The Art of Costume Design pt. 2 (feat. Ashley Kae Snyder & Jessica McLaughlin)

This week, Bella is reunited with Ashley Kae Snyder and Jessica McLaughlin for round two of three films with exquisite costume design.

• Bella kicks things off with the audience pick, Poor Things (2023), where Holly Waddington’s whimsical and fantastical designs shape Bella Baxter’s strange, yet beautiful journey of self-discovery.

• Next, Ashley introduces Orlando (1992), Sally Potter’s groundbreaking gender-bending tale of romance, life, and identity, with Sandy Powell's costumes that transport us through centuries of fashion.

• Finally, Ashley brings us home with The Adventures of Priscilla: Queen of the Desert (1994), the beloved Australian queer road trip cult classic, featuring dazzling designs by Lizzy Gardiner and Tim Chappel.

Together, we unpack how these costumes do more than just dress the characters—they reveal inner truths, mark transformations, and guide us through complex journeys of self-discovery.
