Walter Plunkett | Costume Sketch for “Gone With the Wind” | 1939⠀⠀

———⠀⠀

This sketch was designed for the character of Belle Watling, the good-natured madam of the Atlanta brothel, brilliantly played by Ona Munson in the most memorable role of her career. In order to further distance Watling from the “respectable” characters such as Melanie and Scarlett, Academy Award®-winner Plunkett designed a more garish wardrobe with brighter colors and brassy accoutrements. The costume shown here is not seen in the film and likely was one of many Plunkett masterpieces that landed on the cutting room floor. (via Bonhams)

“I’m you but in drag!” Costume study of Jesus!Villanelle S4x02

As a costuming student, I was first drawn to Killing Eve from its costumes, especially the way they were so iconic and crucial to character development during seasons 1&2. The show utilised fashion as a weapon, and that fascinated me, inspiring me to create such distinctive aesthetics within my own work.

This show meant so much to me, a young, queer person in the arts and the finale has left me feeling hopeless about the very industry I am training to enter. Do better.
