Makeover Montage: A Fashion in Film Podcast

Welcome to Dollyuary! It's Dolly Parton's birthday month, so it was only natural that we kick off 2024 by paying homage to our country queen, Dolly Parton! We're workin' 9 to 5 and going REAL DEEP on the 1980 film's costume design by thee Ann Roth. Violet (Lily Tomlin), Judy (Jane Fonda), and Doralee (Dolly) are all coworkers who have HAD it with their sexist jerk of a boss (Dabney Coleman), and things get out of hand after their revenge fantasy goes awry. There are serious layers to the ladies' costumes that you won't want to miss. Before we get into the movie, we discuss Stanley cups, Jeremy Allen White's Calvin Klein campaign, The Iron Claw movie (shoutout to costume designer Jen Starzyk!), and also play a message from a listener with a FAB gym bro vampire suggestion (from our Interview with the Vampire episode, if you recall....).

Let 'em eat cake, baby! To conclude Dunstcember, we're covering Marie Antoinette, Sofia Coppola's 2006 film that stars Kirsten Dunst as the controversial (and highly fashionable) Queen of France. Costume designer Milena Canonero won an Oscar for the film and it's not hard to see why. THE OPULENCE!!! We discuss the pastel Laduree macaron-inspired costumes, the surprise Converse sneaker cameo, and Gwen Stefani's pink ombré wedding gown from 2002, plus our usual favorite looks and what we Add2Cart after watching the movie.

"Goodnight, sweet prince. May flights of devils wing you to your rest." We've got Interview With the Vampire on this week's Dunstcember docket! Costumes are by Sandy Powell (Carol, The Wolf of Wall Street, The Other Boleyn Girl). Blaire educates us on the vampire saga and the toxic relationship between perennial sad boy Louis (Brad Pitt), narcissistic bad-boy Lestat (Tom Cruise), and their adopted daughter Claudia, played by Kirsten Dunst in her breakout role. We get into Sandy's genius costumes, discuss our top looks and Add2Cart picks, and dream about an IWTV reboot with the vampires as two jock-bros and a bitchy podcaster.

Up your ziggy with a wa-wa brush! In All I Wanna Do, our girl Kiki Dunst is a rebel at a 1960s all-girls high school with Gaby Hoffman, Monica Keena, Heather Matarazzo, and Rachel Leigh Cook. The girls are part of a secret club called D.A.R. (Daughters of the American Ravioli), in which they share their post-graduation dreams and vow to help each other attain them no matter what. Once the school threatens to become co-ed, the girls decide to take matters into their own hands and raise some hell! The private school looks are retro cute and inspire us to want to wear berets, knee socks, and 60s dresses. Costume design by Ann Hould-Ward and Julie Whitfield! Tune in now!

I said, Brrr! It's cold in here! Grab your pom-poms because it's time for Bring it On! For our first film for Dunstcember, we're discussing this 2000 cheer-com starring Kirsten Dunst as the captain of a high school cheerleading squad who discovers her team's legacy has all been a lie! Costume design is by the amazing Mary Jane Fort (Mean Girls). We talk about the difference between the Toros' uniforms and East Compton Clovers' fashion-forward looks, the Buddha graphic clothing item that was everywhere, Canyon Group robes, and Cliff's (Jesse Bradford) choice of band shirts. Blaire also educate us on something she calls Food Jail, inspired by a celebrity's *interesting* food combinations. And Marie guesses the character's zodiac signs for our Cosmic Costumes segment.

To finish October, we're talking about 2000's Ginger Snaps on the pod this week! The film, which Marie describes as the Canadian precursor to Jennifer's Body, is about two sisters named Ginger and Brigitte who are super close (and super angsty!). One day, Ginger gets her period for the first time, AND bit by a werewolf, and becomes a real ravenous b****! There are a lot of parallels between this and Jennifer's Body, such as the opposites-attract dynamic between the sisters, the blood-hungry transformation, and even the makeover moment reveal that happens during an iconic slow-motion, walking down the hallway scene. Costume designer Lea Carlson put Ginger and Brigitte in oversized cardigans, maxi skirts, thin choker necklaces, and animal skull jewelry. Forgot Gilmore Girls fall fashion, it's all about Ginger Snaps werewolf-girl style! We also talk about House of Usher Raymond and the Y2Kills exhibit at Mystic Museum in LA, and we reminisce about going to Universal Studios Halloween Horror Night back in the day. Plus, Blaire makes an excellent case for more 'goth moms' in movies.

Keeping with our October whores4horror theme, this episode is on the feminist horror flick Run Sweetheart Run, one of Blaire's faves! Cherie (Ella Balinska) is a single mom and secretary at an LA law firm who has to go to dinner with her boss' client. Sure, he may be hot and rich, but he's actually a bloodthirsty demon who chases her all around the city. Dating in LA is hard! Costume designer Nadine Haders used touches of symbolic red throughout the film and other interesting choices, like a decorated military jacket and karate suits. Other things we discuss? Oh, just the great Hoe Bag vs. Slut Kit debate, men in gray sweatpants, and Blaire reminisces about her interesting night at Schwartz and Sandy's (for all your Vanderpump peeps). Tune in, now!

What are you waiting for?! The next installment of Marie and Blaire's horror faves for October is "I Know What You Did Last Summer" with costume design by Catherine Adair (Desperate Housewives, Fate: The Winx Saga, Perry Mason). We've already done the sequel (as we sometimes go backward on this here pod), but now is the time to celebrate our Croaker Queen Helen Shivers's (Sarah Michelle Gellar) totally modern cut-out dress and sophisticated New York-inspired 'fits. We also talk about Julie's (Jennifer Love Hewitt) cozy sweaters, crop tops, and Paddington Bear hat, Barry's (Ryan Philippe) preppy sweaters, the '90s trend of dog tag necklaces and military fatigues, and the risks of wearing tons of jewelry when you have a vengeful, hook-swinging killer on the loose. Then for Cosmic Costumes, Marie tries to analyze Helen and Julie's sun signs. Other topics of discussion include Marie's week of being Ms. Goop Paltrow, her 24-hour trip to see Lady Gaga sing jazz in Las Vegas, and her psychic medium reading, while Blaire clears up the difference between Timothy Olyphant and Josh Duhamel, and makes a case for all of us to watch a movie called "The VelociPastor."
