Makeover Montage: A Fashion in Film Podcast

Our friend (creator of @the_brand_nue) Stephanie Montes gave us this weeks movie. A Y2K era Disney GRL PWR classic with some interesting fashion choices.

Fashion and Beauty Editor ​(​and BOSS​)​ Stephanie Montes joins us this week with her pick​,​ Sex And The City: The Movie. We all agree Patricia Field is the go to costume designer when it comes to high fashion, taking risks, and NYC. She took all 4 women and for the entire 6 seasons (and 2 movies) told their stories via fashion. SATC will always be remembered as one of the most fashionable show on TV.

Join us for the '76 throwback (filmed in the early '90s) fashion filled film all about the of last day of school and everything that entails for a group of Texas teens. Costume Designer Katherine Dover gave us butterfly collars, GOOD Cher-esque denim looks, jumpers, rompers, oodles of bells (tops and bottoms) and, sporty-chic. This is a Katherine "Kathy" Dover appreciation episode and that's about it.

We're kicking off 2020 with another movie from costume designer Eugenie Bafaloukos (Mad Love), Reality Bites. Mz. Winona Ryder, a fyne young Ethan Hawke, Janeane Garofalo, Steve Zahn, and Ben Stiller give us loads of '90s post-college style to review. We could dedicate an entire show to Janeane's Peter Pan collar dresses!

Ending Drewcember with The Wedding Singer! One of our favorite costume designers, the marvelous Mona May, beautifully balanced everything from '80s pop-culture inspired costumes to looks that we want to replicate today. This was the perfect way cap off to Drewcember 2019! Radom clip of the week: Meet The Barkers- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4468EFB90629A4A8

Drewcember and our 50th episode, you know we had to do Charlie's Angels! Costume designer Joseph G. Aulisi decked our 3 favorite PI's in individual styles that complimented each other perfectly and created once of the most fashionable ask kicking trio's we've ever seen!

Drewcember continues with one of Gotham's most memorable henchwomen, Sugar! Ingrid Ferrin dressed Drew in lace, thigh high stockings, feathers, and a little shimmer as her role of bae to the "sweet" side of Two-Face. Batman Forever also gifts us a leather studded, whip snapping, fishnet (ayee) wearing Debi Mazar as Spice, as the other side of Sugar's coin.
