On the heels of the return of euphoriaHBO, our EIC MelOttenberg talks to HeidiBivens, the show's costume designer, about creating fashion fantasies and the death of skinny jeans.
editor-in-chief Mel Ottenberg got on the phone with Bivens to discuss mood boarding, skinny jeans, and dressing teenage characters in designers they could never afford.EuphoriaBIVENS: Thank you for being a fan! From the very beginning, your posts about it gave me a lot of joy. It’s the best when the people I admire get a kick out of what I’m doing.really shits on season one. I’m a huge Heidi fan and I’m a huge Sam Levinson fan, but woah, this new season is really good.
OTTENBERG: Can we talk about the New Year’s Eve fashion? Fucking Cassie’s NYE look—who makes her panties? OTTENBERG: No shade on FashionNova—if you’re reading this, I want to work with you. Also, Jules’ outfit is fab. BIVENS: The mood-boarding thing is interesting. In these jobs, you’re expected to mood board, because you have to show the director and your team the visual direction you’re taking. But honestly, the way that I get ideas is so random. It’s not like I’m coming to social media and finding stuff. I’ll be walking down the street and see someone who has amazing style, or an image that catches me by surprise. I’ll save images to my phone, and over time that evolves into the inspo.
