Award Winning Costumes That Brought Films To Life

Blades of Glory Was Hilarious Thanks To The Costumes

The movies that have been honored for costume design aren’t just limited to dramas, fantasy films, and period pieces — some of them are straight up comedies like Blades of Glory, which won a CDG for its wardrobe. Designer Julie Weiss said in 2011 that designing for a movie like this one was “what you beg for as a costume designer.” Of course, making the wardrobe just right for Blades of Glory demanded tons of hot glue… and relying on stars like Jon Heder, Amy Poehler, and Will Ferrell to make the costumes their own so they help bring their characters to life. All in all, it sounds like this movie was a blast to work on, and the work definitely paid off.
