For the six Emmy contenders on our Meet the Experts: Costume Designers panel, there is no one set starting point in their creative processes. “It definitely depends on the project,” “Euphoria” costume designer Heidi Bivens says during our group discussion with Sharon Long (“The Great”), Donna Zakowska (“The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”), Zaldy (“RuPaul’s Drag Race“), Christine Bieselin Clark (“Star Trek: Picard”) and Laura Montgomery (“What We Do in the Shadows”). “If it’s contemporary, I like to do a lot of people-watching and definitely get ideas from real-life characters. It’s just so specific to the project.”
When she joined “Euphoria,” Bivens did a lot of people-watching outside high schools, waiting for when school would get out to see what kids were wearing. She also turned to where kids really live these days: social media. “I can do a deep dive and go down that wormhole of social media, so...

For most costume designers heading into the second season of a show, they get to build on the looks and palette established in the freshman installment, but Christine Bieselin Clark got to do the opposite. Season 2 of “Star Trek: Picard,” thanks to thanks to Q (John de Lancie), takes place in an alternate timeline — 2024 in Los Angeles, to be exact — in which Picard (Patrick Stewart) & Co. must race against time to save humanity against the Confederation. Needless to say, it’s definitely not the same energy as the hopeful and peaceful tenets of Starfleet Academy.
“Season 1 and Season 2 are like completely different shows visually. In Season 1, we really had a very warm, lovely approach to ‘Star Trek: Picard’ and Picard himself. And in this season, we begin with the optimism of the Starfleet, which I think is so true to the franchise and all of our characters from Season 1… and...

“Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom” and “Promising Young Woman” were among the film winners at the 23rd annual Costume Designers Guild Awards Tuesday night. TV winners included “The Queen’s Gambit” (Netflix) and the filmed version of “Hamilton” (Disney+).
Broadcast online, the awards celebrated the best in film, TV, and short-form costume design in eight categories that spanned fantasy, contemporary, and period works. Streamed live on Twitter, the virtual ceremony was hosted by Lana Condor (“To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before”).

“Star Trek: Picard” premiered on CBS All Access in 2020. Starring Patrick Stewart as the title Starfleet admiral, it takes place 20 years after the events of “Star Trek: Nemesis,” the 2002 feature film that was the final big-screen adventure for the cast of “The Next Generation.” Scroll down for our exclusive video interviews with top Emmy contenders from the show.
As the series begins, Picard is retired and jaded after Starfleet banned synthetic lifeforms due to a deadly incident on Mars. He also harbors anger and regret over Starfleet’s refusal to rescue Romulan citizens from a supernova. But he’s called back into action when he meets an advanced android (Isa Briones) who is the target of Romulan spies.

Here’s a dirty little secret about costume designers: They’re, by their own admission, rude. “I think costume designers are like the rudest people out there ever,” Christine Bieselin Clark (“Star Trek: Picard”) joked during Gold Derby’s Meet the Btl Experts: Costume Design panel (watch above). “We’re constantly in other people’s business. They’re like, ‘Why are you staring at me?’”
That’s because costume designers might often find more inspiration in life than in a costume house. “People are our biggest research as well, life itself. Sometimes I see the funniest looking people and I think, ‘Oh my God! If I tried to produce that character onscreen, people would look at me like I’m crazy,’” Johnetta Boone (“Yellowstone”) added during the panel, which also featured Sarah Evelyn (“Hollywood”), Leigh Leverett (“Patsy & Loretta”) and Marina Toybina (“The Masked Singer”). “But then you realize that’s...

With Oscar voting in progress, let's talk costume design. With Best Picture contenders hogging all the conversation, we remain ever hopeful that the guilds remember to look beyond the films as a whole to the specifics of their particular craft when they scribble down their nominations. One of the most influential costume designers working today is Michael Wilkinson who regularly pushes the envelope in terms of costume technology (see Tron Legacy) and I'm not talking about the miraculous cleavage feats of American Hustle which won Wilkinson a well-deserved Oscar nomination last year. This year you can even see the influence of his 300 costumes in those Maze Runner harnesses (Fun fact: Christine Bieselin Clark, one of the costume designers on that film, was once Wilkinson's assistant!)

With our first proper glimpse of the ‘life suit’ worn by Jaden and Will Smith in the latest trailer for After Earth released last week, we have put together a brief round up of sci-fi related suit posts at Clothes on Film. For specificity, we are saving the sharp lounge suits of Inception and the like for another time; these are space suits or similar – the kind of costume actors have to be zipped into.

In this abridged version of a feature originally published in Moviescope magazine in December 2010, Clothes on Film take an overview look at how to ‘read’ costume design.
Costume design remains one of the most misunderstood and underappreciated filmmaking arts. Far in excess of merely ‘dressing’ an actor for their role, costume design is discourse. A film can be read via costume; sometimes overtly, sometimes subtextually. Not just conspicuous sci-fi or period, but contemporary stories set within a familiar world in familiar attire. On screen even the most rudimentary item of clothing can take on meaning.
2010 was a boundary crossing year for costume. Beyond the typical crop of historical dramas, fantasy and comic book adaptations, all of which are commonly accepted as highly visible and emblematic forms of sartorial expression; there...

