn't want anything pulling focus," Rogers says.
They let us shoot in places people weren't allowed to normally, like Marie Antoinette's private theater. They were like, 'This is your home.' The Versailles exhibition will screen several scenes from Coppola's film in the very rooms where they were staged, highlighting the deep connection between these storied grounds and her acclaimed creation.
It feels incredible to be a small part of the history that Alysa has made now. I think for most people, this Olympic gold dress will forever be etched in people's minds.
The pics show Turner sporting tactical gear: black mid-calf boots, grey cargo pants, and a black vest over a ribbed brown long-sleeve shirt. Lara Croft's iconic dual pistols are strapped to her thighs, and she dons her classic small knapsack in green canvas with brown leather straps. The fit is tied together with a forearm brace, fingerless leather gloves, a belt outfitted with grenades, and, of course, Lara's signature braid.
Over the course of three "Avatar" movies, Scott has crafted thousands of costumes for the completely fictional world of Pandora, rooting her designs in meticulous research (Cameron's mandate was that everything should be drawn from real-world influences) but then letting her imagination take flight to create a vivid, fully realized fantasy world.
It's pride, gratitude, responsibility, Carter told The Associated Press. She previously won Oscars for Black Panther in 2018 and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever in 2023, becoming the first Black woman to win two Academy Awards. Carter is now a five-time nominee, surpassing Oscar-winning actor Viola Davis. She is tied with longtime collaborator Spike Lee and Morgan Freeman for the third-most nominations among Black creatives, behind the late Quincy Jones and Denzel Washington.
Gerwyn Davies treats the photographic portrait as a stage for disappearance in his ongoing body of work. The Sydney-based artist engineers elaborately costumed selves that gleam under studio lighting, swell into sculptural proportions, and refuse to reveal a face. What appears at first to be hypervisibility, sequins, vinyl, and candy-colored textiles, becomes a visual barricade. The body inside the costume is present, centered, and performing.
Fans noticed that Eleven's training outfit - a gray cropped sweatshirt and matching sweatpants layered under teeny shorts - looked remarkably like Josh Brolin's character's in The Goonies, leading many to suspect this was the inspiration. And they're right. "I loved referencing real fashion trends," says Parris, who took over the ST costume department by the third season. "It was a blip of a trend, [but] shorts-over-sweats was a thing. That happened."
"I just wanted to present an opportunity to see this character where everybody, at this point in the film, have seen Elphaba as the strong, fighting woman who is the Wicked Witch as someone who could actually, when on her own, be the opposite, when comfortable enough to be so," Erivo shared with Deadline at an Airbnb event hosted at a recreation of Elphie's retreat.
Thanks to Ava Byrd's fabulous costumes and Jeremy Letheule's hair designs and wigs, I found myself transported to 1940s New York where snappy dialog, moral ambiguity and unchecked ambition drive the action. Written by Mary Orr in 1946, The Wisdom of Eve became a successful Hollywood film starring Bette Davis in 1950 and went on to become the musical Applause! Applause!
It's astonishing the number of male actors who don't wear underwear, she said. I've had to go out and buy them pants not Calvin Klein or anything like that; I usually get them from Marks otherwise they try to hide themselves behind a chair looking marginally awkward. I think, For God's sake, if I was going to a fitting and trying on second-hand clothes I'd wear some pants'.
DanceSport International (DSI London) was originally founded as a dance studio in 1982 by Geoffrey Hearn and ballroom dancer Peggy Spencer MBE.

Stepping through the doors of the Fashion and Textile Museum at the moment feels like stepping through the back of a wardrobe into a land where the air smells faintly of lavender sachets and starched lace, and everyone looks ready to promenade along a gravel path. Here, corsets whisper secrets, petticoats swish in approval, and gentlemen's coats stand at attention, ready for their next close-up.
Wellington's extravagant World of WearableArt is back for 2025, including pieces by 85 finalists that showcase the some of today's most elaborate and fanciful costumes. One hundred designers from 17 countries competed for a prize pool of more than $200,000 New Zealand dollars across 25 awards. The competition culminates in an elaborate performance, with this year's top honor, known as the WOW Supreme Award, handed to design duo Dawn Mostow and Ben Gould.
When you're in a state of amorous delusion, everything is romantic, which is perhaps why Emerald Fennell uses Charli XCX's "everything is romantic" featuring Caroline Polachek to set the scene in the first teaser trailer for her adaptation of Wuthering Heights. Margot Robbie, playing Cathy, zones out reminiscing on tactile memories - hands kneading dough, a rippling back, a finger slipping into a fish's mouth - as she loses herself to the memories of Heathcliff, played here by a bearded and dirty Jacob Elordi.
Beyoncé's Emmy win for costume design on 'Beyoncé Bowl' signifies a cultural milestone, showcasing a masterclass in style and storytelling rooted in Black Southern culture.
At its core, The Handmaid's Tale's costume design is a matter of status. Each handmaid is given a red 'uniform' - a scarlet letter that distinguishes them as 'other' while making them easily identifiable should they attempt a futile escape.
