Gingerbread-Blonde Wigs and Magical Chiffon Capes in Bewitched (2005)
Costume design breakdown of Bewitched (2005) starring Nicole Kidman, Will Ferrell, and Shirley MacLaine — directed by Nora Ephron and costume design by Mary Zophres. We’re wrapping up Freaky Witch Month with the sweetest sorceress in suburbia: Bewitched (2005)! Nicole Kidman stars as Isabel Bigelow, a real-life witch trying to live a normal life, opposite Will Ferrell’s egomaniac TV actor in Nora Ephron’s meta rom-com remake of the ‘60s classic. Costume designer Mary Zophres (La La Land, The Big Lebowski) serves up vintage-meets-Y2K whimsy with cardigans, pastel skirts, and preppy capri pants that turn Kidman into the anti–Practical Magic witch — sweet, soft, and suburban. But the real style icon is Shirley MacLaine as Iris/Endora — a walking Technicolor spell in chiffon, feathers, and finger-loop capes! She’s an old-Hollywood witchcore vision draped in 20 yards of fabric and pure chaos, the kind of diva smoke show only Shirley could pull off. In this episode, we chat about: Mary Zophres’s flirty, feminine, and timeless designs Nicole Kidman’s demure 2000s-meets-1960s wardrobe evolution Shirley MacLaine’s over-the-top “murder robes” and real-life witchy vibes Manifesting a Bewitched remake starring Pedro Pascal Segment Highlights: Mary Zophres's credits and inspo Top Looks and trivia Add to Cart: the fashion moments that made us want to shop Bonus tangents include: Marie’s coven-themed birthday dinner, Blaire getting babysat by Shirley MacLaine, and a spontaneous deep dive into 2000s remakes no one asked for (but we kind of love).

Cursed Buttons and Corporate Blouses in Drag Me to Hell (2009)

Costume designer Isis Mussenden (The Chronicles of Narnia, American Psycho) dresses loan officer Christine (Alison Lohman) in prim pencil skirts and promotion-ready blouses along with Mrs. Ganush’s witchcore chic of scarves and handkerchiefs. Plus, we talk early-2000s horror aesthetics, animatronic goats, and why Christine’s downfall might just be the most stylish damnation ever put on screen. In this episode, we chat about: Isis Mussenden’s inspirations and early-2000s horror palette Christine’s corporate-to-cursed costume evolution Mrs. Ganush’s grotesque glam and “witch weapon” styling The symbolism of that cursed button Our “Add to Cart” picks: cursed accessories edition Bonus tangents include: Marie's old life working in a bank and her own finance fashion choices (minus the curses) Charmed and Buffy — the Halliwell Sisters get their shoutout Marie’s crazy purse collection and “purse of the day” ...and more!

Freaky witch month continues! Smear some red lipstick and snap some twigs because we’re worshipping at the altar of Gladys, Amy Madigan’s instantly iconic nightmare auntie in Weapons (2025). Costume designer Trish Summerville outfits her like a 1970s thrift witch in oversized tinted glasses, plastic baubles, and the kind of chaotic color-clashing that can give you anxiety (in a good way). We unpack her intense microbangs and ritual props, praise her brooch game, and discuss why she deserves a prequel. Then, we get into conspiracy theories about her Madonna Inn-print carpet bag! We also discuss Marie's visit to the Showgirls Museum in Vegas. Tune in now! Notes: Marie's recent costume design stories: You got our numba!!!

Runway Hexes and Witchy Statement Coats in Beastly (2011)
Embrace the suck! We’re hexing high-schoolers this week with Beastly, a 2010s retelling of the fable Beauty and the Beast starring Alex Pettyfer and Vanessa Hudgens. Costume designer Suttirat Anne Larlarb conjured up typical 2010s teen looks for the leads, but the real style star is Kendra, Mary-Kate Olsen’s couture witch who curses Pettyfer's golden boy and steals the movie with her fashion goth looks. Whether it's sculptural coats, veiled top hats, or caged heels, she's giving runway occult and we're loving every minute of it. We break down every look this witch gives and also discuss the cybergoth-esque, "modern beast" makeup. Other topics include embracing Halloween consumerism culture, Marie's issue with casting hot men as monsters (see Nosferatu, Frankenstein) and the Olsen Twins' iconic Y2K style. Tune in now!

