No mention of Deckard's shoes which were Adidas Stan Smith or Originals suitably weathered with acid. Probably the best outfit in cinema, it just blends perfectly into the world he lives in
Costume CO i'll have a look. It was a nice retro touch, where in any other detective film it would of been boots of shoes, it just looked good have him in like a slightyl tatty suit but with trainers. They were unrecognisable though as the tags were removed and the laces changedmedia.bladezone.com/contents/film/production/props/costumes/deckard/shoes/deckards_shoes.html
Oh my god!! Thank you for doing Bladerunner!!! It's been my favorite movie since I saw it as a little kid. The noir style of the film makes seeing the detail of the costumes near impossible. I loved that you were able to get good shots of them to share with us. I am very much looking forward to seeing Part II and getting the scoop on Rachel's costuming!! Seriously the best costumes ever made for any movie!!
+PrincessCupncake Thank you so much! I totally agree. I'm hoping to have part ll out on Friday. I was able to find lots of great photos of Rachael. Unfortunately, none of them are high res so it makes it difficult to see the detail. Cheers, Heidi.
I wanted to send appreciation for the detailed Blade Runner costume critique. I've been studying Syd Mead's portfolio recently and randomly found your scholarly post. I have felt for years that there has rarely been a movie made that rivals its graphic density. Even Ridley Scott hasn't made another one like it. Just to add one other data point, Thanks.
Hi Kevin, thank you so much for commenting. I also recently interviewed Propstore auction where they auctioned one of Dekkard's suits and Zhora's raincoat outfit. I continue to be amazed by this iconic movie.
Thank you for your hard work researching this aspect of Blade Runner's production. The film is an exquisite work of perfection that teases something new and beautiful with each viewing. Thanks to you I learned of the pattern in Tyrell's gown for the first time! I can't believe I hadn't noticed it before. Thank you for this excellent analysis and for enriching the film's body of knowledge.
I was buying and selling movie memorabilia for years. One of the first things I bought in the 1980's was the bloody bathrobe Tyrell wore in his death scene from Collectors Bookstore in LA and their monthly comic and movie auctions. That has been long gone since about 1990. BUT I still own the Ring of the Schwartz and the necklace which comes with it I got from them about 30 years ago.
The best Christmas present.....will save this for later, though I cannot wait to watch. Killing me.... ....must.....stop.....watching....must exercise..................control.......
great video!! I'm a huge fan of the concept art of Blade Runner, the set especially, never really payed any attention on the costumes, thanks for providing new prospective. Can't wait to hear your comments on Blade Runner 2049, Luv and Wallace have some nice costumes, and of course Sapper Morton's silly little glasses haha
+ANDYofzz I'm also a big fan of the concept art by Sid Mead. I think the costume designers did a good job of tying it all together cohesively. I still haven't seen 2049, hoping to see it soon!
I’ve been looking for something like this! I’ve always been interested in costume design and this was a well done analysis. I don’t know why I haven’t seen this channel before, but I’m subscribed now.
Amazing study! I have been watching all of your costume study videos and i love how much you put work into it! Keep it up! P.S. Love watching them after i come home tired, it's rejuvenating :3
Thank you for this. I have no idea about fashion and clothing, so it’s nice to learn through the films I love. As a teen in the UK during the 80s it is difficult to underestimate how much of an impact Blade Runner had on fashion and music back then.
What a fun, unique channel! And love Blade Runner. Lovely to "meet" you today in Nick's live chat. Cheers and I look forward to checking out your videos! - Andrea.
I watched it a long time ago, but I immediately remembered the characters when you showed them. That's how iconic their costumes were. I really like the suits and trenchcoats. As a side-note: The iconic Eskimo outfit makes little sense. Although I'm not a biochemist, I've worked on genetic editing and had access to a cold room. You don't usually work in it. It's mostly an oversized fridge, but it does contain often some equipment especially HPLC or centrifuges. Both are equipment used for purifying samples and they take time to use, thus having the samples cooled is important. However, you usually only set up the machine and leave again and only come back sporadically. Today, most of the equipment has temperature control so that cold rooms are not necessary. You can handle samples at room temperature for a while, or put them on ice, similar to how you sell fish... Similarly, why wear those optics on the head, when you got better optics on the desk next to you?
Just amazing, I just found your channel looking for information in Blade Runner costume as I am a huge fan of this master piece. Thanks for the accurated work on it!
