- 1:40It was so fun that this season was, by far my favorite.
- 1:43I love how dark it got how emotional it was, how powerful
- 1:47it was, and I'm just counting down the days until season 5
- 1:50comes out honestly. But until then, let's talk about
- 1:55season 4, let's go behind a wardrobe dive into the upside
- 1:59down. Let's start with a summary,

- 5:00I'm so excited to finally talk to you.
- 5:02We've been trying to meet up since the third season of
- 5:06stranger things. It's been a long time coming.
- 5:08It has been a long time coming and thank you for being so
- 5:10gracious. And and asking me, I'm happy to
- 5:12be a part of it. Of course, I'm so excited, okay.
- 5:16The things season 4 was so good. My favorite season, for sure it
- 5:21was dark, it was emotional as powerful, the 80s Vibes were
- 5:25stronger than ever. It just was giving everything
- 5:28and you even topped your costumes from season three.
- 5:32So, congratulations. It's been a whirlwind.
- 5:36That's a nice compliment. Thank you.
- 5:37It was a hard season because of covid, especially, so there's a
- 5:41lot of challenges and I was hoping we could top season 3.
- 5:44So thank you for saying that right huh.
- 5:46Long, were you guys on season four?
- 5:48Must have been a long time. Yeah.
- 5:51In total, it was about two years because there was a good six
- 5:55months break that we had with covid.
- 5:57So I think, yeah. It was like, basically two years
- 6:01with a break. Yeah, it's crazy.
- 6:03Josh. Well, it's season, four was all
- 6:06about transition. You went through a lot.
- 6:09The crew went through a lot and a character's went through a
- 6:12lot. We now have our characters being
- 6:15split between three different Kayson's Hawkins, California and
- 6:19Russia. So just to start, what was this
- 6:23challenge? Like was exciting.
- 6:24Was it difficult to kind of split your costume mind in three
- 6:27different directions? How did you tackle this?
- 6:30Yeah, it was a big undertaking that that I think if I would
- 6:34have, if this would have been my first season I would have been
- 6:36even more daunted. Right, I started on season 3.
- 6:40And so with this season, luckily I was a little bit more familiar
- 6:44with the actors and the show Runners and Just the vibe of the
- 6:47show and so I was able to kind of compartmentalize it and
- 6:51develop color palettes and specifics within each location
- 6:56so that it would be a quick way for the audience to know where
- 6:58we're not that they wouldn't know.
- 7:00But just an even quicker, like, obvious way of knowing where
- 7:03they were, when we'd see these people in different areas.
- 7:06So, when we ended up starting, I think we started with episode
- 7:10three and four really, we kind of we block shoot it.
- 7:13So you do two episodes at once and we were out of order.
- 7:16And covid happened. And then we were really kind of
- 7:18all over the place, trying to get as much done.
- 7:21So it's a major Whiplash on that one major.
- 7:24So that's a lot for my team and I to kind of like follow and
- 7:28track but that also gives you more time to prepare for some
- 7:32outfits, you know. So in some instances, it was
- 7:36printing Fabric or weaving sweaters, for the Russia stuff.
- 7:42For example, when we first started prep pre covid, they
- 7:46sent me. In my supervisor, over to Poland
- 7:48because there's a great costume house out there called hero
- 7:51costume. And they did have some like
- 7:54original Russian uniforms but not enough.
- 7:58So we asked them to make them for us and they were able to do
- 8:01that. So the prep starts, you know,
- 8:04ahead of time, and then it can carry through for months until,
- 8:08for example, until those Russian uniforms were on camera.
- 8:10So it's a lot. But you just got to, like, put
- 8:13your head in the sand or put your head down to speak and then
- 8:15just go for it. So much and I had it really
- 8:19speaks to The Testament of how incredible your crew was as
- 8:22well. I mean, this, there's a lot
- 8:23happening in this season and it came together so seamlessly,
- 8:27you'd have no idea that you all had the challenges that were
- 8:30presented to you and other costume design teams.
- 8:33Absolutely. I mean, that really threw a
- 8:35wrench into the system. And then having Crews split up
- 8:38in three different areas, you know, like Georgia for Hawkins,
- 8:41New, Mexico, for California, and Lithuania for Russia.
- 8:44So I could have done it without such a good.
- 8:46Good team and everybody in each location worked so hard.
- 8:49So I'm so grateful for all their help.
- 8:51That's insane. Lots of FaceTime calls, I
- 8:53assume, well, you and I love California.
- 9:00So let's dive into California first.
- 9:03It was so fun when I originally found out that the Hawkins crew
- 9:06is moving to California, I was like this is perfect excited to
- 9:09see it. Hmm.
- 9:11I love the colors of their outfits, very highlighter.
- 9:14Ask Mike comes Is it and he's in his best like LAX, Taurus
- 9:19outfit, we have Jonathan's new friend Argyle who Flawless, love
- 9:25him. So, talk to me a little bit
- 9:27about design, a costumes for the now, California location.
- 9:31Yeah, so it's Lenora Hills, which is a fictional spot, but
- 9:35we knew that it was sort of meant to be kind of like San
- 9:38Bernardino area. And I was actually where I'm
- 9:40from, I'm from Marietta California, which is sort of,
- 9:45you know, with in Riverside County.
- 9:46So that part was kind of familiar and that's so funny.
- 9:50Yeah, so I found a bunch of yearbooks from the region and
- 9:54signed up for classmates.com and you know, you can tell so much
- 9:58about a person with a head shot or, you know, a yearbook photo
- 10:01because you can see how they do their makeup and their hair and
- 10:03you can tell at least half of what their outfit is.
- 10:06So you know, it just showed a good selection and a good
- 10:09variety of people. But what I wanted to make sure
- 10:11we did for California but we sort of take away any plaid.
