catsuit | Clothes on Film

With Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997), costume designer Deena Appel created one of the most iconic screen looks of all time. That is no overstatement; Austin Powers has been copied and homaged and wheeled out every year as a Halloween costume, with very little credit put Appel’s way. It is a rather sad indictment of how the industry works that, despite its importance, especially in a film such as Austin Powers, a costume designer will rarely see any kudos come their way. Awards? Well, you might have a chance if your film is set in Victorian England or Disney-verse, but other than that not so much. With this…

Costume Designer Lindy Hemming talks exclusively to Clothes on Film about her work on The Dark Knight Rises.

Christopher Nolan once again shows his appreciation for costume in this immensely satisfying end to the Dark Knight trilogy.

Some official images have surfaced for X-Men: First Class. The sixties costumes vibe is not excessive, however.

A satisfactory start to the summer blockbuster season.
