Dracula

Grand Theft Auto V

Well done to Joe Kucharski for being used as a news source by Entertainment Weekly, and well done to Entertainment Weekly for pretty much copying his entire interview with costume designer Lyn Paolo and adding about five lines. Way to re-write guys.

Reign

More from Joe Kucharski writing at his site Tyranny of Style, here discussing the ‘contemporising’ of period costume design for new show Reign.

Only Lovers Left Alive

This romantic vampire drama film (come back) is not released in the UK until next February, but if Hello, Tailor’s analysis is anything to go it’ll be worth the wait. She touches on Bina Daigeler’s costume design, which already looks very impressive.
