Award Winning Costumes That Brought Films To Life

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo Wowed Everyone

According to Trish Summerville, the costume designer behind The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, dressing the actors for this movie was quite a challenge, especially when it came to the ’60s flashbacks — and making sure that the main character, Lisbeth Salander (played by Rooney Mara) had her own personal punk style accurately captured. That meant using some vintage clothing, and a little bit of making new clothes look old and worn. “It was important for all her clothing to seem very authentic, nothing brand new. Like she could disappear into the shadows and didn’t call attention to herself,” Summerville said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
