Makeover Montage: A Fashion in Film Podcast

Take that Ver-sayce dress out the closet, crack open a nice can of doggie chow, and get ready to...THRUST IT! We're talking about Showgirls (1995), and we enlisted a VERY special guest (and Showgirls expert) for the episode, the one and only, Lenora Claire! Listen to Lenora and Blaire reminisce about going to bar mitzvahs in the Valley and bond over their love of monkeys (they scare Marie) while we discuss the gorgeous bedazzled costumes and makeup seen on Nomi Malone and Crystal Connors. Plus, there's a Drew Barrymore Easter egg in the movie, and so much more! Costumes by Ellen Mirojnick.

If you've got a taste for revenge like WE do, you're gonna love our episode on Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill film franchise! Plus, we've got a special guest in the house: the Renaissance woman, multi-hyphenate goddess, and host of the Magandz Podcast, Claire Beaudreault! Tune in now to hear us talk about our favorite revengewear, the movie's sartorial homages to Bruce Lee and True Romance, and how we've come to realize that bootcut jeans might just be the ultimate "fight pant." Claire also tells us about the time QT left her a voicemail. Costumes by Cat Thomas and Kumiko Ogawa.

Grab your top hat, pour yourself a glass of absinthe, and get ready to transport yourself to turn-of-the-century Paris, mes chéries Fishies. We're doing Moulin Rouge (2001) with Rolling Stone writer Brittany Spanos! This movie has enough gorgeous (Oscar-nominated!) costumes by Catherine Martin and Angus Strathie that it made us forget how tragic the ending is! Why, Baz Luhrmann, why?! We also cast a modern version of the "Lady Marmalade," song/video for the movie's soundtrack. Can you guess who we'd pick? Tune in now!

We've been WAITING to do an episode on I May Destroy You! Michaela Coel is one of the best creatives of our time, for real. Now that the season finale has aired here in the US, we wanted to talk about our love for the series, and, of course, the looks by costume designer Lynsey Moore. OBSESSED! Marie might even buy a pair of jeans, that's how serious we are about the fashions. Also, Blaire has a wild theory about the show.

Show notes:

What if you woke up one day...and were suddenly 30 and a "big time magazine editor" in New York City?! Yes, we're talking about 13 Going on 30, the 2004 fantasy rom-com starring Jennifer Garner, and we have a special guest, the writer and author of Layoverland, Gabby Noone! We discuss the movie's tiny designer bags, statement necklaces, Blaire's vintage CBGB shirt, and the movie's missed opportunity for a wardrobe montage. Plus, outfits to die in, fashion trends "being on pause" because of COVID, and a compelling argument for a Pucci comeback. Costumes by Susie DeSanto!

Greetings, Fishies! Get ready to do the bend and snap with us, 'cause we've got a very special episode this week!

Camp kids, unite! It's Fishnet Flix for tha children with our first ever kids-themed episode! Marie's nephews, Mason and Grant, requested we watch the 1994 summertime comedy Camp Nowhere. This fun 'lil flick is about a kid named Mud who teams up with his friends to pull off the greatest con of their prepubescent lives—a completely made-up summer camp with no adult supervision! There are a surprising amount of good outfits in this movie from costume designer Sherry Thompson (Blossom, 7th Heaven) including a variety of Coogi sweaters! (Who can tell us how to pronounce Coogi?) Plus, we discuss Andrew "Mr. Steal Your Girl" Keegan and his "spiritual group." Also cameos from many familiar faces including an actual cult member.

Coogi sweaters were NOT Cosby sweaters:

In Coming to America, Prince Akeem (Eddie Murphy) decides to venture from his Zamunda palace to New York City's Queens, with the hope of finding his own queen to marry. This 1988 classic comedy is not only blessed by Murphy's comedic genius, but also Deborah Landis's costume mastery. Blaire and Marie fawn over the extravagant fur shawls, gold lace gowns, and oversized scrunchies before the episode goes off the rails and they start talking about aliens, Glenn Danzig, and Blaire's (new) online shopping habit.
