10 Ways to Make The Favourite’s Look Yours

This Oscars season brings Director Yorgos Lanthimos’ (Also known for "The Lobster" and "The Killing of a Sacred Deer") latest film, "The Favourite," to the limelight, with nine nominations, including Best Picture and — unsurprisingly — Best Costume Design. “Unsurprisingly” because its wardrobe was designed by Sandy Powell, a three-time Oscar-winning British designer also known for "Mary Poppins," "Cinderella," "The Young Victoria" and more. Powell brings the story of frail Queen Anne, a close friend and advisor Lady Sarah Churchill and new palace servant Abigail Hill to life with an 18th-century aristocratic style rooted in a black and white palette, using a range of contemporary silhouettes and fabrics like cotton, canvas and more. Hair and makeup designer Nadia Stacey was also instructed by Lanthimos to keep the three leads mostly make-up free to let their stories, not their lip glosses, shine. If you plan on throwing an Oscar party — and want to go all out — this our advice in bringing Powell’s vision to life in the modern world. Get ready to outshine your guests.
