Carbon Costume

Lucky Flickerman is a character from the new Hunger Games film: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes and is played by Jason Schwartzman. The Hunger Games series of films are based off of the original books by Suzanne Collins. This film takes place 64 years before the original Hunger Games we know. In this new film, we get to see Coriolanus Snow at 18 years old who is assigned to mentor Lucy of District 12 as the 10th annual Hunger Games approaches. Lucky Flickerman is the charismatic announcer and very first host of the games.

Lucky Flickerman dresses for the occasion wearing a red velvet blazer with black details, white shirt, velvet black bow tie, black pleated pants and shiny black dress shoes. To add even more to the costume, add a fun prop mic and stick-on curled mustache.

Lorraine is a character from the Ti West Horror Film X, and is played by Jenna Ortega. X follows a group of actors that go to a house in rural Texas to make an adult film, when their elderly hosts turn on them. Lorraine in this film is the boom mic operator for the film.

Lorraine wears a casual 70s look with a brown toned shirt, maroon flare jeans, and a brown braided belt. She carries a boom mic and pole and wears black headphones.

Saltburn is a new film by Emerald Fennel that follows Oliver Quick as he stays in his rich classmate Felix’s estate, and a series of horrifying events occur. Venetia Catton is Felix’s sister and has a fling with Oliver at, and is played by Alison Oliver. She’s a character with lots of personality and at first seems shallow until we get to know her character more.

To create Venetia’s iconic pink look for yourself, wear a glittery purple dress or jumpsuit, pink cat-eye sunglasses, and layer over it a pink fun and party-ready tinsel jacket.

Nathan is a character in the film A Good Person by Zach Braff, and is played by Chinaza Uche. A Good Person is a charming but emotional film that tackles topics like addiction and grief.

Nathan has a very sleek but simple style that sticks with mostly a color palette of blues. He wears a light blue denim shirt, or a light blue dress shirt, a navy puffer jacket with a contrasting fabric sleeve, brown dress shoes, and a black peacoat.

Joe Yoo is a character from the new film May December, directed by Todd Hayes, and is played by Charles Melton. May December is about an actress named Elizabeth that visits Gracie’s home to study her as she prepares to play her in a film role. The film takes place in Savannah, Georgia twenty years after a tabloid romance between Gracie and a much younger Joe Yoo.

Joe Yoo has a very simple style and a realistic one. He wears lots of blues, like a light blue button down shirt with a white tee, a deeper blue plaid shirt, light wash relaxed fit jeans, and in another scene a striped polo shirt. His style being very light, blue, and often linen fits the environment of their house by the beach well.

Julie is the main character in the film The Worst Person in the World, and is played by Renate Reinsve. The film follows Julie for four years as she navigates life and love. She has a very simple, realistic but flattering wardrobe that can be easily recreated.

One look is a white jumpsuit that is short sleeved, and wraps in the front. Another is a simple and timeless black satin dress that has a straight neck that drapes at the front and spaghetti straps. And finally, the one we see on the cover in the impressive running scene is a navy blue button down shirt, khaki shorts, and white sneakers with red and blue detail.

Allison is the main character in the film A Good Person by Zach Braff, and is played by Florence Pugh. A Good Person is a charming but emotional film that tackles topics like addiction and grief.

Allison has a unique and bright style in the film. The costumes in this are not those of a typical movie about a struggling or depressed person. Her wardrobe is bright with fun patterns because they are what she owned previous to beginning her journey through addition and recovery, which is a much more realistic take. Although, the way she styles them is what shows her decline and state of mind. Some looks and pieces you can replicate in your own wardrobe is one like this bright gold and floral satin robe paired with navy and white printed leggings, a cozy oversized sweater with a diamond/ argyle type print paired with green leggings, and earlier in the film she wears this fun dusty rose-pink corduroy cap.

Saltburn is a new film by Emerald Fennel that follows Oliver Quick as he stays in his rich classmate Felix’s estate, and a series of horrifying events occur. Pamela is a friend of Felix’s mother Elspeth and is at Saltburn in the beginning of the film when Oliver arrives, and is played by Carey Mulligan.

Although we only see a short glimpse of Pamela’s style, it’s one that leaves a strong and memorable impression. She has blunt bangs, heavy makeup, lots of pearls and English-inspired jewelry pieces. To recreate some of her looks, wear a black knitted sleeve top over a black dress. Another is a black dress on which you can sew on small pearls to resemble buttons down the front, wear a ruffled Dickey collar underneath, lots of pearl bracelets and a ginger wig that could be styled like Pamela’s with short cut bangs.
