Oscar-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood and make-up artist Tara McDonald on creating the newest version of the Addams Family teen 🎙️ Interview:

Her look was created by Colleen Atwood, who has won four Oscars for her work on. “At first, it’s like, ‘Oh my gosh, what am I going to do?’ How many stripes can you have in your life?” saysAtwood, who has collaborated with Burton on more than a dozen projects, explains juxtaposing different textures is the key to Wednesday’s rich and varied closet, “A shiny texture next to a waffle weave cotton or a knit. Use different collar shapes to separate and define a graphic.

An aversion to anything outside the black-and-white wheelhouse also applies to Wednesday’s uniform, and Atwood’s team “ended up hand-screening those stripes in her uniform, which gave it a lot of life that otherwise might not have had.” Pre-existing options didn’t have the necessary nuance required for appearing on camera, and this is one of several custom-builds worn by Ortega.

Another is the catsuits worn during the Poe Cup canoe race by Wednesday, her roommate Enid , and their teammates. “They were a challenge because it was freezing, and the girls had to wear them in the water with wetsuits,” she says. Atwood drew on: “It was a homage to the past Tim Burtons of our lives.”“I assumed I’d probably end up making it,” she recalls about the showstopping Rave’N Dance gown, which Thing uses his five-finger discount to acquire from Uriah’s Heap, the local antique store.

Whereas Wednesday’s references are current, Gwendoline Christie, as Nevermore’s headteacher Larissa Weemsin the London apartment Atwood rented, fitted Atwood’s vision for this authoritative character.