So, the Costume Designers Guild (Cdg) has served up their nominations for this year. Apart from falling short on numbers in a couple of categories, the line-up is predictably safe.
Excellence in Contemporary Film
Black Swan – Amy Westcott
Burlesque – Michael Kaplan
Inception – Jeffrey Kurland
The Social Network – Jacqueline West
Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps – Ellen Mirojnick
There has been recent hoopla in the press regarding Rodarte’s overall involvement with the costume design for Black Swan, though the Costume Designers Guild will be unlikely to run scared. Shouldn’t The Social Network strictly be in the Period category, however? Jacqueline West went to extraordinary lengths to ensure the film was historically accurate, something often harder to achieve when the setting is recent.

Seemingly on a par with Tron Legacy: the movie is the mechanising machine surrounding it. Yet apparently this is no simple case of ‘cash-in and run’, it never was. Disney grasped the mindset of Tron from the very beginning. The name means more than product; it is a lifestyle choice.
One might assume that Disney, the entertainment behemoth who continued financing Tron creator Steven Lisberger’s ambitious digital project in 1980 would have taken over the reigns and demanded a gamut of merchandise options to make Lucasfilm weep. Not so, claims Lisberger. There was surprisingly little compromise in their creative/fiscal balancing act:
There is a fairly unknown quote from Walt Disney. “I don’t make movies to make money; I make money to make movies.” One...

I recently got to travel to Los Angeles to a rather special day-long event. That event included a 20 minute sneak peak at Tron: Legacy (which many of you will now have seen at the various Tron Nights around the world) and the chance to meet some of the actors and film-makers behind this fabulous project! Since then, I’ve actually seen the completed movie twice, once at the IMAX and once at the UK Premiere of the movie. You can see my review here.
Since the movie is out a week today on 17th December, I thought it was time to bring you the final part of the Production Design presentations that I recorded in La.
The first of the pieces was an interview with Director, Joseph Kosinski where we talk about how he got involved in the project and how he used his computer game commercial background to create such a fine looking film.

Part 2 of our detailed look at the costumes in Tron Legacy. After examining the overall creation and construction of the light suits, we have now moved onto specific design elements for individual characters.
Garrett Hedlund as Sam Flynn
The only son of Kevin Flynn, Sam is 27 years old, daredevil, rebellious and haunted by the unexplained disappearance of his father. He is sucked into the Grid while following up a mysterious message apparently sent from inside his father’s old video games arcade.
Hedlund’s primary costume is a disc game suit. It was far and away the most difficult for associate costume designer Christine Bieselin Clark and her team to get light into and unsurprisingly it also ate the most PP3 9V battery life, lasting only 10 minutes per charge maximum. Entry to the suit was via asymmetric zip running the length of the spine and carefully integrated into the seam.

In Tron Legacy, the light suit exemplifies two key facets of the mythology: light, as in energy, and ‘disc’ – lifeblood of the wearer. This suit is a meticulously designed ‘second skin’ that integrates seamlessly into director Joseph Kosinski’s vision of the Tron story universe. Here we examine the design of the new light suit including background to its creation, construction, symbolism and application in Tron Legacy.
‘The Grid’ is such a heavily computer generated world that the light suit was considered a practical means of bringing this environment to life for actors. Moreover, to physically illuminate each suit in post-production would have been too expensive. Costume designers Michael Wilkinson, Christine Bieselin Clark and Neville Page (helmets) really wanted to recapture a sense of awe from the original film – the ‘how did they do that?’, as Christine terms it.

The full trailer for director Zach Snyder’s action fantasy Sucker Punch has arrived in all its steampunk, cutesy, fairytale, dragons and ass kicking glory. Despite its catch all mishmash, this is not going to be for everyone, that’s for sure. See for yourself Here
Sucker Punch takes place in a succession of alternate realities. Starting in our reality, specifically the 1950s, we follow ‘Baby Doll’ (Emily Browning), a teenage girl locked away inside a mental institution by her stepfather with only five days to break out before she is lobotomised.
As a figurative escape, Baby Doll creates a fantasy world where she and her inmate friends can flee; a hyperactive clutter of mystical creatures, Japanese, Great War and early 20th century industrial design. Lessons learned in the alternate world(s) can be carried over into real life, therefore aiding the girls’ escape. The story is an original idea...

Over the past few days, I’ve been completely immersed in all things Tron: Legacy. I was so lucky and got to go to Los Angeles and visit Michael Bay’s special effects house, Digital Domain, who are hard at work doing the finishing touches to the new Disney movie come alive with some of the best effects I’ve seen in any more come alive.
While we were there, we got to watch around 30 minutes of footage and meet and interview the director of Tron: Legacy, Joseph Kosinski, two of the cast, Olivia Wilde and Garrett Hedlund along with a mass of the production team who are simply awesome! All of them will have had a part in the images below. Daniel Simon – Vehicle Design, Christine Bieselin Clark – Costume Design, .
We also got to meet Steven Lisberger (Creator, Writer and Director of the original Tron) and producer, Justin Springer.
