The wardrobe team consists of designers, pattern makers,
seamstresses, and wardrobe representatives on set to
ensure the costumes are fitted and sitting appropriately
for all scenes.
- Their task was to create
unique 'looks' for several superheroes and villains
and a range of weird, classy and eccentric characters.
Commander Vermont, while adopting a military/combat
style, was also dressed in flowery camouflage uniform.
Octavia was always immaculately dressed, usually in
purple, while Violet had bright-coloured wigs and weird
but classy costumes. Josh Montana adopted the all American
college hero image, while his alter-ego, Silver Lining
the Superhero, sported a tight lycra pink full suit
complete with matching fluffy G string and pink cape.
Sabrina was cast as the sultry sex kitten of the show
and was always seen in tight and short hot pink outfits
with matching accessories such as hot pink fingernails
and high hot pink shoes.
- The Aliens costumes
included a specially adapted tail that poked through
the back of the spaceship seat. They also had webbed
feet and reptile-like skin costumes.
All
costumes were crucial in identifying the characters.
Colour was a huge aspect when designing costumes and
some characters wore colours that identified their personalities:
-Octavia - Purple
-Jet - Blue
-Sabrina - Hot pink
-Josh (Silver Lining superhero) - Hot pink-Anthony/Antonia
- Turquoise/Red
-Violet - wigs
-Beanie - Blue
-The specialist costumes
were created in-house with 'tacky and spoofy' accessories
added for special effect, while other more plain and
unadorned garments were purchased through local stores.
