Taking a break from her time working on the set of The Bear, Ally Vickers joins me again on the pod to talk about her amazing work in Hit Man. The Rick Linklater film starring Glen Powell which came out on Netflix this week is a joy to watch, and despite the many different looks, the Louisiana Heat and a modest budget, Ally had a blast collaborating with the Makeup and Costume Department and even Glen Powell himself, on the many different personas of our favorite Hit Man. Listen as she shares stories from set and reveals some of her favorite products. And let me know what you thought of the movie!

Step into the shadowy world of fast fashion and its disconcerting impact on society and our planet in this episode of Look Behind The Look. Let's unveil the chilling truths behind the glitz of the fashion industry through an enlightening conversation with director Eva Orner. Her documentary which premiered at SXSW, and is now streaming on HBO Max, exposes the unsettling practices of Brandy Melville and the broader implications of fast fashion.

Eva's film reveals the exploitation and environmental havoc wrought by this multi-trillion-dollar industry. From the deceptive allure of social media marketing to the stark reality of one-size-fits-all clothing's exclusivity, the discussion dives deep into the heart of the issues. The conversation also tackles the complex challenge of sustainable consumption, debunking the myth that eco-friendly fashion is a luxury only the wealthy can afford.

This episode isn't just about the dark side of fashion—it's a call to action, a guide to making more ethical choices, and a tribute to the brave young women who dared to speak out against industry giants. Enjoy the episode and tell us what you think!

Are you watching Barbie right now? Thinking about it? Whether you have seen it once, twice, or 5 times like my son... You have noticed a couple of things- Barbie's hair at the dance party and the flawless highlighting of all the characters. After a chase of all chases, Ivana Primorac finally shared her secrets with me. Yes, I realize her secrets are not-so-secret as they have been shared in various interviews, but this is special because it's our interview. I was humbled to speak to Ivana- I've been reaching out to her since the early months of COVID because I wanted to learn about her work on FX's PISTOL, but she was always tied up on a project as she is insanely in demand. I was lucky to grab her between interviews during a press week while she was
in Croatia for a quickie. I'm excited to share with you all the
techniques she shared with me AND of course- the innovative way she kept the bounce in Barbie's dance party hair. Enjoy!Watch Barbie here http://tinyurl.com/watchbarbieonmax

My favorite movie this year has been SALTBURN. There. I said it. I
was thrilled to speak to Makeup and Hair Designer Siân Miller about her work in this film. Whether this polarizing film was one that you loved or hated, it is
coming out on digital Dec. 21 via AMAZON Prime. So gather the family 'round and enjoy! I loved talking to Siân about the looks behind Carey Mulligan's visually stunning cameo, Jacob Elordi and Alison Oliver's matching tattoos with secret messages and did I mention Jacob's hair secrets?
Because we cover all that too...
Siân's meticulous approach and attention to detail is what made this
film the glorious puzzle that you love to decode. Enjoy this conversation and stay away from that bathtub!

Hair Designer Jaime Leigh McIntosh and Makeup Designer Luisa Abel walk us through the process on set under Christopher Nolan's direction while they collaborated to create convincing looks for Cillian Murphy, Robert Downey Jr., and Emily Blunt that would span across wildly different projections (IMAX and 70 MM) and Black and White as well as Color. I'm sorry for the minimal visuals- the studio sent approved images which I wanted to respect, but in order to see Jaime Leigh and Luisa's extraordinary work better, please please please see the film which is out now on digital.Jaime Leigh also hosts the podcast, Last Looks which is a must-sub for everyone in the industry- check it out if you aren't subscribed already!

The new film from A24, Sophia Coppola's PRISCILLA, is an undisputed feast for the eyes. Released on this past weekend, you hopefully got yourself to the theater to see the incredible detail that was put in to the costumes, set design, hair, makeup and cinematography. As a frequent visitor to Graceland myself and a person who has been known to study every last detail of Priscilla, Elvis and Lisa Marie Presley's aesthetic, I was truly impressed with the visuals because they honored the historical detail while also being unmistakingly Sophia's vision. I loved having Hair Designer Cliona Furey back on the pod to talk about her unbelievable work (no doubt it has been in your feed this entire week!). It's deservedly getting tons of Awards Buzz, and you will love hearing about how she did it, straight from Cliona herself.
Enjoy!

THE BEAR. It's your favorite show and these are your favorite characters. I am breaking my hiatus to bring you this episode because you know we all need it. Ignacia Soto-Aguilar will tell you in this episode about THE LASH in episode 6!

Listen as she tells me what it was like shooting Episode 6 "Fishes", that incredible Christmas dinner scene where ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE. And Will Poulter's tatts based on his personal story - he needed nurses everywhere and hot sauce bottles?! - as well as the Brownies that he made himself and brought to set in this very special bonus episode about this very special show.

This week features a conversation between Oscar Award Winner Judy Chin and Emmy Award Winner Jason Collins of Autonomous FX, Inc.
Dead Ringers starring Rachel Weisz, now on Amazon Prime, is a limited series based on the original film which starred Jeremy Irons. Judy is the makeup department head and Jason heads up the SFX Team on the show. These two are masters of their craft, that much is certain, but what I really enjoyed talking with them about was the extraordinary way that they approach the subject matter of the show through artistry. We also discuss the observation that audiences are shocked by the "graphic nature" of the scenes in the birthing center of this series, yet are capable of consuming content that is violent and gory without commenting on it. Hear how they worked together on this challenging project and please let me know what you think of Dead Ringers!

