I noticed that too when watching Giant
Moss Mabry designed Liz's costumes for "Giant". I worked with him once and we
talked about period costuming. He thinks that all period designers have to do
is copy portraits. He DESIGNER and will just do "fashions" for the characters.
He tries to get a period nod, but basically he just does a version of modern
clothes. He was definitely "old school" studio. He was hard to work for on an
indie, on location film because he just was used to handing the Costume Dept
head a sketch and it was made up for him. Here we are in a trailer with a
portable sewing machine.
