It’s our fifth annual Drewcember! Grab a plate of some bedside hot buttered corn and your best costume of the day because it’s time for Grey Gardens! Drew Barrymore stars as Little Edie Beale alongside Jessica Lange as Big Edie, the reclusive mother and daughter who lived in a decaying mansion for almost 50 years. Costume designer Catherine Marie Thomas (Kill Bill, Whip It, 27 Dresses) is behind the exquisite recreations of the 'fits Little Edie was known for. We have fun breaking down the looks of our favorite staunch character-slash-style icon while comparing to the OG Grey Gardens documentary from the 1970s, and then somehow go from talking about the Edith Beales to guessing the zodiac sign of Jigsaw from the Saw movies? Don’t ask…just tune in. Bye!