- 10:13The felt so Hawkins and only keep it honest.
- 10:16Then and we'll really, you know, it was closing them.
- 10:21So you won't really see plaid on anybody in California and you
- 10:25know the angles of the close, the colors are brighter and
- 10:28sharper. It's just a little more
- 10:30fashion-forward, just so it stands out more from Hawkins and
- 10:34we're still in 86, and it's really like 87, and beyond that
- 10:38things. Get super Neon.
- 10:39So it was just just about to be neon like preemie on and there's
- 10:44a few shoulder pads but nothing too big.
- 10:46Big. Nothing too crazy just because
- 10:48that, it's putting your feet in the 80s water.
- 10:51It was funny to do those like crazy patterns and and just a
- 10:55little bit more of a fashionable silhouette.
- 10:57That was so cool. It's so interesting to they
- 10:59mentioned that will and 11 or still wearing plaid because to
- 11:02me they are kind of still stuck in.
- 11:04They've had traumatic lives and Hawkins so it's no wonder that
- 11:08they're still stuck in there Hawkins.
- 11:09Garbs a little bit. Definitely an elevens, you know,
- 11:13hand-me-downs now at this point because maybe she did.
- 11:16Some all clothes with her but Max isn't there to help her, you
- 11:20know, figure out how to wear clothes the same way.
- 11:22So it's either that you always would have given her or stuff
- 11:25that will or Jonathan had grown out of.
- 11:28So it should feel like a mix of closets.
- 11:32The California things actually a pretty emotional and sad but
- 11:35there's some really bright exciting moments.
- 11:37Like, for example, the roller rink seen obsessed with it.
- 11:41I mean, we all saw in the trailer.
- 11:42We were just ready to go. Read that in the script.
- 11:47I got so excited to get to do a roller rink in the 80s.
- 11:50I mean, that's right I mean, I haven't gone roller skating
- 11:55forever but I was ready to go. Rent some skates.
- 11:59I probably would end badly but like the idea, sounds good.
- 12:02We would skate at lunch not every time.
- 12:03But you know, if there was when there was a lunch break and if
- 12:06someone had time, we'd use some of their rental skates through,
- 12:09we're really good. I love what people are like
- 12:13roller skating backwards is kind of showing everyone up for no
- 12:16reason. Like, please don't do that.
- 12:18What's wrong with you? Like an accident?
- 12:20You're right. So let's dive into these
- 12:23costumes. It was so fun.
- 12:24Like I said, some darker moments but I love the Silhouettes, two
- 12:28colors, combined with that Tarzan, Boy, soundtrack.
- 12:31I mean, addicted to that song. Never thought I would be, how
- 12:36did you come up with these looks?
- 12:38Well, we're very lucky that because we had time and knew
- 12:41that the roller rink scene was coming up but we didn't end up
- 12:44going to Albuquerque till later in the schedule.
- 12:46There's There was a moment where we were going to go back and
- 12:48forth to Albuquerque to shoot New Mexico.
- 12:50Yeah to shoot in New Mexico for California, but we saved that
- 12:54till the end of the season. So as my Shoppers and I were
- 12:58pulling clothes, we would set aside stuff that felt specific
- 13:01to the roller rink. So if it was, you know, like
- 13:04stretchy Lycra pants or shiny Fabrics that we knew would catch
- 13:08the Light really well. We were able to put that aside
- 13:10throughout the season so we had a good, you know, year and a
- 13:13half to like curate really good roller rink close And we're
- 13:17lucky in that we have that prep time to find the real peace to.
- 13:19So nearly everything here is like unique vintage.
- 13:22I shouldn't say unique it is unique at this point because not
- 13:25a lot of that is still around but it's legit pieces is kind of
- 13:28what I'm saying, you know, it's like all real from the 80s and
- 13:32like the girl in read you know, that red set.
- 13:34It's like this incredible two-piece set and so often you
- 13:38see a, you know, a top that looks like it should have a
- 13:40matching skirt or a pant and vice versa.
- 13:43So it's such a dream when you find a set that's still
- 13:45together, and we were able to kind of make sure those were
- 13:48front and center, because we wanted to show that off.
- 13:50There's some pieces from Etsy and eBay, that felt super like
- 13:53late 70s, early 80s, just to kind of push the Glory Days of
- 13:57roller rink. And, yeah, just like thinking on
- 14:00knowing it would be dark with light that would strobe.
- 14:02So shiny Fabrics, things that would reflect metallics, we had
- 14:06so much fun dressing, the stunt people that are around 11:00
- 14:09when she is sort of in that circle with Angela That's all
- 14:13stuff players. And so that was fun because it
- 14:15was We make sure that the outfit would function well for them
- 14:19because they're skating doing tricks and stuff.
- 14:20So we just had the best time fitting Roller Rink in New
- 14:23Mexico. So fun.
- 14:25I can imagine. I'm just like you said so fun.
- 14:29I love this scene. I'm and every time you watch it,
- 14:31you see some different costume that you didn't see the first
- 14:34time which is what are the fun. And like the there's a picture
- 14:38that we're looking at in the person in the on the top right
- 14:41photo. If you go towards the back is
- 14:43like a letterman jacket. So we are imagining that that
- 14:46That's the Letterman jacket. We built a couple for Lenora.
- 14:49Hi, you know, we don't really ever see that or showcase it but
- 14:53there would be, you know, kids from high school in town.
- 14:55So we were able to make some of those jackets ahead of time and
- 14:57sprinkle them through the high school and then, of course,
- 14:59they'd be going skating. So, there's so many little
- 15:02details within each frame that if you do pause and kind of take
- 15:04a look, you'll find something exciting and interesting, but so
- 15:09exciting and just while we're on the subject real quickly.
