- Опубликовано: 1 июн 2024
- A costume designer is like an author who weaves a story with threads instead of words. They study the time period in which the characters find themselves and selects the right colors and materials to make the outfits really “pop” on camera. They draw hundreds of sketches. They help the actors transform into heroes, and of course, they cut, trim, and sew miles and miles of fabric. Here are the top fifteen best costume designers according to Okolo Kino.
In this episode, we're going to talk about the greatest outfits in cinematic history and the people who made them. If you love “Fight Club”, “The Great Gatsby”, “The Grand Budapest Hotel”, or “The Wizard of Oz”, you are sure to find plenty of fascinating information in this video.

![A Day To Remember: Feedback [OFFICIAL VIDEO]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/iXVnysmQ4e0/mqdefault.jpg)
Your channel is one of the most incredible channels on RUclips. You've inspired me a lot, and showed me a side of movies that I didn't really know about or appreciate, and I wanna encourage you to keep making these incredible videos!
How do they have so few views and subscribers?!? It's crazy, their vids are such high quality
Sounds like you think one or two people are behind this video. It's a corporate venture using IT and SEO to make money off us.
I remember the clothing and styling of Fight Club more than the plot line.
It's should be noted that the buyer of the Sandy Powell Suit in turn donated to the Victoria and Albert museum of art and design in London
The production quality of your videos deserves a documentary of its own. Keep it up you will be recognized ,your work demands it.
Excellent video. Jenny Beavan and a few others also deserve honorable mentions at the end. It is difficult to narrow the list down to 15.
With the quality of your content, I'm surprised you don't have like more than a million of subscribers!
Number 7 is # one in my book! ❤ the use of color to express emotions, it just can’t be touch!
thank you everyone. that was awesome!!
This is one of the best video's I have seen on youtube, it is incredibly entertaining as well as educational. Don't know who put this together but you are a master editor and the narration is excellent.
Thank you for your feedback! Glad that you enjoyed. You also can check other works on the channel
I would love to have Tyler Durden’s Gucci loafers!
What a wonderful wonderful video.
I get a little obsessed with some costumes... From Dexter's kill outfit to Newts costume in the Fantastic Beasts films.
I love vintage materials, costumes made from old leather, tweed etc
#15 was savage
I am speechless! You did an an amazing job! And it warms my heart the acknowledgment that you are from Ukraine. And I truly can not understand why you are not in top because your videos are masterpieces! I want to rewatch your videos, look closely and check all small details. You are just unbelievable. Thank you for this glorious work! Just standing ovation.
Thank you, Maryna!
British Authorities did not prevent A Clockwork Orange being screened. It was Kubrick who requested it be removed from being screened by Warner Bros, due to the fact that him and his family were getting death threats due to the film.
Any of our movies require many months of production, which includes investigation, script writing, translating it to English (because the main author is from Ukraine), record the voice over, a recopilation of huge amount of vide materials which shall be watched, edit all these video to attractive video secuence, etc., etc., etc. If after all this work, there are some mistakes, you are who can tell it in the comments. We did what we could. We appreciate corrections, but you also may understand that we are just a few persons in the team and we can make mistakes. In the other hand, YT doesn't allow to change parts of video, just remove them.
@@OkoloKinoit’s easier to be the critic than the artist
Your videos are an ocean of insight don’t be concerned over grain of sand
Anyone can point out a mistake few create anything even fewer create educate and inspire
Don’t apologize none was needed
Safe travels
You should be getting more views than this, your editing is next level 👌🏻
Love learning about these types of people rather than always the actors getting the attention, superb work ❤️👏🏻👏🏻
One of the best channels exploring about my favorite topic: Movies..
I heard that The Dude's clothes weren't Zophres. That's what Jeff Bridges wears around the house in real life.
That jumper and the jelly shoes are really his
i still hope you and your families are safe!
Hi! Thank you very much for caring. The authors Ievgen and Daria still in Kyiv and are ok, but have serious problems with the access to the internet because of constant electricity cuts due Russian attacks to their electrical central stations. It's hard to work under this circumstances but they are very strong and brave.
