Minisode: Missy Elliott 'The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly)' (1997) Apr 23, 2022

Show notes

Grab your Hefty bags, Fishies, 'cause it's time for us to show some RESPEK to one of the greatest music videos of all time: Missy Elliott's "The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly)," which came out 25 years ago this May. That garbage bag/Michelin man look that's burned in our minds was by June Ambrose (who also did our fave Belly). This was peak Hype Williams era, so we're blessed with his trademark fisheye lens which gloriously highlights Missy's iconic makeup (which was done by Billy B) and those Alain Mikli glasses. Enjoy this fun music minisode!

Costume Designer Melissa Walker Talks Pen15, Dollface, and The Industry Apr 08, 2022

Show notes

We're joined by Melissa Walker, costume designer for Pen15 and Dollface Season 2! We discuss her inspo and mood boards for all of Pen15's cringe-nostalgic Y2K looks, the evolution of the Dollface girls' personal style, and how the socio-economic nuance is subtly displayed throughout the wardrobes of both of her shows' characters. Melissa also talks about Land That Look, which helps costume designers create their own lines inspired by the work they do in film and TV, and how she prioritizes spotlighting small brands and indie designers in her work, plus, she drops a ton of insight into the costume design world. A must-listen for Pen15 and Dollface fans, and anyone interested or wanting to break into costume design. Tune in now, baby!

Fresh (2022) Apr 01, 2022

Show notes

We've got a wild card this week: Fresh, the new Hulu rom-com-turned-horror movie about a woman named Noa (Daisy Edgar-Jones) who has a meat-cute, ahem, with a man named Steve (our fave hunk Sebastian Stan) in a grocery store but he doesn't turn out to be the seemingly nice dude she thought he was. You wouldn't think there'd be a lot of looks, but in fact, there are! Including some smart choices with hidden meanings, courtesy of the film's costume designers Christina Flannery and Athena Theny.

Minisode: No Doubt 'Just a Girl' (1995) Mar 09, 2022

Show notes

For this week's mini music episode, we're taking a lil trip back to 1995 when "Just a Girl" by No Doubt made its debut! The video featured Gwen Stefani in all her badassery: Dickies pants with a DIY fabric stripe on the side, thrifted DIY bedazzled and iron-on crop tops, cholo initial belts...'90s youths (especially our fellow Socal babies) will get hit with a tidal wave of fashion nostalgia. What's cool is that Gwen styled herself and did her own makeup back in those days too! Speaking of, we also discuss Gwen's newly launched makeup brand, GXVE: https://www.sephora.com/brand/gxve-by-gwen-stefani

Show notes

Get ready for a road trip, Janet Jackson style! For this bite-sized episode, we discuss the music video for "You Want This," from Janet's self-titled 1993 album. Inspired by Russ Meyer's 1965 cult classic "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!" Miss Janet and her dancers rock crop tops and Ben Davis and Dickies work pants with the waistbands rolled down and do the butterfly on the ground, HELLO! 'Memba that move? We also discover a strange fun fact regarding Lori Loughlin's husband...he apparently was in this video (according to one news item) ? Can anyone confirm 'cause Marie does not believe that hunk is him... Plus, we give lots of love to Janet's longtime stylist Wayne Scot Lukas and choreographer Tina Landon.

Costume Designer Jeriana San Juan Talks "Halston" and Vintage Fashion Feb 20, 2022

Show notes

Costume designer Jeriana San Juan joins us on the pod to discuss her work on Netflix's limited series "Halston," of which she is nominated for a Costume Design Guild Award: Excellence in Period Television (and was also nominated for an Emmy last year). Jeriana nailed so many of Halston's trademark designs so beautifully, from his tie-dye chiffon caftans, backless halter dresses, and ultra suede trench dresses, to the stage-ready sequins for his muse, Liza Minnelli, and so much more.

Listen to her talk about recreating this stunning world of Halston (there were over 2000 costumes!), how she taught Ewan McGregor how to sew, drape and "move like a designer," all the Easter eggs she put in (and the ones she wanted to but was forbidden to, lol), and why kimonos are the gateway drug to collecting vintage fashion.