From Von Dutch to Von Furstenberg in Freaky Friday (2003)
We’re in early-2000s Los Angeles with Freaky Friday! When a rebellious teen (Lindsay Lohan) and her uptight mom (Jamie Lee Curtis) swap bodies, they also swap styles—from studded belts, raglan tees, and guitar-pick chokers to a now-iconic boho patchwork Diane von Furstenberg wrap dress with knee-high suede boots. Costume designer Genevieve Tyrrell (Swingers, Go) put our favorite Pink Slip queen in studded belts, cargo pants, raglan tees, and chunky highlights, then turns up JLC’s glam with that now-iconic boho patchwork DVF dress, knee-high suede boots, and a pixie cut that screams “rich mom in Laurel Canyon.” We relive the era’s Avril Lavigne vibes, chunky highlights, and Von Dutch sightings, plus all the LA nostalgia (RIP House of Blues).

Wagon Wheel Watusi! This week, we’re shimmying into Burlesque (2010), the bedazzled fever dream of a movie musical starring Cher and Christina Aguilera. It’s all rhinestones and ringmaster vibes, and we’re here for every glittering second. Costume design legend Michael Kaplan (Blade Runner, Fight Club, Flashdance) found inspiration everywhere—from sherbet dessert to Magritte and Man Ray—for these stunning costumes. We break down Cher’s Bob Mackie tuxedo-glam, Xtina’s transformation from small-town waitress to burlesque bombshell, and that dreamy off-the-shoulder green silk gown that deserves a spot in the Green Dress Hall of Fame (move over, Atonement!). Marie swoons over surrealist hand-motif bodysuits while Blaire confesses her love for a silver chunky heel and opera gloves. We also dive into the film's Pussycat Dolls origins and why this movie feels like a chaotic cabaret dream you never want to wake up from.

"I got more legs than a bucket of chicken!" For this episode, we’ve got big looks, big hearts, and even BIGGER hats: To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar! It’s been 30 years since this glittery road trip comedy debuted, and we’re celebrating the unforgettable drag stylings brought to life by costume designer legend Marlene Stewart (Coyote Ugly, The Holiday, Madonna music videos). Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes, and John Leguizamo don drag as Miss Vita Boheme, Noxeema Jackson, and Chi-Chi Rodriguez—three queens (ahem, two queens and one drag princess!) on a cross-country journey filled with makeovers, marabou, and midwestern magic. We break down the trio’s signature styles, discuss RuPaul’s cameo moment as Rachel Tensions, and the Clueless-level volume of costume changes.

Murderous Millinery and Chaotic Couture in Another Simple Favor (2025)
We’re baaaaack! After a mini-hiatus, we’re kicking things off with some brain candy: Another Simple Favor! The sequel to A Simple Favor has everything we love: mystery, murder, and a wardrobe so extra you could watch the movie on mute and still be entertained. Blake Lively returns as Emily, serving high camp, insane hats, oversized tailoring, and looks that scream Murder Mommy Mob Wife, all courtesy of costume designer Renée Ehrlich Kalfus (A Simple Favor, Hidden Figures, Friends With Benefits). Anna Kendrick’s Stephanie may have a few cute ‘fits, but let’s be real: this is ol’ blondie’s runway. We break down the couture-level costumes, discuss how Blake’s real-life stylist-free choices influence her character’s wardrobe, and compare it all to the chaotic looks in It Ends With Us (double pants trigger warning). You won’t find any litig**tion speak here, but you WILL find us spiraling into tangents on Marie’s totally healthy Babygirl obsession, our new segment (?) "Dakota Unchained," Party Girl’s 30th anniversary, and even a little Seth Rogen love. It's unhinged, it's fabulous, it's Makeover Montage.

