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).

This week, we're diving into the gloriously gross horror of Sam Raimi's Drag Me to Hell (2009), the ultimate cautionary tale about ambition, where one wrong decision will get you promoted to HELL! 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!

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!

Put on your side ponytail and get ready to dance, because we're rewinding to the ultimate VHS slumber party/ KTLA classic: Girls Just Want to Have Fun! This post-Footloose, pre-Dirty Dancing gem stars a baby Sarah Jessica Parker as Janey, an army brat with a dream of joining Dance TV, and Helen Hunt as her rebellious BFF Lynn — aka our surprise style ICON.

Costume designer Betty Pecha Madden delivered 1980s teen movie fashion gold, from velcro tearaway tartan schoolgirl skirts and Adidas kicks to Lynn's unforgettable collection of hair accessories (stegosaurus clips, rainbow feet barrettes, raccoon hats, a grasshopper pillbox hat, and even a Cinderella rat crown). We break down all the campy, '80s looks and dive into the film's stacked cast (hello, Gina Gershon and maybe Robert Downey Jr.?!), and the underrated soundtrack. Dancin' in Heaven!

This week, Marie is joined by Emmy-nominated costume designer Kameron Lennox to talk about dressing the cast of The Studio! Kameron breaks down the inspiration behind Matt's (Seth Rogen) never-repeat custom suits, Sal Saperstein's (Ike Barinholtz) sleazy-chic lapels, and the bold color palettes that distinguish each character. We also get into Patty's (Catherine O'Hara) regal Max Mara–inspired looks, Quinn's (Chase Sui Wonders) vintage-infused wardrobe (including some of Kameron's own pieces!), and of course, the wild, sartorial chaos of Kathryn Hahn's character, Maya!

From sourcing fabrics in Italy to pulling a Galliano gown for Zoe Kravitz, Kameron shares how she blended present-day style with Old Hollywood glam to make the show's world feel both timeless and fashion-forward. Plus, we chat about her work on Platonic, our shared obsession with brooches, whether or not Maya would accessorize with Labubus in season 2 (had to), and more!

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). Tune in and meet us at Third Street Promenade!

As if! Happy 30th anniversary to Clueless!!!

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. Plus, Marie's Lafufu update, Practical Magic 2 chismes, and more. Show us how you burlesque!

"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. We also talk about our recent obsessions, including Blaire's glass fruit ASMR and Marie's bald Lafufu. [SCREAMS] Tune in now!