I'm so glad I discovered your channel
I think costume desig is such an underrated form of story telling
Yours videos are awaited
i love your videos
GOAT tier vids
Thanks
Thank you, Jay! We are very glad to know you still watching and enjoying our works. You are with us since the beggining. You can't imagine how important are you for us.
THANK YOU, seriously for the best content on YT, wish you the success you deserve, anyhow keep it up, you will get there 💙
What a wonderful video into a topic that is often overlooked. Thanks 😊
Fantastic work guys, lots of work there.
YOUR CONTENT & FILMS ARE AMAZING…… I have just started binge watching ur Videos….they are so pleasant to digest & they quench the thirst for absorbing quality content , tht is rarely provided by RUclipsrs etc. YOUR breakdowns ARE 😘 LOL …. U have amazing videos , not only are these highly detailed , in-depth, & thorough……but you also use an intuition & ability to connect pieces of the puzzle that aren’t things tht can be found through sound research alone but research done with a certain talent & skill is required to break it down like u have done in most videos I’ve seen
In particular your breakdowns of Tarantino, & especially Nolan & Scorsese Videos are just epic
Thank you very much for your compliments. We are really glad to know you enjoyed it!
I worked as a costumer in the entertainment business for over twenty years. Edith Head may have won eight Oscar’s for Best Costume Design, but you need to ask, “Did she deserve them?”. I think you touched upon the controversy in your documentary but the full scoop is not revealed. She had secured two studio contracts throughout her career. Paramount and Universal. This allowed her to claim bragging rights over all the shows at those studios. Hence, the astronomical nominations. Head is known to have stolen credit for designs. I applaud Hepburn for demanding Givenchy provide her costumes for “Sabrina”. Yet Edith coveted the Oscar solely to herself. In addition, Head’s widely known for her glamour designs.
If she worked in today’s entertainment scene, Ms. Head would not have won eight Oscar’s; the competition is far superior!To me, the most talented costume designer should have the capability to create outstanding pieces in all genres: historical, contemporary, futuristic and fantasy. Particularly the last two categories because an individual needs to design in an imaginative stratosphere to produce wondrous and believable costumes. I believe that Colleen Atwood and Sandy Powell should occupy the top position. Mary Zophres had her “La La Land” collection on display just prior to the Academy Awards where she had secured a nomination for that film. The workmanship on those costumes looked so amateur, even the employees guarding the displays snickered at the poor quality. In your closing credits, Deborah L. Scott is listed as an honorable mention. I worked with her on Titanic. When shipping her research material back to the United States, one book fell open upon her desk. It is an exact replica, line for line, of Kate Winslet’s outfit as she’s boarding the ship! There are numerous other accusations where Scott took unapologetic liberties at stealing designs. However, unless you are a crew member who is entrenched in the industry, I understand why egregious indiscretions remain hidden.
Otherwise, thank you for producing such an excellent documentary; oftentimes costumes are not given enough attention when compared to the other crafts needed to create “movie magic!”
Thanks for the detailed comment. If I were to make this video now, I'd definitely consult with people from the film industry or at least give it a try. Unfortunately, in the past, I didn't have any connections in the movie industry, so I had to do all the research on my own. Considering I'm not a costume designer and never had access to the industry apart from documentaries and articles, the video turned out a bit superficial and, let's say, popcorny.
But on the flip side, thanks to it, I learned an incredibly interesting facts and learn new even now from you! Thanks again! :)
You should write a book.
There needs to be a documentary done for set design & production and part two of costumes please. ❤
Yours video is Fantastic! Great jobs! 👍🙏
♥️
I love your videos please keep it up!!
Great Content! We need a Spike Lee video from you!
ohhhhhh snap. im excited
amazing
BEST CHANNEL ON RUclips
Thank you! Do our best
I have long wondered which designer came up with the ball gown featured in The King and I . In my opinion the most beautiful Hollywood costume ever. The play of light on that gown is magnificent.
Amazing video! ❤
Also, please where did you get the music for this video from?
Thanks! I got a suscription on Artlist and Epidemic Sound. There are referral links on the description
@@OkoloKino Thank you.
I checked for the links in the description but no referral links.
