One of the movie events of the season was released this past Friday as Wicked, the film adaptation of the Broadway musical of the same name, made its debut. This retelling of the story of the witches of Oz needed someone to bring its fantastic and larger-than-life design to life, and who better than Tony Award-Winning Costume Designer of Hamilton, and the most recent version of West Side Story, Paul Tazewell. Join Paul as he speaks with InStyle and breaks down his vision for the outfits for all of the main characters in this enthralling peek behind the curtain (but pay no attention to the man behind it).