- 15:13And something I've been talking about lately, it's been In
- 15:16constant as I inhale costume designers can and practice.
- 15:20More sustainable efforts is that do feel like that's really with
- 15:23shopping. A lot of these vintage looks and
- 15:25trying to reuse, looks, instead of creating new ones.
- 15:28Yes, I think that's important and I'm glad that we're talking
- 15:31about it more. Because with with period,
- 15:33fashion, with vintage, clothing and period fashion.
- 15:36It's really nice to be able to use stuff that already exists
- 15:38because it's the real thing with contemporary, it can feel a
- 15:41little, you know, so mass-produced and fashion and so
- 15:44fast, now that it's being cranked out and thrown in stores
- 15:48and then so you get an approval on something.
- 15:50You need a multiple for. If you go back to get it's
- 15:52already gone. So it's speeding up quicker and
- 15:55it's making it harder for contemporary.
- 15:57So with period stuff it's nice to use the real thing and it's
- 16:00important to kind of keep keep it real because it's true to the
- 16:04period but then it's also important to like protect our
- 16:06environment you know and not recreate if you don't have to.
- 16:10So it's really nice that we're focusing on that and I do see a
- 16:12shift within Productions and within costume departments where
- 16:16we're trying. To utilize dead stock or, you
- 16:19know, we recycle things more. I think it's important for
- 16:22contemporary shows people should be repeating clothing because
- 16:25you're seeing that in your own life.
- 16:27You don't wear One Thing Once. Usually, you know, you were
- 16:30things multiple times. So it just makes it more real if
- 16:33we keep reusing. So I think it's important and
- 16:35I'm glad that sort of a shift that we're seeing great.
- 16:38Well yeah, thank you for saying that.
- 16:40And I really think it's so important that everyone's
- 16:41listening because we do have a lot of costume, designers and
- 16:44costume Crews listening. Such an important issue that
- 16:47everyone needs to have on top of mind.
- 16:49Yeah, something else. That's on top of mine is
- 16:52elevens. Look at for good part of
- 16:55California scenes. I love it.
- 16:57Because like you mentioned Max isn't here to help 11 get
- 17:01dressed. So to me this look is so
- 17:04perfectly, not perfect, it makes so much sense how she's layering
- 17:08this reminds me of like the vintagy like cups.
- 17:13You would put like a soda in that like a frog, right?
- 17:18And she has a milkshake thrown on her.
- 17:20So as soon as I saw this I was like oh I got asked a me about
- 17:23that. You know that there's a story
- 17:24behind this dress so definitely is.
- 17:27And that dress is based off of a real dress from the 80s.
- 17:29But when we reprinted the fabric because we knew we need a lot of
- 17:33multiples, right? And we I mean there's subtle
- 17:36details and that the squiggle lines on top of the colorful
- 17:39lines are yellow and pink and then it's sort of like adjusted.
- 17:43So it's on the top left and the bottom right of this.
- 17:46This kind of Four Square panel of the front and the back of the
- 17:48dress. So, we matched our patterns
- 17:50because we, you know, printed the fabric and we were able to
- 17:52make matching multiples, but what's also important in
- 17:54matching is the stain and the milkshake.
- 17:57So you know, you've got a possible on the screen it but
- 18:01yeah, so we broke it down. Knowing that there would be
- 18:04Millie wearing it. There would be a photo double
- 18:05wearing it. There would be a stunt person
- 18:07wearing it, there might even be like a stunt skate person
- 18:10wearing it. You know, you kind of have to
- 18:11plan ahead before, you know, for sure what you need.
- 18:13So I think we built 12 dresses. And then are Anthony, so bought
- 18:18a milkshake for us, like I suppose Fort meant.
- 18:21You know, we tried chocolate vanilla and strawberry and it
- 18:25felt like the chocolate kind of made the most sense.
- 18:27And we really just like physically were like, well, what
- 18:30will this look like. So, we put it on a dress form
- 18:32that we covered in plastic and through the milkshake on the
- 18:35dress and it was the first try and it looked good and we got
- 18:39approval from the Decker brothers and they're like yeah,
- 18:41this is great. So that's what it should look
- 18:43like. So then we've got, you know,
- 18:45like a milkshake stain. And then you have to kind of go
- 18:48backwards and then paint it in for all the dresses where it
- 18:51would be after the scene. And what's confusing is, you
- 18:54actually see her get thrown, you know, milkshakes actually thrown
- 18:57on her in the show, right in the moment so that we have that
- 19:01action. But any time previous to that is
- 19:04the painted rock, Shake dress on anybody.
- 19:07That is not hurt, really more the actual real, my brain, you
- 19:11know, it's a lot, you know, somebody would have done it and
- 19:14somehow it doesn't, even though it was like, You know, milkshake
- 19:17Dairy it. Like like dried In the Heat of
- 19:20Albuquerque and then just was just saying like, there's no
- 19:23smell. There was no gross.
- 19:25It was just like, pigment on the dress and so, yeah, that's kind
- 19:29of how you achieve that, I guess.
- 19:31But that's an insane story. I just can't even believe it.
- 19:34It's such a like simple concept people listening to this price I
- 19:37think but no this is such prime one or more complicated.
- 19:40Looks of the entire series. I said yeah.
- 19:43And it's just like in order to get it right.
- 19:45Let's just see what it looks like.
- 19:46Sometimes you don't have time and TV to get to do that.
- 19:48So we're lucky that we had time to set up a space to throw the
- 19:51milkshake to painted in. Sometimes you'll just have to
- 19:53like imagine, okay, this might be it then you just paint it
- 19:56real quick or, you know, there's other ways faster but we had the
- 19:59time to do it this way. Luckily.
