Who designed the costumes for The Suicide Squad?

I was pleasantly impressed by the wardrobe given to actress Margot Robbie who plays “Harley Quinn” in the upcoming movie, The Suicide Squad! Although she is insane in the film, she is, well must I say… well-dressed! I absolutely loved the costuming in the film and Harley just looked amazing rocking a tattered ball gown while assassinating people lol! I love her character because she is kick-ass but something about her made me want to learn more about her!

One of my favorite scenes in the movie is when you see Harley Quinn do acrobatic skills while her guns are blazing, it’s so good! All while an animated explosion of flowers and tweety birds fly around while she does it, its gruesome but oh-so-good.

One thing about Harley Quinn, you can put her in any terrible situation but she uses her innocence and sex appeal to get her out of it! She is also pretty good with weaponry as well.

Costume Designer Judianna Makovsky did a phenomenal job on all the costuming!

Harley’s been through some things, as you can see, by this point in the film [the dress has seen some battle action and damage]. It started off as like, a very glamorous gown, and here we are. I think we are down to three versions of the dress… we got to figure out–trying to work it into a mood, where we rip off one bit to do some cool fight s*** with it.

She has a mission outfit to start with that’s very different. She didn’t come on the mission wearing a ball gown. Although with Harley, she could have been like, ‘I just like it, this is what I wanted, I wanted to be pretty today’… My baseball bat is next to my bed back in L.A… I’ve got other weapons in this one. Many, many weapons, but mainly one actually.

From the horribly beautiful mind of writer/director James Gunn comes Warner Bros. Pictures’ superhero action adventure “The Suicide Squad,” featuring a collection of the most degenerate delinquents in the DC lineup. In theaters on August 6 and available on HBO Max.

Welcome to hell—a.k.a. Belle Reve, the prison with the highest mortality rate in the US of A. Where the worst Super-Villains are kept and where they will do anything to get out—even join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X. Today’s do-or-die assignment? Assemble a collection of cons, including Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Captain Boomerang, Ratcatcher 2, Savant, King Shark, Blackguard, Javelin and everyone’s favorite psycho, Harley Quinn. Then arm them heavily and drop them (literally) on the remote, enemy-infused island of Corto Maltese. Trekking through a jungle teeming with militant adversaries and guerrilla forces at every turn, the Squad is on a search-and- destroy mission with only Colonel Rick Flag on the ground to make them behave…and Amanda Waller’s government techies in their ears, tracking their every movement. And as always, one wrong move and they’re dead (whether at the hands of their opponents, a teammate, or Waller herself). If anyone’s laying down bets, the smart money is against them—all of them.

The film stars Margot Robbie (“Birds of Prey,” “Bombshell”), Idris Elba (“Avengers: Infinity War”), John Cena (upcoming HBO Max series “Peacemaker,” “F9”), Joel Kinnaman (“Suicide Squad”), Jai Courtney (the “Divergent” franchise), Peter Capaldi (“World War Z,” BBC’s “Doctor Who” ), David Dastmalchian (upcoming “Dune,” “Ant- Man and the Wasp”), Daniela Melchior (“Parque Mayer”), Michael Rooker (the

Gunn (the “Guardian of the Galaxy” films) directed from his own screenplay, based on characters from DC. The film was produced by Charles Roven and Peter Safran, with Zack Snyder, Deborah Snyder, Walter Hamada, Chantal Nong Vo, Nikolas Korda and Richard Suckle executive producing.

Gunn’s creative team included director of photography Henry Braham (“Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2”), production designer Beth Mickle (“Captain Marvel”), editors Fred Raskin (“Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2,” “Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood”) and Christian Wagner (the “Fast & Furious” films) and Oscar-nominated costume designer Judianna Makovsky (“Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2,” “Avengers: Endgame,” “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone”).
