Debbie Millman Instagram – Wicked. West Side Story. Hamilton. These stories have lots of iconic, memorable characters. And those characters? Well, they all need iconic and memorable costumes. Costumes that align with a character, that are in harmony with the set design but that also capture the viewer’s imagination. Paul Tazwell has designed the costumes of Ariana Grande’s Glinda, Cynthia Erivo’s Elphaba, Rachel Zeler’s Maria, Daveed Diggs’ Jefferson, Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamilton and many, many, many more. For three decades Paul has been designing costumes for theater, film, television, opera and ballet. He’s won an Emmy, a Tony and has just been nominated for an Academy Award for his groundbreaking work on @wickedmovie. Paul joined me on Design Matters to talk about his career and how he goes about costuming some of the most memorable characters of our time. Link to listen in my bio. Thank you @paultazewell for joining me for this sparkly conversation! | Posted on 11/Feb/2025 22:57:08