I am so flashed everytime I watch your videos. You totally deserve all of your subscribers. You got me with the GoT costumes❤️ they are so carefully put together and the constant content goes on in every video you make. Maybe you could talk of your favorite costume designers? Or a video about Penny rose? I loved her costumes for the pirates of the Caribbean movies. ❤️ i can’t wait for your next vid
I thought Tyrell was pronounced more like "Tie-Rell" (not Tir-ell). That's if my memory of the film serves me (it's been a few years since I've seen it).
You may be shocked but ive never seen Blade Runner the new one or old one but after this video i have watched the old one and have fallen in love with it.
Great movie, I actually was really hoping you'd do a Blade Runner video. I haven't been able to watch you're videos lately :(. I've got a lot to catch up on. Lol. I'm a big fan of PKD. The movie is more inspired by, then a direct adaptation The two are very different, but I love them both for their own reasons. Can't wait for Part 2. I want to see what you have to say about that fur coat Rachel has.
Now that I've watched blade runner I can enjoy your video! I was wondering if you're planning on reviewing "Gunpowder" by the BBC with Kit Harington? I was loving the costumes (swoon!)
Costume CO yes, it's a 3-part BBC TV series about the occurrences before and during November 5th 1605 (celebrated as Guy Fawkes night in the UK). The costumes were very nice (in my non-expert opinion), you can see a stark contrast between costumes of the king's court (pumpkin shorts, lavish fabrics) and the noblemen (earls and dukes) who were wearing more 'practical' outfits - have a look, it was a visual treat for me (despite the gore.)
María Gutierrez Okay, got it! Those are from video interviews mostly, but let me look into that. I'm out of town but when I return I should be able to get that to you. 😁
Haha! I know, I just do that in every movie. I think with they new one out (which I still haven't seen) some viewers are going back and watching the old one.
I just had a great chat with an older friend who I never even knew took film as lit in college with Bladerunner and it's string of studio edits as a major part of the course. The ways small amounts of cut/paste can so much change a story for better or worse. He had just seen the new one and I showed him Blackout 2022, he said "yes, it would be better to watch that before seeing the new sequel" so there's that bit of advise for you.
Spoiler: Darth Vader is Luke's father... (doesn't the name even imply it? dark father?) Yes, many spoilers have become popular knowledge, but that kinda sucks, when you're not old enough to have watched it before the spoilers became well known...
Hi, nicely review! I just saw it last year and I was shocked how much it still holds up from special effects wise. You know I just made a review of this movie analyzing its shadows, the villain and noir. I don't know if you would like to check it out and see what you think? See ya :)
I can read french and on the covert of Metal Hurlant t's said "blade runner, it's a k.Dick assacionation" I guess they didn't enjoy the movie they inspired
On the covert of the magazine Metal Hurlant that you put at 2:43 on the left down corner it is said "Blade Runer was like k.DICK being murdered" It mean the movie was so bad that K.DICk was rolling in his grave. I find it funny that they despise the movie that draw some of is inspiration from them
Thank you for clarifying! I think that Moebius and a few of the other French cartoonists might have been a bit bitter after Star Wars and many other sci-fi pics in the genre had borrowed so heavily from them without credit.
I think it's more because the movie is only based very loosely on the novel and they where DICK purists (And the common trope that the book is always better than the movie) Thank for answering me, discover your chanel yesterday and have looked a lot of your videos since
Thank you so much! I love the novels by Dick and the movies inspired by him. Btw have you seen the series Electric Dreams based upon many of his short stories? Bryan Cranston is a producer and its excellent.
Hi Mark, are you asking me why I said that this is an American film or is this just a general comment about why films are said to be American vs. British? If you are asking me why I said that it is an American film when the director Ridley Scott is British, it is because the production company is American, in the same way that when a film is nominated for an Academy Award, the trophy goes to the producers. That's not to say that the directors and the producers might often be the same people. This was early in Scott's career but as we know he went on to produce many pictures himself including Gladiator. In that example, the film was considered a British/American film because Scott's production company (shared with his brother Tony) and three other American production companies put up the money. I hope this helps.
in this movie Harrison Ford wears some of the ugliest shirts ever seen by human eye, and yet he still looks cool. also, I want so bad Tyrell's robe, it looks sooooo cozy!
See Rick Deckard's iconic suit (prior to auction) in my interview with Maegen at Propstore: th-cam.com/users/liven-T3dQV_Ofk
No mention of Deckard's shoes which were Adidas Stan Smith or Originals suitably weathered with acid. Probably the best outfit in cinema, it just blends perfectly into the world he lives in
The Roo Thanks for the comment! I didn't find any info or get a good picture. Do you have a link?

