Saltburn is a new film by Emerald Fennel that follows Oliver Quick (played by Barry Keoghan) as he stays in his rich classmate Felix’s estate, and a series of horrifying events occur.

Saltburn features an array of eccentric costumes fit for parties. One iconic costume that Oliver wears is this white suit with deer antlers to a Midsummer Night’s Dream themed party. To create this costume wear a printed white blazer or hand paint your own pattern on a solid white blazer with fabric paint. Pair this with white dress pants, a brown belt, green shoes, and of course a headband with deer antlers.

Bella Baxter (played by Emma Stone) is the main character of Yorgos Lanthimos’ film Poor Things.  Reanimated by Dr. Godwin Baxter, Bella is eager to learn all there is to know and embarks on an adventure to do just that with a lawyer named Duncan Wedderburn.  Bella has long black hair and is often awkward or unorthodox in her movements and speech.  She wears many fantastical costumes throughout the film, including a long dusty pink skirt with a ruffle blouse and white shoes, a black puff sleeve jacket with grey socks and black boots, and yellow shorts with the same ruffled blouse and a puff sleeve cropped jacket.  If you can’t find an exact match for some of her more outrageous costume pieces, don’t be afraid to find something similar.  Complete your look with a long black wig and black eyebrow pencil.

Lizzy is the protagonist in the film Showing Up, and is played by Michelle Williams. Lizzy is an introverted art student and a sculptor who is preparing for her exhibition as she struggles with finding balance with her creative work and everyday struggles, and the unexpected friend she finds in a pigeon she nurses back to health.

Lizzy’s costumes match her personality perfectly and are just like those of an art student. They feature very soft and muted colors, like her look with her canvas apron, blue shirt and khaki skirt. For her exhibition she dresses up more with a brown skirt and printed blouse. If you’re wearing this as a costume, taking a pigeon stuffed animal or prop and carrying it in a box could be a fun addition.

Angus, as well as the other characters, sticks to a pretty neutral color palette in his wardrobe. The textures and colors are very cozy and warm with lots of layers that gives us the feel of the cold season they’re in. Angus wears a brown puffer jacket with bootcut blue jeans, gray/ muted brown socks, and brown ankle boots. Another is a burnt orange wool sweater layered over a blue button down shirt.

Paul, as well as the other characters, sticks to a pretty neutral color palette in his wardrobe.

Paul wears a typical professor costume when teaching that consists of a brown corduroy blazer, gray sweater vest, white button down, and red bow tie. Otherwise he dresses more casually with a warm wool gray coat, a gray plaid/ tweed fedora, with a brown button down under the coat.

Maddie is a character from the Netflix comedy film No Hard Feelings, and is played by Jennifer Lawrence. No Hard Feelings tells a hilarious story of Maddie who is struggling financially and agrees to date a wealthy couple’s ant-social 19-year-old son named Percy.

Maddie has a very summer-y style and dresses slightly younger than the should when dating Percy, as she tries to convince him that she’s closer to his age. Some recognizable outfits she wears are all dresses, like her light blue and white floral dress, hot pink mini dress, and rose gold sequin dress. She pairs most of these with a pink and a gold necklace.