Bottoms week continues! In this long-lost episode from the Makeover Montage vault, Marie sits down with the film’s makeup artist Natalie Johnson for a deep dive into the bold, hilarious, and blood-soaked aesthetic of the breakout teen comedy. Natalie shares how ‘90s teen classics like Bring It On, Jawbreaker, Never Been Kissed, and She’s All That inspired the film’s hyper-stylized yet realistic high school looks, and how Fight Club served as a makeup reference for those epic fight scenes. From skincare prep to bruising techniques, Natalie gives us a behind-the-scenes look at crafting both beauty and carnage on set. Plus, she opens up about her journey from MAC Cosmetics to movie sets, her love for horror, and why collaboration with actors like Rachel Sennott and Havana Rose Liu made Bottoms such a treat!

Imagine if your too-good-to-be-true boo was actually an android?! In this episode, Marie talks to Companion costume designer Vanessa Porter about her work on the sci-fi rom-com thriller, which stars Sophie Thatcher and Jack Quaid as a couple on a getaway with friends at a remote cabin—until hell breaks loose when one of the guests is revealed to be a companion robot! Vanessa breaks down how Iris’s (Sophie Thatcher) French New Wave-inspired wardrobe of pastel cardigans, gingham rompers, and Reformation-worthy sundresses isn’t just style goals, it’s a commentary on control, fantasy, and good ol’ toxic masculinity. They also discuss how dressing a character who doesn’t pick her own outfits flips the script on traditional costuming, and how each carefully coordinated look reflects her creator’s fantasy more than Iris herself. Plus: the cult-favorite necklace Marie’s adding to cart, which classic brand is a Tradwife staple, and how to design a Stepford Wifey outfit with just the right amount of blood splatter. Tune in now!

It's time to party like it's 1999! For this special NYE bonus episode, we're thrilled to welcome costume designer Katina Danabassis to the pod to discuss her work in the new A24 horror-comedy Y2K!

From the shiny, chrome-infused looks to the iconic brands that defined the era (Abercrombie! Tommy Hilfiger!), Katina's costumes for Y2K perfectly capture the essence of this moment in time. She tells us how she meticulously sourced vintage pieces, collaborated with the cast, and infused personal touches to make the fashion in Y2K feel authentic. She also tells us about designing the costumes in Bodies, Bodies, Bodies and Past Lives, what it's like working with Zendaya, and why "Go" is such an important movie.

Not to be confused with A Midsummer Night's Rave...this loosely-based, A Midsummer Night's Dream adaptation stars Ben Foster as a high school senior trying to win back his ex-girlfriend by joining the school play. The film is stacked with more familiar faces like Sisqo, Mila Kunis, Shane West, and Martin Short (who is basically playing a young version of Oliver from Only Murders?!).

Bubble Skirts and Fishnet Arm Slings in Little Shop of Horrors (1986)

Bubble Skirts and Fishnet Arm Slings in Little Shop of Horrors (1986)
Feed me, Seymour! We’re diving into Little Shop of Horrors, the 1986 musical comedy about a sentient plant that’s hungry for human blood. This pick comes courtesy of Blaire, a self-proclaimed "musical hater" with one major exception: this cult classic. Marit Allen (Eyes Wide Shut, Brokeback Mountain, The Witches) was the costume designer behind these fun '80s-does-50s/60s' looks, and we quickly see similarities between some costumes in this and another movie she designed, Mermaids.

Flight Attendant Fashion and “Rich Face” in View From the Top (2003) With Macy Eleni
TikTok thrifting queen and sustainable style icon Macy Eleni joins the pod to talk about one of her favorite films — 2003’s View from the Top, a lesser-known, underrated film from the early aughts, rom-com era. Gwyneth Paltrow is Donna, a small-town girl with big hair and an even bigger ambition to be a Chanel lipstick-wearing, first-class international flight attendant! Costume designer Mary Zophres (La La Land, Babylon, Ghost World) put Paltrow, Christina Applegate, Kelly Preston, and Candice Bergen in Moschino, D&G, Betsey Johnson, Versace, Escada, and DVF from the era, and every look is DIVINE! And the flight attendant uniforms range from sassy to sophisticated. This is a true, overlooked fashion movie that we are unearthing TODAY! We also discuss our love for Brittany Murphy, Gwyneth's "rich face," the power of pawn shop finds, and, of course, Macy's new book, Second Chances! Plus, so much more.

