The Redcoats – Pirates of the Caribbean
What’s there not to love about the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise? There is this one thing that history lovers surely noticed — the uniforms designed for the British Soldiers. They were seen in the infamous red coats, but that uniform wasn’t used until the late 1700s.
Since the movie’s premise takes place in the early 1700s, the uniform’s use wasn’t quite accurate. That doesn’t mean the film wasn’t fun!
Andy - The Devil Wears Prada
As the fashion flick for the ages, "The Devil Wears Prada" does not shy away from high-fashion and at times highly unwearable outfits. Take for example the main protagonist Andy's (played by Anne Hathaway) outfit post-transformation from plain Jane to ferocious fashionista.
Andy struts into the Runway offices wearing what can only be described as "boot-pants?" The iconic Chanel boots cover so much leg that they double-up as pants! Kicks like those are reserved for only the fearlessly fashionable which is exactly why Patricia Field, the film's costume designer, decided to put Andy in those shoes. It conveys to the audience that Andy has (literally) stepped up her fashion game.
Claire - Jurassic World
The long-awaited "Jurassic World" left fans with some questions. Was the film even about dinosaurs? Why didn't Claire (played by Bryce Dallas Howard) ever take off her very impractical shoes throughout the movie? Even when running away from danger, she manages never to fall or twist her ankle, which was somewhat silly considering she was wearing heels.
The actress herself disagreed with the criticism; she explained that from a logical standpoint, she doesn't think Claire would have taken her heels off and that she would have been better equipped to run in them instead of barefoot.
Supergirl - Supergirl
We love this costume. It is more in line with the new-age superheroes and manages to make a great statement.
After significant amounts of backlash on the old suit, the new Supergirl suit makes it look more comfortable and easier than the old one. It also prevents the actress from getting cold while shooting the television show.
Jareth - Labyrinth
When "Labyrinth" first came out, one question was on everyone's minds: was David Bowie wearing a codpiece or not? While Labyrinth’s designers got themselves into trouble for making Bowie’s groin area so obvious, they seem to have no regrets!
Though, they still wonder how they managed to pull off the costume! In a 2016 interview, designer Brian Froud said, “Every so often you go, ‘Oh, my God! How did we get away with that?!’”