- 20:01Oh man, but the challenge is kept on Rolling In For You in
- 20:05season 3. There's a few Russian uniforms I
- 20:08would say. But season 4, we go to Russia,
- 20:13allegedly, and it looks so real. And So beautifully done.
- 20:17You know it's hauntingly beautiful.
- 20:19I would say so, how did you approach creating specially the
- 20:22uniforms for all the Russian soldiers?
- 20:25Yeah, a most are real. Especially for the soldiers.
- 20:29The prisoners are a lot of those were made for us.
- 20:33So our prep started in Poland and that's where we use hero
- 20:37costume to build the multiples. And it was a really like,
- 20:41durable, twill fabric that is over died to have that dark
- 20:45indigo. Our, which is what it would have
- 20:47been. But some of them sprinkled in
- 20:49within some of these prisoners were the real uniforms, which
- 20:52had all their color leached out, somewhere kind of a gray tone.
- 20:55Some actually had, you know, original dirt and possibly, even
- 20:59blood stains on them. It was pretty pretty real the
- 21:02actual aging of the real ones. And so we wanted to break those
- 21:05down to match, and that was something that takes 40 to 50
- 21:08years, right? And you have your hours times to
- 21:12break them down if you have left last-minute.
- 21:14Casting. So we had Really, really
- 21:17talented breakdown artists. Helping us in Lithuania with
- 21:19that. But yeah, it like for example,
- 21:22the picture that we're looking at on the top left, David Harbor
- 21:25has a prisoner hat and that's a real prisoner hat and mixed with
- 21:29a newly remade, prisoner uniform and Shawn Levy had the idea to
- 21:35put on his patch. If you look closely, it says
- 21:37American in Cyrillic, everybody would have had, you know, like a
- 21:42maybe their last name or some kind of code on their jacket.
- 21:46But instead of giving him something that would have been
- 21:49someone else's, they would have made one specific to him, you
- 21:52know, they never noticed that. Yeah.
- 21:55If you look real closely, it says American and Cyrillic, I
- 21:58love it was still fighting details in the show, all these
- 22:01months later. Yeah and I mean when you see
- 22:05these photos like with it with a set in the makeup and the hair
- 22:08like when it all comes together, it is pretty beautiful in a
- 22:10dirty way. I cannot imagine the feeling of
- 22:14your crew member when I saw like legit.
- 22:16What the government's? Well, you know, it's crazy, the
- 22:20background artists, you know, the people that are like
- 22:23standing in frame behind the actors are in like, cold hard
- 22:29leather boots. They're putting on these
- 22:31uniforms and they are so tough. They looked like, prisoners,
- 22:34they had like, you know, there's just real European faces.
- 22:37They looked so good and they were so chill.
- 22:38I was like, aren't you freezing? And they're like, no, they're
- 22:40used to it, they're from a convenient, daunted by the blood
- 22:45at all. I love this story.
- 22:49I heard it from you for we did another project together a
- 22:53couple weeks ago. And when I heard that I was
- 22:55ready to grab the microphone. I could talk about this part
- 22:58forever. Something else I could talk
- 23:02about forever, Winona Ryder, playing Choice buyers.
- 23:05I just love her. I just have to ask.
- 23:08Was it like designing costumes for Winona Ryder?
- 23:11It's amazing. She's a legend.
- 23:13You know, she is such an icon and she's In this role is Joyce,
- 23:17and it was nice meeting her in season 3, because she helps
- 23:20guide me in the way that like, this is how Joyce would wear
- 23:23clothes and this is why she would wear them the way she
- 23:25does. And it's not about fashion, you
- 23:27know, it's she's a mother. She's concerned for kids.
- 23:30She's working hard to stay afloat as a single mother, so
- 23:35it's great to dress her and she's so awesome in early on,
- 23:38she brought in some of her original genes that were genes
- 23:40from her parents, that he wanted to wear in some of the scenes.
- 23:44And it's hard because a lot of times after us, Photo doubled.
- 23:47So we needed multiples, you know, and they were these really
- 23:49beautiful unique denim. Denim jeans so early on, we were
- 23:52able to use a couple pairs when it was a very fast seen.
- 23:55But then if there was a scene that we use them on later, we'd
- 23:59match the multiple as best we could for a photo devil or a
- 24:02stunt person so that she could use the real vintage ones.
- 24:05So it's been such a treat to work with her and she's amazing.
- 24:08I love that story and you bring up something else I want to ask.
- 24:11How collaborative is stranger things.
- 24:13Do you find yourself working with the actors and actresses?
- 24:16A lot when looking into their costumes, I do, and I think
- 24:20coming in on season, 3 by then, these people are, you know, know
- 24:24the actors the best are the, you know, the actors know that
- 24:26characters the best. So, I really relied on them to
- 24:30tell me what feels right for this character and even still
- 24:33especially with meili as 11. Well, it feels like 11 and
- 24:37sometimes we were like, I don't know.
- 24:38In a good way though, you know, right.
- 24:41Because she doesn't know. And so there was a moment where
- 24:44she, I think I told the story already too but She came on the
- 24:46set. We were like, how do you feel?
- 24:48She's like, not like 11:00, but I think that's good because
- 24:50she's the out of place. She's not in Hawkins, she's in a
- 24:53new school. Would I wear this outfit?
- 24:55You know, is a good question. That's something.
- 24:57She should be asking as 11 because the 11 doesn't know
- 24:59either. So right, it's super
- 25:01collaborative and I love having those conversations with the
- 25:03actors. It's such a yours.
- 25:05This show is unique to and since a lot of these actors have grown
- 25:09up with the show, which is mind-blowing, I know to see them
- 25:14grow is. I mean, Do you watch them grow?
- 25:17And you see them? You can these amazing adults,
- 25:18which is nice. But then you also watch them
- 25:20gonna like, shoot how much more length is in?
