The Ultimate Costume Designers List

A costume designer is like an author who weaves a story with threads instead of words. They study the time period in which the characters find themselves and selects the right colors and materials to make the outfits really “pop” on camera. They draw hundreds of sketches. They help the actors transform into heroes, and of course, they cut, trim, and sew miles and miles of fabric. Here are the top fifteen best costume designers according to Okolo Kino.
In this episode, we're going to talk about the greatest outfits in cinematic history and the people who made them. If you love “Fight Club”, “The Great Gatsby”, “The Grand Budapest Hotel”, or “The Wizard of Oz”, you are sure to find plenty of fascinating information in this video.
