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. From Audrey’s leopard print wiggle dress to Seymour’s dork-chic plaids, we have a grand old time dissecting these campy costumes. Other topics include childhood crushes on Rick Moranis, Steve Guttenberg, and Bill Murray; Megan Thee Stallion's looks in the "Bigger In Texas" music video; Georgina Trevino's my cunty purse; whether or not we're watching Wicked, "Adele Dazeem," and more unhinged tomfoolery from your favorite costume design-loving duo. HOMEWORK: Leave a message telling us about the one outfit in a movie that you think about a lot!

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)
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!

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.

Happy 25th anniversary to the 1999 classic, 10 Things I Hate About You! We’ve talked about Kim Tillman’s work on the pod before (Doppelgänger, Wild Things). This time, she created thoughtful and fashionable costumes for the Seattle teens in this reimagined Taming of the Shrew. Kim dressed Julia Stiles’s character in low-slung pants, cropped camo, and Frankenflops, opposite her sister’s (Larisa Oleynik) ultra-girly style. Heath Ledger (in his breakthrough role) got the stylish bad-boy treatment in custom-dyed tank tops and PVC pants.

Did you know that costume designers, the majority of whom are women, are paid nearly 30 percent less than other, male-dominated creative department heads? Despite costume design being a pivotal part of storytelling in cinema, it has been historically dismissed as “women’s work,” leading to the artisans being underpaid and under-appreciated in their industry. In this very special episode, we're covering the Pay Equity Now movement!

Boudoir Chic and 'Ringmaster Red' in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas (1982)
Y’all come back now, ya hear? In The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas movie musical, Dolly Parton is Miss Mona, the madam of the local Chicken Ranch, a historic and beloved brothel in a small Texas town. Sheriff Ed Earl (Burt Reynolds) helps out Miss Mona by looking out for the brothel, but the duo runs into trouble when TV personality Melvin Thorpe tries to expose the ranch. Dolly's outfits are a serious boudoir chic feast for the eyes, with ruffles, lace, feathers, sequins, and floor-length “ringmaster red” garments, costumed by the late, great Theodora Van Runkle (Troop Beverly Hills). As usual, we break down our favorite looks but also discuss Burt Reynold’s hunkdom (and how we’d cast Pedro Pascal in his role for our imaginary remake). There’s also chisme about Dolly and Burt hating each other during filming, so Blaire has a request for Ryan Murphy: to make the next installment of Feud be about their drama!

Angsty Teen Goth Style in Ginger Snaps (2000)
To finish October, we’re talking about 2000's Ginger Snaps on the pod this week! The film, which Marie describes as the Canadian precursor to Jennifer’s Body, is about two sisters named Ginger and Brigitte who are super close (and super angsty!). One day, Ginger gets her period for the first time, AND bit by a werewolf, and becomes a real ravenous b****! There are a lot of parallels between this and Jennifer's Body, such as the opposites-attract dynamic between the sisters, the blood-hungry transformation, and even the makeover moment reveal that happens during an iconic slow-motion, walking down the hallway scene. Costume designer Lea Carlson put Ginger and Brigitte in oversized cardigans, maxi skirts, thin choker necklaces, and animal skull jewelry. Forgot Gilmore Girls fall fashion, it’s all about Ginger Snaps werewolf-girl style! We also talk about House of Usher Raymond and the Y2Kills exhibit at Mystic Museum in LA, and we reminisce about going to Universal Studios Halloween Horror Night back in the day. Plus, Blaire makes an excellent case for more 'goth moms' in movies.

Costume designer Nadine Haders used touches of symbolic red throughout the film and other interesting choices, like a decorated military jacket and karate suits. Other things we discuss?
