My Favorite Movie Costumes
Nina Sayer’s Black/White Swan Costumes in Black Swan (2010)
Designer(s): Amy Westcott and Rodarte (Kate and Laura Mulleavy)
Despite all the controversy (Amy Westcott or Rodarte) , the costumes for the ballet production in Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan are amazing.
Here’s an interview with costume designer, Amy Westcott for ClothesonFilm.com

My Favorite Movie Costumes
Cecilia Tallis’ Green Dress from Atonement (2007)
Designer: Jacqueline Durran
“This emerald green dress from Atonement (2007) could be the most famous item of clothing on film in the last decade…this long, slinky evening gown from a mini-epic set predominately during the mid-1930s to early 40s is an extraordinary achievement.” (Clothes on Film)
I’ve always loved reading about costume design, despite not having a sewing bone in my body. I love fashion and I love movies and costume design is where the two converge. I stumbled across a great website,Clothes on Film, which has great interviews, reviews, and knowledge about costume design and fashion on screen. One of the best analysis on the website is of the story-telling wardrobe of Spike Lee’s Do the Right Thing (1989). It was an awesome read. I decided I wanted to post a few of my favorite fashions on Ten Dollar Movie.
