Award Winning Costumes That Brought Films To Life

Black Swan‘s Costumes Were Unforgettable

When talking to Clothes On Film, the designer for Black Swan, Amy Westcott, revealed she had to do with a bit of controversy when Rodarte tried to take credit for the work she’d put into the film — even though they did partially contribute to the designs for the movie. However, it sounds like Amy is still proud of the work that earned her a CDG award of her own… and that work was complicated at times, since she needed to make sure the ballet costumes were rooted in the real world of dance. “It was important to keep the film grounded in reality so the fantasy aspect could be accepted. Keep its feet on the ground, so to speak,” she said.
