Sandy Powell on Creating Costumes for The Young Victoria

Backstage at the 82nd Academy Awards in 2010, after having just been awarded an Oscar for Costume Design for The Young Victoria, Sandy Powell discusses her inspiration and creative process for her work on the film. Powell, a 10-time nominee and three-time Oscar recipient, has collaborated with director Martin Scorsese on six of his films. They discuss their collaboration and shared creative vision for costume design in video interviews that are featured in Hollywood Costume. To hear more about Powell’s process and see six of her creations, including an ensemble from Gangs of New York and a suit from The Wolf of Wall Street, visit Hollywood Costume in the historic Wilshire May Company building, the future location of the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures, at Wilshire Boulevard and Fairfax Avenue in Los Angeles. Presented by the Victoria and Albert Museum, London (V&A), and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the exhibition marks the final showing of the groundbreaking multimedia exhibition.