- 25:22Those pants? What's in the inside?
- 25:27You know, but we always make it work.
- 25:30Yeah. Someone who's really made it
- 25:35work. I would say Joseph Quinn as
- 25:38Eddie Munson who is taking over the world since the show's come
- 25:41out. I mean admittedly.
- 25:43I'm obsessed with him too. Yeah.
- 25:46Way that sort of transformed this role.
- 25:48It's so good. So first I have to ask you about
- 25:52the story behind the hellfire club shirt and then I just want
- 25:55to talk about designing Eddie Munson's costumes in general.
- 25:59Well like you said, he transformed, you know, I saw him
- 26:02with my crew. We were in the parking lot, one
- 26:04day at screen gems. Where we shoot this in Atlanta
- 26:06and we were like, who's walking towards us?
- 26:07Who's waving at us? Who is that?
- 26:09You know, like, it was joke in but we didn't recognize him
- 26:12because with the with the wig and the outfit and the attitude,
- 26:14he'd become such a different person.
- 26:16You see him outside of that, it was like, who is that?
- 26:18But it was, it was really fun to start with the hellfire club
- 26:22shirt. That was something that was
- 26:23scripted, that it would be assured.
- 26:24That looked like the kids had made it themselves as a group.
- 26:28And so, there were a few iterations of it.
- 26:31And it was between we ended up kind of narrowing into two
- 26:35different designs between the production designers artists,
- 26:38and then a graphic artists that I was using and it was so
- 26:42important to their death for brothers to just get it, right?
- 26:44So there was quite a few, a sort of like, Revisions of it.
- 26:48And ultimately I think that this one was chosen because it just
- 26:51does look like kind of hand-drawn and it's super
- 26:55influence by real D&D kids from the 80s.
- 26:57I've got some great images of the bunch of like science club
- 27:00and d and d clubs. A lot of the kids were in, you
- 27:04know, baseball tee shirts and we knew that white would help below
- 27:08go stand out and then the black sleeves just felt like Eddie and
- 27:11like kind of the D&D club would pick black and white.
- 27:14So we went with that combo. We had tried.
- 27:16Other way where it was black with white sleeves but you
- 27:18wanted it to stand out so that you can see the dirt as he ages
- 27:21throughout the you know Season or as he gets dirtier than
- 27:24throughout the season not ages but I get what you mean so that
- 27:30was important to do and then, you know, the layers upon it, I
- 27:32knew I wanted to do like a leather jacket with a cut-off
- 27:35vest. And the vest is so good and it's
- 27:38an original Levi's, like blanket line trucker jacket with the
- 27:41sleeves ripped off and because aging is so good.
- 27:45It's so hard to read. Create that.
- 27:46So we spent many times on eBay, Etsy, trying to find multiples
- 27:50that we could at least sort of Leach the color out if we needed
- 27:53to to match the Aging, right? So, I'm sure that now, a lot of
- 27:56people have found multiples online to repeat, but at the
- 28:00time there was a few that we're able to, you know, be purchased.
- 28:04And so there's sort of like one hero hero.
- 28:06But within that there is about six, five to six others that are
- 28:09used between him or a floater double or a stunt double or joke
- 28:12earring, when he's Steve Wright, who also wears it.
- 28:15So and Another covid problem. You couldn't really share
- 28:18clothes, right? So uh yeah version and then they
- 28:21had like a dry and a wet and there's a lot of that is
- 28:26involved in it. And then you know the little
- 28:27details like we're looking at a photo of the leather jacket
- 28:30where you can see the chain over the zipper.
- 28:32Yeah, I thought someone do that. It was like someone's jacket had
- 28:36clearly like not worked anymore. The zipper wouldn't work.
- 28:38And so they put this metal chain in there and that's like it's
- 28:42thick leather and it was something I'm sure my breakdown
- 28:45artist was probably Like do I have to do this?
- 28:47But look at you you know, and it's rare moments like this
- 28:50exact shot you know, which is so cool.
- 28:52Joe looks so cool and then you see that hard work.
- 28:55So the littlest detail you think all you, no one will ever see it
- 28:59but then you've got this photo where everyone can see it.
- 29:01So it's kind of nice when you hold to your guns and get those
- 29:03details in there, right? It paid off.
- 29:05So then how do you decide on? You know, he really personalizes
- 29:08his jacket, how do you decide on?
- 29:10Like the band's represented as that more of a script thing?
- 29:13Or were you listening to some metal music and you're like,
- 29:16Because d.o.a. chose the deal. Sure, on the back of his jacket.
- 29:21Because in a lot of my research of like metal kids, there was
- 29:25tons of video and it was huge. And it was, you know, this
- 29:27Wizard metal, that these kids were listening to.
- 29:29Yeah, the graphic artist Trevor Gerard who did hellfire club
- 29:33logo. Also helped me because I was, I
- 29:34would he also listens of this band.
- 29:36So he kind of was like, here's a good group of bands.
- 29:39That would also be people even if they're listening to deal,
- 29:41you're probably listening to all these fans.
- 29:43Right? So see what we could find.
- 29:45We were able to find a lot of Of original Judas, Priest, enamel
- 29:48pins. And we recreated the wasp in
- 29:50because I think there's only one of those.
- 29:52Wow, I think we've got Mercyful Fate on there.
- 29:54We've got the except on their Motorhead Megadeth Iron Maiden,
- 29:57so it all kind of. Yes, I was listening to it but
- 30:00also I didn't want to do it wrong.
- 30:01So I had a few people tell me like, okay, that might be not
- 30:04quite the band, but this one would be.
- 30:06So it was definitely like conferred before it was all on
- 30:10there, right? Because Eddie wouldn't listen to
- 30:12a band that was not cool. So you have to really Are your
- 30:16opinions on that genre? For sure?
