SCREAM QUEENS (2015 - ?)

CHANEL, PASTELS & NIGHTMARES
inside the delicately deadly world of Scream Queens

Like the rest of the internet, I've been sucked into the girlishly hued vortex that is Ryan Murphy's latest train wreck tour-de-force. Logical characterization and narrative coherency be damned, you HAVE to admire a show that commits this hard to its feathery cotton candy aesthetic.

Borrowing heavily from Clueless (in terms of outlandish prints, mini-skirt & sweater sets, kneesocks, and general 90s nostalgia) and Heathers (in terms of monochromatic color designs and murderous girl gangs who happen to share a single name), costume designed Lou Eyrich has cultivated a strikingly fashionable atmosphere that lends a sugar-coated edge to the show.


Onto the clothes....
