Last Night in Soho’s Costume Designer Shares the Secret to Dressing Like a 1960s Bombshell
Image Source: UPI Media Anya Taylor-Joy continues crafting dangerous and mysterious characters in her new role as Sandie in Last Night in Soho. Costarring Thomasin McKenzie, Matt Smith, and Shadow and Bone‘s Jessie Mei Li, the film is best described as a feminist revenge thriller. Taylor-Joy’s Sandie is a naive femme fatale, desperate for her big break in 1965 Soho. Sandie plays foil to McKenzie’s character, Eloise, a fashion student in prepandemic London, who begins to relive Sandie’s disturbing memories as if they were her own. While Sandie inspires Eloise’s debut collection, personal style becomes a way for her to connect with — and study — her muse. Costume design by Odile Dicks-Mireaux illustrates Sandie and Eloise’s mirrored experiences between the...

In Sex Education series three, we get to see a softer side to Ruby, and while she embraces her vulnerabilities, her style becomes more colourful and disarming. As someone who doesn’t shy away from attention, Ruby is often seen wearing psychedelic florals and c...

Cruella de Vil walked so that Miranda Priestly could run — and she is absolutely one of the greatest fashion villains of all time. It’s no surprise that a queen of similar stature, Glenn Close, got it written into her 101 Dalmatians contract that Disney would let her keep her entire Cruella de Vil character wardrobe — how divine! Close sat down with Pete Davidson to chat about their most memorable projects for Variety‘s Actors on Actors series for Amazon Studios. “Did you take any of Cruella’s wardrobe?

Screen Style: The Movies and TV Shows Shaping Our Wardrobes This Year
It’s no secret that the stylish characters of our favourite films and TV series were the unexpected fashion influencers of 2020. In only 28 days, The Queen’s Gambit was Netflix’s most watched series to date, and that’s heavily in part due to Beth Harmon’s bombshell ’60s style.

The Queen’s Gambit: Anya Taylor-Joy Got to Keep Beth’s Costumes, and Can We Please Be Her?
The Queen’s Gambit is Netflix’s most watched series to date. Chess master Beth Harmon (played by Anya Taylor-Joy) captivated viewers with her wit, passion, and intensity, but it was her ’60s wardrobe designed and sourced by costumer Gabrielle Binder that gave the series its iconic element. Wonder where the costumes are now? Taylor-Joy stopped by The Late Show With Stephen Colbert to share how she was gifted all of her character’s outfits, her affinity with Beth Harmon, and why she sadly won’t be able to wear any of those gorgeous clothes. “When I first read the book, I was so in love with Beth, instantly”, Taylor-Joy told Colbert. “And I think people follow passion, so I felt impassioned by chess when I finished reading the book. However, tha...
The Serpent: How to Steal Monique’s Sultry and Bohemian ’70s Style
BBC’s new true-crime series The Serpent takes us on a journey of glamour, seduction, and murder. It follows the story of ’70s French serial killer Charles Sobhraj (played by Tahar Rahim) who goes by the name “Alain” and his menacing partner-in-crime girlfriend Marie-Andrée Leclerc (played by Jenna Coleman) who goes by “Monique.” While the pair prey on Western tourists traveling in Southeast Asia, Monique uses her charm and fashion sense to lure in unsuspecting victims — and although we absolutely condemn her predatory behaviour, we know exactly how to copy her sultry French-bohemian style. In the 1970s, the ideal fashion look included flared, high-waisted blue jeans or trousers secured with a wide belt. Oversize sunglasses were also very popular, as well...
Bridgerton’s Costume Designer Reveals How Dior and Chanel Inspired a Modern Regency Wardrobe
Bridgerton is a visual feast unlike any we’ve seen before. The decadent Netflix period drama created by Shondaland is based on the first book in the Bridgerton series of romance novels by Julia Quinn, The Duke and I. The costuming, much like the series itself, is a completely fresh take on what you would expect from the Regency era — filled with colour, texture, and scandal — and POPSUGAR spoke to costume designer Ellen Mirojnick about how she created a Regency wardrobe that we wish we could wear today. “I love Portia’s character so much because she’s somewhat of a cross between Elizabeth Taylor and Joan Collins in a Regency time that we’re making modern.” Mirojnick designed the gorgeous gowns on Bridgerton by layering modern fabrics and colorations over...
The Queen’s Gambit: How to Dress Like Grandmaster and ’60s Babe Beth Harmon

Princess Diana’s original ivory silk wedding dress worn at Buckingham Palace on July 29, 1981, was designed by Elizabeth and David Emanuel.
