Carbon Costume

Willa Ferreyra, played by Justine Lupe-Schomp, is from the series Succession. Willa was a former escort and in the series, becomes the partner of one of the Roy siblings: Connor Roy.

Willa is a quiet character starting out in the show, but gains confidence as she becomes closer with Connor. We can see this not only through her dialogue where she stands up for herself and Connor, it is shown very clearly through her costumes. As she accompanies Connor to events with the family and Waystar Royco, she seems to learn to dress perfectly for the occasion and still stand out with her stylish choices. She wears light and flowy dresses at a garden party and other times she dresses edgy but follows current trends like the black choker, that may not exactly fit into the Roy family style. When Connor runs for president after the two are married, her fashion transitions into classic pieces and even 1960s inspired, showing that she wants to dress and feel like her idea of a first lady. Willa has possibly the greatest growth in her wardrobe in the series and is one of the few characters who really remain true to themselves, and that’s why we love her!

Marcus is from the series The Bear and is played by Lionel Boyce. The Bear is about a chef named Carmen, who has quit fine dining and returns to Chicago to try and fix the run down sandwich shop, previously owned by his brother who passed. Marcus is a chef at the restaurant and handles the baking. He is a kind character that grows in his ignited passion for learning to be the best he can be in the kitchen.

Marcus wears the same uniform most of the kitchen staff does, which is a deep blue denim apron, a white shirt, black pants and non-slip shoes. He always has on a beanie that makes him stand out, which he also wears to his trip to Copenhagen in the latest season. With this we can see more of his unique style outside of his uniform.

Miss Trunchbull in the 2022 adaptation of Matilda The Musical is played by Emma Thompson. Matilda was originally a book by Roald Dahl, then made into a film, and then a Broadway musical. The 2022 film is based on the musical. With all of these different versions of the classic story, Miss Trunchbull has always remained a pretty scary character!

Miss Trunchbull wears a very military inspired costume, showing her authority and seriousness for her job, being a terrible principal. Her costume hilariously fits her attitude and personality so well- from the army green trench coat, to the special belt attachment to hold her mallet. This would make a wonderfully fun and recognizable costume!

The hilarious Will Ferrell plays the CEO of Mattel in the new movie Barbie by Greta Gerwig. The actual CEO of Mattel is Ynon Kreiz, who the character is based off of. This character exists in the real world that Barbie enters and the costume reflects that.

This CEO wears a black suit with pink details like a pink shirt and pink tie, representative of Barbie at the company. Add pink socks for an extra fun detail and pair with black dress shoes or black roller skates to match the suit.

Fred and George Weasley, played by James and Oliver Phelps, are from the infamous book and movie series, Harry Potter. Fred and George are mischievous twins at Hogwarts. They are the brother of Ron Weasley, one of the main characters of the series. They co-founded Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes, a joke shop. 

Fred and George are always together, and have very outgoing and humorous personalities. This is perfectly communicated through their wardrobe. They always wear the same pieces, but with some elements in different colors, or each costume is a different color palette. Their costumes are whimsical and neutral with fun pops of color that fit these pranksters perfectly!

Greta Gerwig is the director of the new 2023 film Barbie. The Barbie movie follows Barbie and Ken’s journey into the real world and we meet more iconic Barbie dolls from Mattel along the way. Gerwig tends to dress in a way that fits the theme of what she is directing. For Barbie, the rest of the crew were also encouraged to wear pink to set everyday, creating an even more immersive environment for the cast. On this set Gerwig wore various coveralls or jumpsuits, and always pink headphones. Add a pink lanyard to tie it all together!

Mon Mothma, played by Genevive O’Reilly, is the Chandrilian senator in the Star Wars series Andor. This underrated character appeared in different films before, but in this new series, we get to see more of her story.

Mothma is a part of high society and is a poised leader. We see this in her costumes with powerful silhouettes and monochromatic, classy color palettes. Most of the time she is dressed like her environment and her home, which is sleek and minimalistic. She wears white on white, with creams and sometimes with a rose tint. She has unique, asymmetrical, and sharp tailoring. These pieces are usually in cashmere and wool, paired with flowy ones like pants and skirts. Layering so many pieces creates a unique and interesting look that is well put together, just as a senator and leader would be.

Candy Montgomery is from the crime drama TV series Love and Death, and is played by Elizabeth Olsen, based on a true story. Candy is the main character who is an active member in her church and a mother that gets herself into deep trouble when getting involved with another member of the church, Allan Gore.

This story takes place in 1980 Texas. Fitting Candy’s personality, she wears modest clothing that is slightly dated but still wears some pieces that are more trendy or risky in her community. She wears lots of muted tones that are reminiscent of the 70s and some pops of bright colors like red. You’ll usually see her in lots of denim, with stylish flare jeans and casual striped tops.