No way! Adidas?

Thanks so much Evan. I really appreciate it.
Metal Hurlant is published in the United States under the name Heavy Metal Magazine and Mobius was featured in many of the earlier issues.
Neat personal story of you & your husband liking Blade Runner. I really love the design of this movie.
Thank you so much! Yes, actually we should watch it again soon... It's been a little while.

I wish you would do Streets Of Fire someday...but if I begin suggesting films, I may never stop. Love your channel.
Oh! Please someday do Trouble in Mind 1985. Where else can you see Divine dressed like Sydney Greenstreet?
I love your channel, binging every episode! Thank you for great content and inspiration.
Ah, thank you simen.
Gaff was new to the Blade Runner department, not a veteran.
I watched it a long time ago, but I immediately remembered the characters when you showed them. That's how iconic their costumes were. I really like the suits and trenchcoats.

Wow, thank you so much. I really appreciate that. :)
Amazing video, sort of was like looking down memory lane.
Rebecca A. Emrich Thanks Rebecca! Yes it was for me too. I think I was 16 when the original movie came out.
I looked at the film, and the details is saw in your vids made it more cool to look at, thanks so much 🤗
Thank you so much for your lovely comment!
@@Costume_CO not many people look at movies like that, but I do🤗
We must be kindred spirits then.

Okay Thank you!
Great work!
Thanks Cecily!
Great, I will send if I can download it. I'm in Canada so I'm not sure where it is broadcast. Love 17th century costumes.
As a huge fan of the movie and story, that is awesome information. Thank you so much🤗🤗
Thank you so much!
@@Costume_CO all the details count😉...
At 14:40 Bryant is wearing a double faced watch similar to what some of the characters in Alien wear
Thank you, I will check that out. :)
I thought Tyrell was pronounced more like "Tie-Rell" (not Tir-ell). That's if my memory of the film serves me (it's been a few years since I've seen it).
That's probably right.
Amazing Video! Amazing Channel! Amazing Movie!❤
Thank you so much! It's my favourite movie of all time!
You may be shocked but ive never seen Blade Runner the new one or old one but after this video i have watched the old one and have fallen in love with it.
+Aaron le fay Hi Aaron, I'm so glad you liked it!
6:56 ended to be Roy outfit... wonderful
I just checked and you're right!
I really hope your replicant video comes out before Halloween as I'm going as Rachel and it would be nice to have a closer examination of her outfit
Hi Ellie! It's almost done, I just have to finish it so hopefully will have it out early next week. :) So fun that you're going as Rachel.
+Costume CO YAAY I've got my notifications on ready! Trying to get the hair right is the hardest!

Good job!

Thank you so much!
You're welcome
Now that I've watched blade runner I can enjoy your video!

Ahhh... Great Movie and Great Video as always. Will you do a Halloween Special? Maybe with the Constumes of Hocus Pocus?
+Simproved Thank you! I'm doing The Worst Witch with my son, but I'll add it to my list. :)
I forgot to tell you that I watched Hocus Pocus. It was really great. I will do that next year for sure. :)
Funny that I see that comment right now... If you do make that video, I'll definitely watch it.
5:26 Did not know that about trench coats.
Good video.

video on blade runner 2049 please
Okay, I will see what I can do.

@@Costume_CO why even say it ? It has zero influence on the making of the movie
in this movie Harrison Ford wears some of the ugliest shirts ever seen by human eye, and yet he still looks cool.
also, I want so bad Tyrell's robe, it looks sooooo cozy!
There is some 80s influence going on there with those shirts. :)
I thought ford clothes were good and wearable, other were too much. Good visuals but not a good movie.
