Julia McCullough
In The Prestige, Julia McCullough (Piper Perabo) is the wife of famed magician, Robert Angier. She is the former assistant to Milton the Magician, whose shills were Angier and future rival, Alfred Borden. When a water tank trick goes wrong and Julia drowns, Angier blames Borden, which begins the feud between the two magicians.
Nikola Tesla

Catherine Bloom
A gifted knife-thrower and excellent cook, Catherine Bloom is the biological sister of Trowa Barton on anime TV series Gundam Wing. She works in the circus as a gifted knife-thrower and does not like her brother hanging around with the other pilots, fearing they will be a negative influence. She is a kind, sweet girl at heart with a tough exterior. This guide is for her circus outfit, a pretty and feminine costume in pinks and purples.
Phoenix / Jean Grey
A telepath and telekinetic whose powers rival that of Professor X’s, Jean Grey (Famke Janssen) of X-Men: The Last Stand is no longer the kind, sweet woman of the previous two movies. After drowning while saving the rest of the team, Jean is resuscitated by a dark, evil, extremely powerful force called the Phoenix. As the Phoenix, Jean Grey joins with Magneto in his battle against humans and her true potential is unleashed in a fiery fury, resulting in tragedy. The Phoenix wears all red, reflecting her connection to fire.

Princess Jasmine in Red
While Princess Jasmine’s (Linda Larkin) classic outfit is teal blue in color, she briefly wears red after Jafar (Jonathon Freeman) takes control of the Genie (Robin Williams) and all of Agrabah. She uses her feminine wiles to distract Jafar and give Aladdin (Scott Weinger) time to trick Jafar into wishing he was a genie. In this case, the costume matches her fiery, independent personality.