I had a great time talking to Avery Plewes about the huge responsibility she carried by costume designing Scream VI. Entering this beloved franchise and grabbing Ghostface by the... well... face, she conquered a huge job of ensuring the fans felt appreciated and the beloved installments were respectfully honored. Listen to how she assembled the museum with her team, and helped to make Gale Weathers look the best she's ever looked (IMHO).

I'm thrilled to present this week's episode with Oscar Nominee, Camille Friend. With over 2 decades in the film business, she is a legendary hair department head of epic films including many MARVEL favorites- and of course Black Panther and Wakanda Forever. I loved this episode because I caught Camille directly after she received some news that at one time would've sent her spiraling, but instead she offers strength and advice for artists who have to handle the roller coaster ride better known as their career. Listen as she shares how she created her Oscar-Nominated looks in Wakanda Forever.

Camille is also the founder of HAIR SCHOLARS-

This week's Episode is a conversation I had with Oscar and BAFTA nominee, Heike Merker about her work as makeup and hair department head on the Netflix film ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT which is getting a tremendous amount of attention this awards season. Finding herself quite literally on the Front Lines of this project, we talk about her challenges, the physical demands and how she discovered the ability to paint artistically using mud, dirt, pigments and even macha (!) to create stunning, painterly looks that convey the duality of war and the inner life of the film's protagonist. This was a tremendously hard film to make. Listen to Heike talk (hilariously) about getting so stuck in the mud that she literally couldn't move one inch. And how she found inspiration on set and in the moment for the film's signature macha mask look. Tune in!

A delightful conversation with New Zealand's own costume designer, Jane Holland, where she opens up about the intense craftsmanship that went into Spike Spiegel's (actor John Cho's) iconic blue suit in Cowboy Bebop - the tailoring, influences from the graphic novel, the gorgeous lining only actor John Cho knew about, and a secret 'easter egg' of sorts: handmade buttons with a water symbol - all part of a legacy costume (one the character wears the whole project!). Also, the hundreds of versions that were made of the blue suit for all the action sequences. Jane discusses the heartbreak of the shows sudden cancellation by Netflix after creating an entire studio workshop for the characters' intricate wardrobe. Jane discusses throwing herself into projects and how if you don't go all in, you aren't taking a risk, so NO REGRETS. From her beginnings working on Jane Campion's Oscar-winning The Piano to Xena: Warrior Princess, Jane sings the praises of New Zealand's tightly knit and vital film community as well as her recent colabs with her son!

To celebrate I wanted to talk to 2 women, Cynthia O'Rourke who was the Makeup Department Head for the film A Mouth Full of Air, and Catherine Deriana who was the Makeup Department Head for the film God's Country which just celebrated it's premier at Sundance 2022.

I picked these two and combined them in the same episode because these women both worked on films with very strong female leads and those parts were played by powerful female talents.

Listen to Cynthia O'Rourke talk about crafting Amanda Seyfried's looks in A Mouth Full of Air, and Catherina Deriana speak about working with Thandiewe Newton on the unforgettable film God's Country.

This week I sat with (should I say zoomed with?) Oscar award winner Alessandro Bertolazzi and BAFTA nominated Sian Miller. This is the duo behind the epic 18th century looks in the film Cyrano which finally will be coming to theaters Feb 25. In this interview Sian and Alessandro tell me about their Baroque Bubble that kept production going through the height of COVID, of a volcano that contributed to Alessandro's makeup looks, and as commonly discussed by the greatest artists, it's never about the awards, but about the integrity of the work. Both are nominated for the BAFTA this year for their work in Cyrano and when you see the film, you will understand why.

The insane life of Dianne Brill began in Wisconsin, then London in her early twenties, and by some fluke of a visa problem New York City got her, thank God. By 1985 she was featured in the New York Times as the reigning queen of NYC parties. Andy Warhol famously said of Dianne, if you were at a party and Dianne Brill was there, you knew you were at the right party. Her supersonic beauty, skintight rubber fashion, and club appearances drove the paparazzi insane and made her officially known as the queen of the night. She was at the top of what became known as the Fab 500, literally the 500 coolest people that were on any New York city guest list in the 1980s. We're talking Iggy Pop, Robert Mapplethorpe, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Annie Leibovitz, Steven Klein, Debbie Harry, Mario Testino. And of course Andy Warhol. She was married to Rudolf Pieper the owner of the legendary club, Danceteria where her legendary status was cemented. Everywhere Dianne went she was adored and always made a statement. She’s acted in films like iconic downtown NYC film, Slaves of New York, and For Love or Money with Michael J. Fox. She wrote a book, “Boobs, Boys and High Heels or How to Get Dressed in Just Under Six Hours.” She started a clothing line and she was dressing Duran Duran and Prince, walking in runway shows for Thierry Mugler, Jean Paul Gaultier, Vivienne Westwood. She even has a mannequin created after her figure…She started her own cosmetics line, Dianne Brill Cosmetics, and now she is on Instagram and YouTube with her channel, The Brill of it All. Dianne Brill was truly way ahead of the curve for being famous for being fabulous, way before social media likes followers and the notion that people are just famous for no discernible reason. The thing about Dianne is she's famous because she created a sensation, a fury, she represented what it meant to be everywhere at all times a sensation, and anyone that watched her walk across the room. We had such an amazing time going down memory lane and celebrating her incredible and illustrious life. And don’t forget to wish our Aries queen a Happy Birthday today! Enjoy xo
