Prepare for an epic battle, and not between Peter Pan and Captain Hook! Ariel loves this movie and holds it very dear, Melinda hates this movie and thinks it's an emotional betrayal of the Peter Pan story. But because we don't shy away from Important Issues, we bring the debate to you. What they can agree on: the costumes are great.

Get ready for the emotional gauntlet that is back to back tragedies. But who better to lead you through it than Baz Luhrmann, the man who invented feelings. Melinda and Ariel marvel at the sumptuous worlds of these movies and the masterful designers who brought them to life. The greatest thing we ever learned, is just to love, and be loved in return.

The Matrix has you...and us. We're fangirling out on this episode, sorry not sorry. What can you expect from good honest millennial nerds? We tried to look at it with fresh eyes, don't know that we totally succeeded there. There are some moments of background noise, we asked for a clean program to run this recording but it doesn't always work out that way. Follow the white rabbit.

This episode is a pretzel of various lines of thinking all twisting around each other, aka fitting for a time travel movie. We love the future fashion predictions and seeing characters at different life and fashion stages. And justice for poor Jennifer, they did her so dirty in this movie. We discuss trivia from IMDB and again take it for gospel fact because we didn't look anywhere else. Jump in the car for this journey, but try not to get chloroformed.

Pals, this is not Star Wars ok? It's totally unique and (for legal reasons)  any similarities to other events in a galaxy far, far away are purely coincidental. Besides, this movie has enough going on that you won't be sad. We've got a lot of alien attire to cover from terrifying robot dogs, multi-faced singers, polyester medieval costumes, and of course a lot of sweaty faces because this is the 70's.

In addition to our sci fi series, we are going to cover the new season of RIngs of Power, talking costumes and enjoying some fantasy content.

Buckle up friends because we were really on one for this episode. And how could you not be for a movie like Barbarella? This movie sent our brains into outer space. If you are looking to learn something, you will not find it here. What you will find are killer dolls, killer parakeets, killer organs, killer lakes, and a lot of killer costumes.

We kick off Season 2 with Ever After because this movie was massively formative for both of us. And I hope it has a special place in your heart too. If not, we invite you to check it out and embrace the magic. Don't we all want to live in a world where Leonardo da Vinci is our fairy godmother? Where the handsome prince is a bit of a himbo and you can help him discover the concept of Human Rights? The Brothers Grimm really screwed this story up in their book, fortunately Drew Barrymore is here to set the record straight. What's that phrase you always use? Ah yes...Once Upon A Time...

Season 1 of Haute Set we are covering 100 years of sci-fi film talking about costume design. Please join us as we watch the development of this genre with our broken millennial brains. 

Theme music: Cassette Deck by Basketcase 

Ariel and Melinda reflect on their miniature costume recreations from the show. Which they totally finished on time and they are not feverishly trying to complete (!) They each picked one costume from Rings of Power and recreated the design on a mini scale model form. There was so much embroidery, beading, and block printing, oh my! And it added an extra layer to their respect for professional artists who do this work all day everyday. Listen in to hear all about it

Season 2 will be focusing on the movies that shaped the taste and aesthetics of the millennial generation. Ariel and Melinda will be focusing on those films that are near and dear to their hearts  (namely these 2 millennials in particular (Hi!))  We have each developed what we consider to be essential viewing for this generation we will be comparing, contrasting, and sometimes strongly contrasting. Please join us for another season full of feelings and light on facts.

We chat about where the season is leaving us and appreciate all the distressing that we get to see in this episode, along with a couple new costume reveals.

We are talking all things gross and grimy in Fury Road and absolutely singing the praises of the costume and makeup teams on this movie.

Hi friends! Our next episode will be released next Tuesday! Today is election day for us and we are trying to make it through the week mentally, spiritually, emotionally. 

If you are able to vote and have not yet, please vote!! The future is in our hands. 

See you next week. 

We're processing the rise of fascism in real time here folks. This episode may not be what you need right now! At all! But we needed to do it in order to move forward with why we are making this show. Join us if you feel up to it.

And we still are talking about movies here- and only kind of talking about costumes. We cover the movies that taught millennials how to fight fascism. Ariel selected V for Vendetta and Melinda selected The Truman Show. Honorable mentions (and mild spoilers for) The Hunger Games, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and Dick.

Our regularly scheduled programming will continue next week when we get back on track with The Mummy. For now, take care of yourselves, take care of your people, and take care of your vegetable gardens. Time to batten down the hatches.

Come One, Come All! Capitalist Queens and Warriors fighting The Man! 1995 had something for everyone. We are watching important movies that established teen culture and gave us fashion icons to aspire to. These kids were so cool and had it all figured out. In retrospect, they are babies! Mere children. However, the clothes are timeless. Dust off those plaid miniskirts and grab your combat boots or your jimmy choos!

In a person's life- are Facts or Stories more important? That tension is the heart of this movie and a question I don't think we even attempt to answer. But we do love to explore how clothing can be used to reveal emotional truth, heighten mundane events into the stuff of legend, and help someone shape their identity. And for such a great costume movie, there was virtually no information we could find about how it came together. So it's just us! 

At about the 18 minute mark, there's some background noise as there was a fence being put up nearby.

It's dark, it's moody, there are suits everywhere, it must be Batman. This episode we delve into 2 versions of Gotham that reflect the times they were made in. And the gangs all here, most notably The Joker. But he's got enough style to fill a whole gang. The costumes in both movies help delicately walk the line between the real world and cartoon world. 

Season 2 is rapidly coming to an end! You either die a hero, or you pod long enough to become the villain.

Melinda finally gets revenge for having to watch Hook earlier this season by making Ariel revisit a movie she never wanted to see again. In keeping with the themes of this movie, it's the most contentious episode to date. But it's a clean fight. At least something that can be agreed on, the costumes here are perfect.

We all know why this was such a formative movie for a lot of people, do we really have to spell it out? Beyond the beautiful (H O T) and charming cast, there is sadly a lot to unpack here regarding colonization, culture appropriation, and exoticization in Hollywood. And we examine how our education system set us up to recognize and question none of this at all. But at least we got to dress up like Roman Senators and Cave Men at school! Join us in the sandy snow globe that is this tale of adventure.

Bonjour ma cherie! Welcome to the new season of the show! We are embracing color and big design. What better way to kick it off than the movie that spawned a million twee alt girls? Amelie is a style role model who is deep in her vigilante era. And the world she lives in is a place of beauty. The harmony of costumes, sets, and props in this movie is absolutely stunning.

No fantasy season would be complete without Alice! And there are so many versions of Alice to choose from! We decided to go with this fascinating TV Movie from 1999 that has many, many familiar faces. Including the face of Whoopi Goldberg pasted onto the Cheshire Cat. Please follow us down the rabbit hole for this one where we question how you could possibly get more British than this story.

Wow this film is gorgeous from beginning to end. A testament to the idea of pared down graphic design done by true artists. Please check the movie out if you are intrigued. And then give this a listen! Or just listen anyway! Live your life
