'People] are so petrified of the silence, and the powerful shouting silence, this costume brings...' When you're done with the HandmaidsTaleFinale, check out our Q&A w/ the former costume designer:

. That was very emotional. It was sort of out-of-body emotional. The kind of weeping one does when you lose someone, you know?The costume went to the Smithsonian

For me, one of the things that’s complicated and fascinating about the way the costume functions on the show and in the way people have been using it at protests is that the dress is doing at least two things all the time. In Gilead, for the women who wear them, they symbolize sexual servitude; for the ruling classes, they symbolize fertility and even hope. In the protests, people are using them as a sign of unity and strength between women, but also as a symbol of oppression.

What I did was do the same thing in the costumes. Commander Waterford and Commander Lawrence, who was introduced at the end of Season 2, they’re saying:As the architects of Gilead, this is how we will control the masses in our new world. We will shroud the women. We’ll make them red so that you can see them. And we’ll make them chaste.

What you were saying earlier really struck me—when you were talking about how it should be familiar and universal but not abstract. It’s uncanny because it’s not right. There’s something about everything that’s going on that is not the way it should be. And yet, at the same time, it’s very recognizable. And I think that’s one of the brilliant things about your design.

It was the patriarchy’s stance on abortion that every young woman has to pass going and coming from that spot on the highway—and it’s next to the highway, not even far away; it’s so blatant. I just thought, dear God, you can create fictions every day, all day. You can delve from reality every day, all day in your work. But there’s nothing like a power sucker punch like that.
