What’s the story behind that change?īased on what the audience knows from the special episode that focuses on Jules, her character is going through a lot of transition with her identity and her sexual identity. She is a very exciting collaborator in that way, where she is constantly thinking about how to layer her performance, not just her outfit.įrom the trailer, fans picked up on the fact that Jules’s costumes are a lot darker and sometimes less skimpy this season. She actually hand sewed it onto the choker while we were on set. Hunter asked for a piece of ribbon for a choker, and I gave her this dark green sheer ribbon, and she added the pink star beaded trim. Then, I got the Tahitian Pearl necklace for her. The combination of the pieces we had put together was something from an earlier fitting before we went down for COVID, but then we talked about having more accessories, so we made the arm sleeves. Hunter Schafer is just a joy to work with, and she collaborated with me on her New Year’s look. Usually, the easiest way for me to accomplish that is just to get a lot of good pieces and then just go in and play. Jules’s costumes remain impeccably layered this season. It’s probably one of the only things she owns that she knows where it is.” It’s like a baby blanket that gives her comfort, and I think it’s very precious to her, so it’s always somewhere. With a character like her, if she only ever wore that hoodie, she would lose it. I think we almost only ever saw her in the hoodie in season one. Just to make her character feel more well rounded. I think there was a lot of clinging to old memories in the first season, with the death of her father, and while that sweatshirt didn’t disappear-it definitely is still around-I think there’s just so much opportunity over the passage of time for us to show something besides just that sweatshirt. No spoilers, but she’s gone to rehab and come out of rehab, and she’s definitely going through it. Speaking of Rue wearing that vest, it seems like her dad’s burgundy jacket we see her wearing so often in season one doesn’t show up as much in season two. Rue (Zendaya) wore a combination of some vintage-a Jean Paul Gaultier top vest and vintage Roberto Cavalli pants. Her skirt is Orseund Iris, and she’s wearing a mesh top by this brand called Maroske Peech, and a beaded top from NIHL. Jules (Hunter Schafer) is wearing a combination of what I would consider to be cutting-edge independent designers. Then, I collaborated with Mimi Wade on Barbie Ferreira’s character Kat’s dress. I collaborated with Batsheva on Maude Apatow’s character Lexi’s outfit-We chose really bright colors, a beautiful saffron gold color and really rich fuchsia. We were shooting on film, which makes a difference with the look of everything and makes the colors really pop. Since it’s the first episode back, I just wanted everything to look really beautiful on camera. But, I think young people at that age in high school often do change up their style or try to experiment with different styles, so I didn’t feel too locked into the look of the first season. Heidi Bivens: The New Year’s Eve party episode begins a couple of weeks after the final episode of the first season, so I couldn’t really take too big of a departure for it to still feel cohesive. And this season, the color palettes overall got darker as each character grew up. But more than providing outfit inspiration, the costumes mirror each character’s progression. Against the dark plots exploring pedophilia, domestic abuse, teenage drug-dealing and violence, Bivens’s whimsical costume direction can seem paradoxical. Bivens leaned into this even further for the second season, and says she scoured the vintage racks of nearly every costume house in Los Angeles. Who among us didn’t google “cut-out flare pants” after Maddy wore them to the town’s carnival? Though set in the present, the characters of Euphoria relish in early noughties nostalgia, marked by short hemlines and clingy fabrics. Two and a half years following the show’s premiere, Euphoria, which follows the complex lives of a pack of high school students navigating love, identity, and drug addiction, still has a palpable impact on where fashion trends fall today. The journalist-turned-stylist-turned-costume designer tells Vogue she’s drawn in by a challenge and, having returned to outfit the second season of HBO’s hit series Euphoria after earning Emmy, Primetime, and CDG Award nominations for her work on the show’s debut, it’s safe to say the challenge has been met. You have her to thank for those neon swimsuits paired with ski masks in Spring Breakers, and the beyond-trendy ensembles on Euphoria (remember how good their Halloween costumes were?). Heidi Bivens knows how to dress the cool girl.
