For a show whose plot divides its characters into very distinct factions, with near-identical uniforms that distinguish each, it may be surprising that The Handmaid's Tale costumes have made such a strong impression on the Hulu series' viewers.
While there's typically been limited room to play around with costumes on The Handmaid's Tale , this season provided more opportunity than ones prior, thanks to several characters undergoing significant changes. For one, Serena literally needed a whole new wardrobe."In terms of costuming, Serena has been most interesting because of her character arc. She starts out very depressed, of course, having lost her child. And her color palette is very dark," says Bronfman.
"The scene was fun because I had to really stretch my mind. I had to come up with a higher society having a gala ball, and all I could think of was, What happens every time the victors hoard all the spoils from a society? For example, when they steal paintings in the various world wars," Bronfman says."I could really kind of play with things that we haven't seen in Gilead yet. Like, for example, sheen.
Elsewhere in D.C., the Handmaids are made to wear an additional accessory, too: a muzzle-like covering over their mouths."They have in the back those claps, so the fur hooks, and that was sort of a throwback to shackles because you can hear them when they actually snap shut. It's almost like handcuffs. That's why we chose those—they have that noise to them, and the dichotomy of this little fabric with these big bolts in the back is just creepy," she says.
