Exploring Sexuality and Humanity: The Intriguing World of 'Poor Things'

TL;DR Summary
Costume designer Holly Waddington creates a unique blend of Victorian-era fashion with contemporary and surreal elements for the upcoming film "Poor Things." The costumes feature exaggerated silhouettes, including a standout "vagina blouse" with large puffy sleeves. Waddington incorporated light fabrics and organic details, deviating from traditional period authenticity. The color palette, influenced by sexual overtones, includes soft pinks resembling human skin and a latex "condom coat." The exhibit showcasing Waddington's work is currently open to the public in Downtown Los Angeles.
