15 Movie Costume Mistakes That Were Immediately Spotted by Fans
Making a movie is a big, multifaceted process, and costume design is just a small part of it. However, that part alone took a lot of effort from several people and departments. The character's costumes are required to accurately represent the personality of each character as well as help the audience visualize the context and era of the film. From the costume designer to the craftsman and seamstress on set, everyone is in charge of choosing the costumes for each character in the film.
However, due to the heavy workload, there are countless opportunities for movie costume mistakes to happen, and they're more common than you might think! For example, in “The Doors", a biographical movie about 1960s rock band singer Jim Morrison, Val Kilmer's Morrison wore Ray-Bans that wasn't even produced until the 80s. Or Orlando Bloom carried an umbrella hundreds of years too early in “Troy”. We can't believe these errors made it all the way to the final edit without being discovered sooner.
So, let's take a look at 15 costume mistakes that fellow cinephiles that observant viewers just cannot overlook.