- 30:20Before I continue I didn't even show you my phone case, that's
- 30:23hellfire club saying out. So you know that my nerding out
- 30:26is authentic, it's all right, so I'm excited to talk about Sadie
- 30:34sink killed it. The season.
- 30:36I mean, she was incredible and I'm like, a newly converted Max
- 30:42fan to likes. I just loved what she did in the
- 30:44season. It was so good.
- 30:46I have some theories about her. Look you could tell me if I'm
- 30:49right or not close is she wearing his blue bright blue
- 30:54looks so she could kind of stand out and upside down because
- 30:57unfortunately Max spends a lot of time upside down compared to
- 31:00these other character. It's right.
- 31:04I mean, the outfit was approved before we kind of knew about the
- 31:10hellscape and we're looking at a picture of the bottom, right?
- 31:13Where it's really red and really dark.
- 31:16And so I that came after the outfit was approved and I'm so
- 31:20glad and lucky it worked out that way because I think if we
- 31:22had put her in Darker close it really would have been harder to
- 31:25not only see her but then also to show all the blood and the
- 31:28guck and the goop that happens down there.
- 31:30So he knew that 11 would be there and the all white outfit
- 31:34was really cool. I'm excited for that too.
- 31:36But it kind of just worked out in one of those Kismet ways that
- 31:39it was meant to be this outfit in that hellscape region, so to
- 31:44speak. So then, what was I Dia them
- 31:46behind Max's costume because it really works.
- 31:50I is she's a little bit, a character harder to read which I
- 31:53really think is the point. Yeah, it is.
- 31:56And this felt like pieces that she would have had from say
- 32:00California that she would have brought out to Hawkins, because
- 32:02they're a little brighter, right?
- 32:03And right. And it's also, it's a baggy or
- 32:05sweatshirt and she's while she's in mourning, it's not as dark as
- 32:09you would anticipate. It becomes a little bit darker
- 32:11later, but it definitely kind of swallows her up and is sort of
- 32:15like a coverage. Just To hide herself, you know,
- 32:17it's sort of, like she wants to be receding into her, you know,
- 32:21morning in a quiet way. But the outfits, not very quiet,
- 32:24but I feel like it'll work out. I mean, it's all custom-made and
- 32:28aside from the jeans, but we made the shirt and the hoodie,
- 32:30or the sweatshirt. And I think it just kind of
- 32:34feels like her sunny California version of herself, but she's
- 32:38inside tortured and sad and really upset about her brother
- 32:41dying, right? That's so complex.
- 32:43Actually, and I love the way you described because it makes all
- 32:47sense. Now in my head, she's trying to
- 32:49cover up, but maybe she's using those California colors to, like
- 32:53make things not feel as dark even though they're pretty dark.
- 33:01So interesting, one person I was talking to on the internet,
- 33:07brought this up and I can't stop seeing it.
- 33:09Now, I love it. Seeing our Hawkins crew, head
- 33:12into the upside down to fight vecna super badass when he got
- 33:16To their battle armor. Their kind of give me like
- 33:19low-key Lost. Boys energy, is that like a that
- 33:23I pick up on something? Or is that just the best that's
- 33:26ever know for sure. I think that was in the script
- 33:29to it was like they've dressed up.
- 33:31They put on this battle gear. Allah Red Dawn you know like and
- 33:34it worked out perfectly. So Dustin in the hood with the
- 33:38bandana, you know, it's the bandana that's camouflage which
- 33:41is actually the one that Lucas keeps wearing over his head.
- 33:44Oh yeah. I don't really know that if
- 33:47anybody had picked up on that, I'm sure there are some fans
- 33:49that noticed, but now now I can't see it.
- 33:51Like first, I wanted to add, you know, some more Pops of brighter
- 33:57colors. I think we try to read one but
- 33:59it just seems to like, in your face.
- 34:01And so, we were like, well, why wouldn't he borrow Lucas's?
- 34:03You know. And so it's Lucas's headband now
- 34:06on Dustin, but that was the thing that Patrick Swayze did in
- 34:09the movie where he had put a headband over a hoodie.
- 34:12So we certainly took influence from those movies.
- 34:15Those great 80s. Is I love it, especially on Maya
- 34:19Hawks cash. We can call this piece.
- 34:24Why are these hats called little like a paratrooper Beret?
- 34:27So two separate. Don't know why.
- 34:30I screamed everything last poised to me when I saw that.
- 34:37I was like, yeah, that's the piece.
- 34:39Yeah, anyway, she's gone shopping with everybody there in
- 34:43a hurry to find gear, but that doesn't stop her from like
- 34:46Looking cute and getting a cute little Beret.
- 34:48Right? And I mean, they might think
- 34:50this might be the end or life. Anyways, so my zombie go out as
- 34:53badasses. Well, we're in the upside down.
- 35:01There's a lot of as we were talking about.
- 35:04There's a lot of aging and distressing that happens to
- 35:06these characters specially when turned upside down.
- 35:09How did you, how do you work on that in the costumes?
- 35:12Because I'm sure part of its also VFX.
- 35:14But then part of it, The costumes as well.
- 35:17Yeah, for sure. A good example is like a lot of
- 35:20these flak vests that are on them, are legit to the period.
- 35:24So they're already worn in and distressed Steve's bomber
- 35:28jacket. The brown leather was already
- 35:30pretty distressed to but we added a bunch of patches and it
- 35:33was fun to get to work with Joe carry on that because they're
- 35:35custom-made patches and they all have some specific personalized
- 35:41patches because they asked him like do you have a favorite
- 35:43number or like you know a favor? Ribbit pet name, or color, or
- 35:47something, when we make all these patches.
