Diamonds (and costumes) are a girl's best friend! Directed by Andrew Dominik, Blonde boldly reimagines the life of Marilyn Monroe, exploring the split between her public and private selves. For this week's special bonus episode of The Art of Costume Blogcast, Spencer is joined by CDG Award-Winning costume designer Jennifer Johnson to talk about her incredible work on Blonde. Topics include the in-depth background research needed for this project, recreating the Gentlemen Prefer Blondes dress, the legacy of costume designer William Travilla, designing costumes for black-and-white scenes, and the personal collaboration with actress Ana de Armas.
