i don’t hear ppl talk about judas’ costuming in the jcs 2012 bway revival enough (well no one really talks about this production at all but i’ve ranted about that already) and i really feel like it’s an important part of his character and his story??? i take it as his entire outfit being symbolic for how frightened and paranoid but also how traditional he is because his clothes are literally blue. blue is meant to be a color of protection and divinity in judaism. he wants to be close with god and he wants to keep himself and everyone safe more than anything to the point where he’s cloaking himself in things he knows will ensure that. i mean he literally wears a hamsa for protection, too??? it’s facing right side up so that’s definitely why he’s wearing it. the only question i have when it comes to that is, is he wearing it to protect him from himself or to protect himself from others? maybe both? honestly i could see that one going either way. but none of the other characters have any noticeable signs of keeping these kinds of things close to them. he’s the only one. and it just further strengthens how serious he is about his fear and how helpless he feels when he’s watching everyone get lost in the movement while he still has his concerns and his hesitance about it all. he’s still thinking of them and their safety. i just- i appreciate this costuming choice sm bc we can see so much of his character here. bluedas is blue for a reason i think (or maybe i just read to deeply into this and they just had a lot of blue fabric lying around but i like my idea better) i mean paul tazewell man. he knew what he was doing ( obv he’s brilliant. he did the costuming for hamilton, in the heights, and the wss film too) but yeah. absolutely obsessed with this. look at him. that’s my best friend who also has an anxiety disorder to the point it’s symbolized in his clothes.

💝Throughout February, I’ll be posting 28 unforgettable outfits from film and television that I love. I even made an original logo for this series! My second FebruWEARy pick: Anita’s yellow dress from the “America” musical sequence in Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story is absolutely glorious. The way it moves with such purpose makes it more than just an outfit— it’s an extension of Anita herself. This is really just another masterful layer to Ariana DeBose’s performance that rightfully won her an Oscar. She effortlessly controls the dress in order for it to become part of the performance, instead of just something she is wearing. Not to mean, she looks breathtakingly beautiful in it! The complete rearrangement of the tone and staging of this musical number for the 2021 adaptation really enriched the material. Usually, this number is contained to one small space and the choreography is very confrontational and cramped to accommodate it—and while the dance number is still fantastic, it doesn’t serve the story as efficiently as it should. This film takes it off the rooftop and out into the city. By doing so, Spielberg allows it to not only breathe but give it an entirely new life. The choreography really elevates the storytelling as it becomes an outlet for exploration and expression, embodying a spectrum of emotions instead of just a verbal duel. And DeBose never once gets lost or outshined by her surroundings—although, I believe @arianadebose would be equally as magnetic in her performance wearing any color. But it’s important to recognize that costume designer Paul Tazewell was able to create a dress for Anita that expresses her hope for the future, zest for life, and the newfound joy she feels now that she’s in America. It’s bright yellow coloring makes her enthusiasm infectious and the red pedicoat pops with a fiery passion. It’s so much more than just a beautiful dress.💘 #februweary #fashion #puns #myart #anita #arianadebose #westsidestory #westsidestorymovie https://www.instagram.com/p/CogoSoqtRuI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
