CM: We’ve had numerous dialogue in our workplace concerning the garments on Sirens. Considered one of our writers spoke to the costume designer about nailing the form of exaggerated, nearly camp preppy aesthetic. However I really feel like Michaela’s garments have been the one wardrobe one actually coveted from the present.
JM: [Costume designer] Caroline Duncan and I labored on that fairly intently. It’s like [Michaela] has a better style pitch than all people else. She’s the queen bee, so she needs to distinguish herself and sign her energy. So we talked about retaining her in ivories rather a lot, cream colours. And stuff that’s not significantly sensible.
CM: Did you retain something?
JM: I did. The outfit that I stored was the one which I wore on the very finish of the present, when she’s on the ferry, as a result of I used to be like, That, I’ll put on. That was a suede Khaite jacket. I liked it. And a pair of The Row denims that I liked, and this nice sweater.
CM: Do you typically, or ever, deliver any of your individual garments onto set?
JM: I attempt to keep away from it. Typically I deliver footwear ’trigger I’m actually explicit about how my footwear match and whether or not or not I can stroll in them. However, you recognize, costumes get soiled, you get make-up on them, you’re sort of in soiled locations. And so you probably have one thing very nice, you don’t wanna deliver it to work. [Laughs.]
CM: I wanna know if Michaela’s life at Cliff Home has any correlation to Julianne’s life in Montauk.
JM: Oh, no, no. As a matter of reality, I went to the beverage retailer in Montauk final weekend to get my case of lemon LaCroix and my mini Weight-reduction plan Pepsis and stuff, and the girl that I do know from the beverage retailer was saying, “I actually love that present, however wow, she’s not such as you in any respect.” I used to be like, I don’t suppose Kiki buys her personal mini Weight-reduction plan Pepsis.
TA: You began by saying that you just discover that everybody’s watching this present. You’ve been in numerous large, blockbuster-y motion pictures which have large premieres and field workplace numbers, and now we’re in a brand new period the place one thing like Sirens begins to dominate the dialog. What are your ideas on that?
