The lecture Space Costumes – from fur bikinis to space suits clarifies some big questions about how the various costumes in sci-fi movies and series were made. So what kind of materials the costumes are made of or can be made of and how they were and are made.
A small outline of the sci-fi costume world should give a good overview of the versatility of the costumes and clarify some ‘hidden’ secrets. It will go into the beginnings of the sci-fi genre and into the world of the flashiest costumes.
During the lecture there will be a small FAQ-round, where you are welcome to ask one or two questions about the lecture topic.
There will be some illustrative material to show how some costume constructions work and what is hidden behind one or the other “hidden” costume secret. Be curious!
