4 Places to Find Everything You Need to Know About Fashion in Film

1)   IMDb

(Bryce Dylan Howard- imdb.com)

IMDb is the place to get the latest news about celebrities, events, and cinema. When I really like the fashion of an actor, I go to this site to look up what other films they’ve been in. This site contains all the profiles of actors, directors, costume designers and more. Here, you can see which costume designers have won the “best costume design” Oscars in the past and can learn more about the films they worked on.

2)   Man Repeller

                        (Mission Statement of Man Repeller – manrepeller.com) 

Man Repeller is a fashion blog that incorporates other aspects of culture, along with fashion, into its articles. This is because the blog believes that fashion is not simply what you wear; it’s a part of Culture. Film therefore is a large aspect of this source. My favorite thing about the blog is that it is a great place to find nostalgic looks of past stars in film as. For example, here is a recent article on the fashions of Goldie Hawn and how to get her style.

3)   IndieWire

 

IndieWire is the number one place to stay up to date on all Oscar news along with other film festivals and red carpet events. Here you can stay informed on all awards throughout the year, along with news coverage on all things film. This is the place to go to find articles and podcasts on production design and costuming in film.

4) Marie Claire

 

Marie Claire is a fashion magazine that not only keeps you up to date on the latest fashions of film stars, but also uses film as a place to explore important fashion moments in history. Here you can discover fashions from current and past stars and how to obtain their looks. This recent article is a great example of the nostalgic film fashion Marie Claire loves to report on.

 If you don't find everything you need know about fashion in film, don't put the blame on me...
