Carbon Costume

Musical and Broadway fans are reeling after the release of the new trailer for the film Wicked. The film is a screen adaptation of the broadway musical Wicked, which tells the story of the witches of Oz. This film will be in two parts and release separately, at different dates. As we await the first release, we get to analyze and enjoy the trailer and all of it’s impressive actors and of course, the costumes.

In this I’ll be covering how you can dress like or recreate the different looks of Glinda that we get glimpses of throughout the wicked trailers out now. For the look pictured, wear a delicate pink sheer blouse that is sleeveless and ruffled along with a pink midi skirt, vintage-style pink heels, and a pink crossbody purse. Another look is one that resembles a ballet outfit where she seems to be practicing some kind of jousting or fighting in a class with Elphaba. To dress like that wear a pink ballet leotard, a pink wrap ballet skirt, and tie your hair up with two pink bows. Another thing to add could be a pink coat dress over top. Lastly, we get to see bits and pieces of what seems to be her iconic ‘Popular’ number where she gives us kicks and dance, even hanging from a chandelier in a sheer tulle pink robe that is all the drama, just like herself.

Ariana recently came out with a brand-new song and music video called “We Can’t Be Friends”, and fans have been raving about all the references in it, including her costumes. Part of the video references the 2004 film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Throughout the video she is erasing her memories of a previous relationship from her mind. One of the coats she wears, a denim long jacket with fur lining, is the same one worn in the original film by Kate Winslet who plays Clementine.

To dress like Ariana in this video, wear a denim jacket with fur lining, denim pleated skirt, and gray shirt with a cut-out neckline. This can be created by wearing a v-neck gray top, or taking a scoop neck gray shirt and cutting a triangle right under the neckline. For the V-Neck shirt, you also could cut a strip from the bottom of the shirt and sew/ attach it back at the neckline. She also has a pink streak in her hair and white eye makeup which can be done with a white eye-pencil or liner.
