The “Cyrano” Costume Designer on Creating the Film’s Beautiful Looks

February 26, 2022 at 12:00AM Image Source: Everett Collection For costume designer Massimo Cantini Parrini, helping to remake the classic “Cyrano” story into a sweeping movie musical presented a formidable challenge. If creating hundreds of romantic, era-appropriate costumes for the cast to dance and sword-fight in wasn’t chaotic enough, he also had to do it during a global pandemic. “It was very difficult,” Parrini tells POPSUGAR. “I only had one month of preproduction for this film, but thanks to God, I kept making the costumes in the workshop I opened in Sicily during the whole shoot. We sewed until the last day and created about 750 new costumes made exclusively for this wonderful film.” The effort was, of course, worth it - and not just because the film’s costumes have been nominated for an Oscar. “Cyrano,” starring Emmy award-winning actor Peter Dinklage and…

This Canadian Designer on Creating Issa Rae-Approved Jewellery

February 25, 2022 at 07:41PM Can any industry be truly sustainable? Ashley Alexis McFarlane, owner of Canadian jewellery brand Omi Woods, thinks not. Unlike a certain bejewelled House of Gucci character, McFarlane does, however, believe in being ethical. “Living 100 per cent off the land is the only way to be sustainable, and even then humans will have some impact,” she says. “I do believe in being ethical. Both words are thrown around a lot.” Omi Woods’ treasures are created with fair trade African gold sourced from small-scale artisanal mines that use traditional low-impact methods. Its silver is sourced from casting houses that use a blend of recycled and pure silver. “Sustainability is also about relationships.
