Costume designer Paul Tazewell reveals new looks for Glinda and Elphaba in 'Wicked' film

Costume designer Paul Tazewell has created new looks for the characters Glinda and Elphaba in the upcoming film adaptation of "Wicked." His designs draw inspiration from both the original musical and the classic film "The Wizard of Oz." Glinda's iconic bubble dress will be in pink, featuring translucent fabrics and butterfly imagery. In contrast, Elphaba's wardrobe includes darker colors and nature-inspired textures, reflecting her character's connection to the environment and her backstory. The film, set at Shiz University, showcases the characters' growth over a school year. It features a range of costumes for various activities, with a theatrical release scheduled for this week.
