For the film opening, since our film is about a teen romantic drama we decided to get inspiration from 90's films. Our film will be taking place in the 90's. We decided on this decade since many styles from then have returned and are trending today. Iconic clothing items such as mom jeans, plaid, scrunchies, denim jackets, tiny sunglasses, neon, and grunge style are making a comeback. These clothing trends are especially popular amongst teens and young adults. Many of these styles are being worn by young influencers and supermodels today. This 90's trend is most popular amongst girls, since it's advertised more to them from young influencers they look to for clothing inspiration. The clothing brand, Brandy Melville targets young women from ages 16-25. They sell many 90's inspired pieces. Another clothing brand that targets that same age group is Urban Outfitters. However, they sell to both males and females. This whole vintage vibe has become a present day aesthetic.
For our female character, Lia Adams, we are making her style grungy yet still a little girly. We looked into 90's movies, Clueless and 10 Things I Hate About You for costume inspiration. In these movies plaid and other patterns are used to develop the characters. In the movie Clueless, character costumes are one of the most important aspects of that film. Like Clueless, we plan on focusing a-lot on costume and trying to make it as relatable to the 90's as possible. The character of Lia is gonna be into wearing plaid skirts, distressed mom jeans, band tees, chokers, flannels etc. For the hair we plan on following 90's hair trends such as crimping and crazy up-do's. Another hair trend popular in the 90's was the use of hair scarves or bandanas to pull back or create a headband for the hair. To add to the girly grunge style her clothing color palette can consist of red, pink, and black. In t.v. shows such as Friends, we also got inspiration from the character Rachel. Below she is seen wearing some popular outfits. Along with that the act of layering clothing was a huge trend in the 90's and still is today. Below are some pictures we gathered for costume design inspiration.
For Aaron, since he is the opposite of Lia he is going to have more of a basic/ laid back 90's look . For his costume color palette we are going to rely on blues, grays, and whites. Unlike Lia's grunge style, Aaron is going to be into 90's rap. We are going to give him more of a "skate-boarder" look. For inspiration, we researched clothing inspiration from young celebrities, such as Leonardo DiCaprio, Johnny Depp, and Brad Pitt. A popular trend for men in the 90's was the "denim on denim" look. Crew necks and baggy jeans were popular amongst men as well. Like the female trends, these male trends are popular today as well. Below are a couple of inspiration pictures we gathered for ideas.
