mldallasmagazine.com: Lily Gladstone cemented her transformation into Mollie Kyle Burkhart the first time she dressed head-to-toe for the role.
“She just became Mollie in that fitting,” says Jacqueline West, costume designer for Martin Scorcese’s Killer of the Flower Moon. “[Lily] said the same thing. She's a very incredible actress, very method. And putting on those clothes, she wanted to take them home and wear them, and we let her so she could really get under Mollie's skin.”

I haven’t seen Killers of the Flower Moon, however this article was fascinating to read. I love learning about the details and intricacies that designers put into their work, and there is so much meaning behind each of Mollie’s outfits which were so interesting to learn about. I love the idea that her clothing is her armor, and think it’s amazing how the actress would wear them home, and felt as if the clothing really transformed her experience. It really speaks to the designer’s incredible work to delve into that character and create clothing that is so representative of the character that it alters the actor’s experience. I especially liked learning about the differences between the sisters’ clothing, and how each of them approached society and the world they were faced with differently, and so expressed that in their dress. It was fascinating to learn about all the research they were doing on this project, and how in-depth they went!