- 35:49And so, he gave us references for, like, an old dog's name and
- 35:53a current pet's name and an old nickname of his dad and you
- 35:59know, like stuff that we were able to infuse and he's like
- 36:01military influence to patches that are along the sleeves of
- 36:05the jacket and their bright. When you get them made in, we
- 36:08had to make five of each, I think so.
- 36:10Then we had to film on the jacket and then take them down.
- 36:14So every piece gets With some dust or some dirt, in some ways,
- 36:17sometimes it's paint, Nancy's vest that she wears on top of
- 36:20her quilted jacket, those were made and based off of like a
- 36:24duck hunting, you know, canvas. So, luckily with a lot of this,
- 36:29it was sort of already at that level.
- 36:31And then we just kind of accentuated it, or balanced it
- 36:35out with other pieces, and it had to take those down to match.
- 36:38So, fun definitely. If some of the best costumes
- 36:41entire show, it's an underrated moment because it is a darker
- 36:44scene. But like we actually Get them in
- 36:46that light. You could see all these details
- 36:49and this is why I love doing this podcast.
- 36:51How would I ever know about these patches on Joe kiri's?
- 36:54Look. So back to the collaboration
- 37:00with actors, you know, like it's nice to be able to have when you
- 37:03have the time to make patches if you have the time to go.
- 37:05Hey. Do you want, you know, to have
- 37:07anything on them? That means something to you.
- 37:09So what's your favorite number? Like, I love back.
- 37:13Yeah, one of my favorite pieces. On the show, I cannot get over
- 37:17this look first, I have to say thank you for posting so much
- 37:22behind the scenes on your Instagram.
- 37:23I think everyone should take a lesson from you because it's
- 37:27just so fun that seeing it the Scantron look on the Dustin.
- 37:32It was one of the highlights of the Season.
- 37:35Yeah. You create this.
- 37:37You know, we found that fabric in Atlanta Georgia at one of the
- 37:41shops out there and I saw and I was like, oh gosh, that looks
- 37:45like skin. Shrunk Fabric and amongst a lot
- 37:48of the research I was doing, there was a moment where there
- 37:50was a fashion trend of drawing on your clothes.
- 37:53And I think I saw an ad for like a sweater that came with
- 37:56markers. You could buy this sweater from
- 37:58a magazine. I think you called a phone
- 38:00number or you know, like sent in your money through the mail and
- 38:04they would send you this sweatshirt with like three
- 38:06colored markers that you could color in on the sweater.
- 38:10So, you know, it just kind of happened to be in that recently,
- 38:14and then I see the Scantron Can I call that's exactly what he
- 38:17would do is like drawn these Bubbles and make his own because
- 38:21you know I think he's such a smart kid that he's one of those
- 38:23kids that probably is so bored in school because he already
- 38:25knows it, right. You know.
- 38:27So it's like algebra whenever yeah, I thought Dustin would be
- 38:32the type to be so bored but in a, you know, in a good way, he'd
- 38:36use his time wisely and then make this beautiful artwork on
- 38:38his shirt. So this was also done by Trevor
- 38:41who did the hellfire club logo and I said you know could we do
- 38:44some like video game in? Imagery.
- 38:46So it's kind of like Zelda, themed and then down at the
- 38:49bottom, we're looking at a photo of the back of Dustin shirt and
- 38:52that's kind of the will the wise at the bottom.
- 38:54It's sort of the little will wizard costume, he's with, you
- 38:58know, the staff that has this like breathing dragon and the
- 39:01fire goes over the shoulder so it's so good.
- 39:05There needs to be like a stranger things.
- 39:06Museum, one day and this is like the front, I think it's so good.
- 39:12Really cool. I feel like I would hang out
- 39:14with Dustin. Oh yeah.
- 39:18It's been fun to post some behind-the-scenes stuff.
- 39:21You know what, I always ask the actors before I do it.
- 39:24I wouldn't post pictures from fittings if they didn't approve,
- 39:27because that's of an intimate moment and intimate time between
- 39:30a designer and an actor. But I think that there, luckily,
- 39:35these kids are kind of used to it at this point.
- 39:37And I also think it's like why not showcase the work that we're
- 39:40doing, so people can see how much is involved, you know.
- 39:43Yeah. I mean, that's shirt deserves to
- 39:45see the world. Old and vice versa.
- 39:49I get it. But that it's there's a level of
- 39:51trust there that you have to maintain so.
- 39:53I mean yeah, I love that idea. That you asked to actors and
- 39:57actresses before that makes perfect sense.
- 40:00Absolutely yes. And no one's ever said, oh don't
- 40:03show it but you know, I would never want to show a picture
- 40:05that they're not happy with. So I would always ask first
- 40:08right? All right, so we're coming to
- 40:10the end here but I cannot let you go before we talk about
- 40:14certain legend that we had on this.
- 40:16Season where it's I was going crazy because I'm like, I hope
- 40:19everyone watching the show knows who's in these in the small
- 40:23role. Robert Englund.
- 40:26Who plays Victor Creole Freddy Krueger himself.
- 40:29What what? That is insane.
- 40:32Amy. I know so that your Legend, we
- 40:35got the casting. We were just like what room was
- 40:39like, oh my God. So cool.
- 40:44What was it like working with him.
- 40:45I I just can't imagine, I'd be terrified, you know, it wasn't
- 40:49scary in that way because it was just like, I want to make sure
- 40:51that this is right for him because he came in and are
- 40:54fitting. I think was just like on a
- 40:56Friday and he was going to shoot on Monday.
- 40:58Well, you know what I mean, often, especially with TV,
- 41:02casting can be what feels like last minute for us but, you
- 41:05know, once they have to arrange the deals and stuff, there's
- 41:08just so much involved. So unfortunately it becomes a
- 41:12last-minute thing where it feels like costumes, never gets enough
- 41:15time to prep. But we knew that character was
- 41:18coming and we knew he would be in an institution.