Hot Topic Goth Corsets and Cozy Fall Turtlenecks in Urban Legend (1998)

Hot Topic Goth Corsets and Cozy Fall Turtlenecks in Urban Legend (1998)
We bid farewell to October by having Halloween Queens’ Natalie Burris back on the pod to dissect the late ‘90s fashions of Urban Legend! This post-Scream slasher is stacked with the hottest stars of the era, with the killer terrorizing college kids by referencing Urban Legends. A super fun concept with great costume design by Mary Claire Hannan (The Babysitter: Killer Queen, Jackie Brown, Red Eye, Four Rooms!). We love the autumn-esque, Gilmore Girls vibe of Alicia Witti's final girl's turtlenecks, Danielle Harris as the goth roommate in all of her Hot Topic deliciousness, and Tara Reid's sexy looks as the campus radio host/sex advice columnist. Questions we have: was Sasha's (Tara Reid) Halloween costume somehow based on Tiffany from Bride of Chucky (it may have been filming at the same time?!), and was Niecy Nash's character in Scream Queens inspired by Loretta Devine in this film? Other discussions include Marie's JNCOs, The Substance (and Natalie’s incredible Halloween costume as The Star), the lack of goth side characters in movies today, and we long wistfully for the celebrity rumors and urban legends of yore….(gerbil, stomach-pumping, etc.).

Baby Bangs and Funky Florals In Scream 3 (2000)
"All I know about trilogies is that in the third one, all bets are off.” It may be the most controversial and hated of the franchise, but we love the campy, extremely meta Scream 3! Costume designer Abigail Murray gives us some super fun, highly underrated looks in the "Ghostface Goes Hollywood" third installment of the film series. We get into Sidney’s (Neve Campbell) relaxed final girl style and accessory ode to her dead ex, Parker Posey as the hilarious, stylish, cool-girl Jennifer Jolie, and, of course, Gale’s (Courtney Cox) bangs! We also spill the tea on Marie’s witchy Practical Magic birthday dinner, so be warned. PS. Don’t forget to leave a review! There may be a surprise you can find out about this episode...

‘90s Stoner Style in Idle Hands (1999)
There is evil out there, and I'm gonna kick its ass! We’ve got a late ‘90s Halloween movie for y’all — Idle Hands! The one has a rare issue; there wasn’t a costume designer credit, but a kickass wardrobe department still put the cast in fun 'fits. We get into the [Devon] Sawassance and discuss his underrated, incredible performance in this movie. Hello, that hand acting? Oscar-worthy. We love you, Devon! We also discuss Seth Green as a ‘90s style icon, vintage bowling shirts, hesher style, and…Pornstar clothing (memba them?). Top of the show chat and glorious tangents include Marie’s new Practical Magic prop acquisition, Queensylvia Akuchie’s gorgeous costume design in the new season of Bel-Air, what Blaire’s watching (Grotesquerie; Spoiler: She’s loving Travis Kelce), and another horror dude renaissance — Kyle Gallner!

Dying Over the 1980s Seedy Slasher Style in MaXXXine (2024)
We're baaaaack (Carol Anne voice). Did you miss us? We've risen from the dead just in time to celebrate Spooky Season! To kick off our comeback era, we're diving into MaXXXine, starring Mia Goth as the fame-obsessed final girl of Ti West's X film series. For this third and last installment, Costume designer Mari-An Ceo put Ms. Goth in delicious double denim, muscle shirts, leather pants, high-heeled boots, and gold jewelry — all of which have amazing references and seriously clever Easter eggs. Listen as we discuss our favorite KILLER looks from this 1980s Hollywood-set slasher, with Marie sharing unpublished tidbits from her interview with Mari-An. Before we get into the film, we catch up on things we didn't get to discuss these past few months, like: LongLegs (Blaire says Nic Cage is "dressed like Nanny on The Muppet Babies," and we're still recovering from that...); Practical Magic 2 (still awaiting confirmation of the AUNTS in the sequel); our official new style icon, Karis, the fabulous TikTok tween show pig champion; our spooky season finds, and more.