@@princessbuttercup482 Oh, I´m so sorry. Seems I forgot to add them under this video.

When are you throwing the Iñarritu series??
God I love your channel. I have an Idea, and I know it's a long shot, but I just have to ask. Will you ever do one of these Documentaries on Peter Jackson?
Going from making miniatures and doing low budget films such as *Bad Taste*, to casting Kate Winslets first film *Heavenly Creatures*. To making *The Frightners*, which would eventually be what proved he could make *Lord of the Rings* to the big studios in terms of CGI. Then to actually MAKING *Lord of the Rings*, and ending up remaking his favorite film *King Kong*. Onto *The Lovely Bones*, and the struggles of making *The Hobbit*, and the INCREDIBLE restoration of World War footage in his Documentary *They Shall Not Grow Old*, to the installment in his incredible career, his *The Beatles* documentary on the band.
Like I said I know it's a long shot you'll do this or even read this, but I think this would be nothing but spectacular to watch. An Incredible 3 part series just like your Tarantino series. Or perhaps two long 2 or 3 hour videos, just like your Scorsese Series.
Love your work man! 👍
Steven Spielberg, James Cameron, Oliver Stone are in the list to come I guess. Among actors Johnny Depp, Leonardo DiCaprio, Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman.
Great Video. I was wondering though why it's so hollywood centric. Every Artist worked or was most known through their hollywood work. Was it because the mos prolific costume designers went to hollywood or is it the oscar phenomenon (Hollywood being so popular that other places aren't really looked at)?
Yeah what is going on here? I keep forgetting I’m watching RUclips, finally check your page, only 56k subs, but low key the highest quality docs. And I’m not talking style over substance. This is actual good documentary filmmaking. Whoever is directing and editing these “video essays” knows what they are doing. And holy shit these mashup intros? “Goddamn, I said GODDAMN!”
What's the movie with Eve Arden at 55:43 ?
Can you do a video on wes Craven
Please please will you make video on Al pacino please
Al Pacino's carreer is huge. We would love to do it, but it will be possible just if Mr. Al Pacino helps us with some insides.
@@OkoloKino 🙌 yes
👏👏👏👏👏
upload some more mann
No Alexandra Byrne? No Margaret Furse? No Adrian? This list needs some major revision/expansion. Many greats in the field have been excluded here.
Keanu part 3??
We will release it before the end of this year!
@@OkoloKino thank you!! Love the channel. I randomly found the Tarantino doc yesterday after work and stayed up til damn near 3 am watching the Keanu, Joaquin, and Nolan docs lmfao great quality and super thorough. New sub!
@@muggzo Thank you! That was a great marathon. Hope you didn't get bored at the end ;)
@@OkoloKino def not, got the next 4 days off so going to be finishing up and then waiting patiently. Going to feel like ending a Netflix series and having to wait for the next season lol
чи буде відео на українському каналі:(?
До "переобувания" это был не украинский канал
@@kuso_chekkala Правильно, російськомовний канал українця, який зареєстровано в Україні
There has never been a superhero movie that deserved an award.
Still waiting on that James Cameron deep dive buddy. Avatar 2 is just around the corner, and James' career has plenty of material to cover so beautifully in one of your videos
"Anna Karina"?
"Little Woman"?
"Montehues"?
"Zhang Yimao"?
"Tyler Darden"?
Hire a literate narrator.
It's got to be a robot. They need to review what the robot said before publishing these things.
One you missed: Beauty of the Beast.
Let's adress the innevitable elephant in the room. Nobody complains about the lack of men in costume design, because... why would we? As true professionals we want the best for the job regardless the sex of that person. Reasonable people understand that certain jobs attract certain people; in the case of direction; men, in the case of costume design; women. Even the wokest activists know that’s a natural fact, but they won't mention anything that brings attention to lack of male "Inclusion" in female dominated jobs, because that destroys their narrative that gives them privileges, and they don't want to use their own "Inclusion" laws to favor the inclusion of straight white men in anything. Female dominated jobs, that's where they don't want that 50-50. So, should we go back to the inherit fairness in Meritocracy? Remember, Meritocracy is what put more women in the costume design department than men, after all.