- 41:20So we had some ideas knowing that Victor Creole, we kind of
- 41:24knew what he would be doing but we didn't know who the actor
- 41:26was. And then once we got the
- 41:27go-ahead, we had already pre pulled some pieces.
- 41:31So I put some outfits together and honestly the first thing he
- 41:33tried on was like the one we got so lucky.
- 41:35He was like this feels right, you know, there was other
- 41:39sweater options and then we landed on this one and we needed
- 41:43multiples just in case. So it's like from Vermont
- 41:47Country Store, I think that's wonderful.
- 41:49Website with some unique, we had the fitting on a Friday, we aged
- 41:55it over the weekend and you know, tried again it was like
- 41:59that thing where you give it years of age but you don't have
- 42:02much time to do it, but here's in a weekend which is crazy, it
- 42:08was just great to see us process, you know, to like have
- 42:11him, try it on feel what it feels like and where the clothes
- 42:13are on the fitting room. And then once he knew it was you
- 42:16It was like, this is the one so that was really special and he's
- 42:19got some great Hollywood stories.
- 42:20I hope he writes a book someday. I hope so too.
- 42:23I would read that in a second and I love this behind the scene
- 42:25shot of him. Everyone listen can't see it,
- 42:28but maybe we'll share it where he's just like, curled up in
- 42:30this sweater. It looks so comfortable.
- 42:32It's also such like a model shot to.
- 42:34I'm like, I love this. Pose editorial in like a insane
- 42:38way. Right?
- 42:40The practice this one. Well, Amy, this is Ben.
- 42:46So much fun, but I have to ask you.
- 42:48We play a game on this podcast called one costume.
- 42:51Rule them all, where we pick our favorite look.
- 42:54Would you be willing to play with us?
- 42:56I know it's a little hard, but the one costume to rule them
- 43:02all. Okay, so I've been having a hard
- 43:09time with this show actually trying to figure out what my
- 43:11favorite costume was. And before we talked I said one
- 43:15costume but I don't know, I feel like I'm switching back over to
- 43:18Eddie Munson also. That luck is just so fun.
- 43:21I love the idea that you had to sit around and pick different
- 43:25bands and think about how, you know, Eddie would react to
- 43:28those. But I also loved a milkshake
- 43:31dress too because that's such a complex look that, you know, was
- 43:36so difficult and people Oh, I thought it was, you know, just a
- 43:39simple throw milkshake on and go.
- 43:41It's not that easy, but I have to ask you.
- 43:44Do you have a one costume? Rule them all?
- 43:46I think, my answer would be. Yes.
- 43:49And no, but I think it's, I mean to rule them all in what way
- 43:52would be, Michael returned question because there's so many
- 43:55different like categories, you know, like to rule them all for
- 43:58like how hard it was to make or how easy it was to achieve or
- 44:03how much we liked it for the actors Comfort, or right?
- 44:07You know, There's some reasons, I mean, I do kind of agree with
- 44:10you. I'm kind of leaning towards
- 44:11Eddie and I think my team was probably pretty relieved by the
- 44:14time I settled on all the patches and pins because there
- 44:16were days or would be okay, this patent goes here, this band is
- 44:19this if I would change it. Nope, we have too much blue.
- 44:22Now, we get moving. It was painstakingly like slow
- 44:26for me to get it in the place that felt right and then it was
- 44:30like painstakingly like track it.
- 44:31Make sure it's in the right place every time and so I think
- 44:35that as soon as I finally picked They were like finally oh my
- 44:39gosh, the kids are changing her mind.
- 44:41Yeah they're probably finally she picked.
- 44:44So I mean I guess that would be right?
- 44:46I mean you can't say your favorite kid, you know.
- 44:48I don't have kids but yeah I think I do expect you to pick
- 44:51one but it's really good. Is there like a certain costume
- 44:55that like maybe found like super challenging that by time you saw
- 44:59on screen? You like off like finally that
- 45:01one made it and it turned out like really well yeah kind of
- 45:05the 11 1, right? Because It's still kind of like
- 45:08what did we do? The the dress with the plaid
- 45:10shirt you're like next season? No more milk shakes, please.
- 45:17That if you take time to think about the storyline and where
- 45:19she's come from, and where she is, it does kind of show the
- 45:22layer of like Hawkins meets, California meets displaced
- 45:27meets, you know, new girl in a new school, trying to find her
- 45:29way. So that one took a minute to get
- 45:32there, too. Because there was a different
- 45:33dress fabric before we chose that one, there were other
- 45:36shirts. You know, it's disjointed enough
- 45:39that I feel like it tells the story pretty clearly if you kind
- 45:41of stop to think about it. So that one was kind of
- 45:44challenging Amy. I'm so excited that you were
- 45:48able to join us. I'm so honored I've been looking
- 45:51forward to this. Thank you.
- 45:53I'm so grateful for the that you took the time and that we were
- 45:56able to do this. And I'm so grateful for all this
- 45:57time, you do for all the other designers and for showcasing
- 46:00costume is a pretty challenging. So thank you for like bringing
- 46:04attention to it because you do a really great job of it.
- 46:06Oh, thank you. So, So much.
- 46:07It's really such an honor. I love your work.
- 46:10And speaking of, do you have any future projects that you could
- 46:13maybe tease out, where you can see more of a me Paris?

- 46:20season 2 of Yellowjackets. Oh wow.
- 46:23Yeah, that's another show that I'm coming into not having
- 46:26started it and it was done by Mariska, who did a brilliant job
- 46:30of setting up season one, so I get to continue that and then
- 46:33add in to the new season. And then there's some new
- 46:36characters that are new this He's in so it has been
- 46:39challenging but totally fulfilling and it's a good story
