The Star Wars franchise features some of the most iconic costumes to ever grace the screen; from Darth Vader to Din Djarin, many of them are now rightly considered nothing short of iconic.

Elissa Alcala (Assistant Costume Designer), Devon Patterson (Costume Supervisor), and the late Shawna Trpcic (Costume Designer) are all Emmy-nominated - "Outstanding Fantasy/Sci-Fi Costumes" for their work on Ahsoka. Earlier this month, we were fortunate enough to sit down with Elissa and Devon to learn more about how they approached the Disney+ series.
As well as sharing plenty of fascinating insights into Shawna's creative process, they break down the creation of costumes worn by the heroes and villains listed above,...

Anthony Anderson is nominated in the Best Comedy Actor category at the Emmys for the fifth straight year for his role as Dre Johnson on “Black-ish.” Facing off against the likes of incumbent winner Bill Hader of “Barry” and Golden Globe winner Michael Douglas of “The Kominsky Method,” Anderson has submitted his sitcom’s 100th episode, “Purple Rain,” for judging consideration.
Written by co-executive producer Peter Saji and directed by Charles Stone III in his television comedy debut, “Purple Rain” is a tribute to the music of Prince, complete with music video reenactments that earned costumers Michelle Cole and Devon Patterson a repeat Best Contemporary Costumes nomination. Let us take a closer look at the submission.

Pros
Anderson has submitted slapstick and “very special episodes” over the years; he demonstrates further versatility by dancing and lip-syncing in “Purple Rain” to the 1980s songs “Erotic City” and “Kiss.

Purple reigned in the 100th episode of “Black-ish” last season. The milestone episode, which aired in November, paid tribute to Prince and saw each of the Johnsons reenact some of the late legend’s music videos. It was a massive undertaking, not the least for costume designer Michelle Cole.
“As soon as we got back in July 2018, we knew right away because they told us we were going to have a Prince episode,” the five-time Emmy nominee revealed at Gold Derby’s Meet the Btl Experts: Costume Design panel, moderated by this author (watch above). “Devon Patterson is my [costume] supervisor, so we started right away doing the drawings, looking for fabrics, seeing what we had to print. We started going through the music, so it took us about two months.”
Adding another wrinkle to the proceedings was the fact that the show was in the midst of clearing Prince’s songs for the episode.
