Los Angeles Times: If Willy Wonka set off for Cirque du Soleil and passed through “Bridgerton,” he’d be ready for “Wicked.” But the movie musical’s costumes aren’t just a mashup of looks we’ve seen before; they’re an elegant reinvention of iconic “Wizard of Oz” references and a joyous summation of its designer’s career.

It's been 113 days since the first Wicked movie came out (jokingly, I have called them 113 days of intermission), and I still want to make every single one of Galinda’s dresses from the film. More than the dresses from the first film, I want to make Galinda’s blue Cinderella-aesthetic dress in the second film that she sings Thank Goodness in (my favorite song in the show). I just adore Tazwell’s use of pattern and monochrome layered designs to create these beautiful silhouettes and really give a sense of character beyond the dialogue used in the show. Also, I’m a complete sucker for the color pink, and Tazwell uses a lot of it, much to my happiness. The leaks for Wicked: For Good are so few, but those that have come out of the costumes are absolutely immaculate. I can’t wait to laugh, cry, and celebrate when the second act comes out, and my full congratulations to Paul Tazewell.
