Beautiful Creatures: Lena's Dark Dress
Dark Secrets Revealed in Costume Design
Lena's Iconic Costume
In the highly anticipated film adaptation of "Beautiful Creatures," costume designer Jeffrey Kurland faced the daunting task of creating the wardrobe for Lena Duchannes, a character shrouded in mystery and darkness. The result is a striking and evocative costume that hints at the character's hidden depths.
Drawing inspiration from the gothic undertones of the novel, Kurland crafted a costume that embodies Lena's enigmatic nature. The raven-black hair, well-worn boots, and intricate black ink designs on her hands give Lena an air of both rebellion and vulnerability.
While Lena's overall aesthetic leans towards a hipster vibe, she will also be seen wearing more formal attire. At Gatlin High's winter formal, the tension between her true nature and the expectations of society comes to a head when some of the girls ruin her dress by pouring liquid soap on her and her companion, Ethan.
