DENNIS CRONENBERG, COSMOPOLIS COSTUME DESIGNER, MENTIONS ROB IN NEW INTERVIEW

Paul Aguirre-Livingston: You must get asked a lot about working with a certain teen heartthrob on the upcoming Cosmopolis.

Denise Cronenberg: Oh, Rob? Poor guy had to stay in his trailer the whole time. That's not what I call fun. But he's a dream to work with. What a terrific kid.

DENISE CRONENBERG, COSMOPOLIS COSTUME DESIGNER,TALKS BOUT WORKING WITH ROB

Denise Cronenberg, Cosmopolis costume designer (and David Cronenberg's sister) talked to Grazia Live about working with Rob

Grazia Daily: You’re working on Cosmopolis with Robert Pattinson now, what’s that been like?

Denise Cronenberg: Oh, he’s lovely! He’s such a nice, sweet kid. He’s intelligent and smart; he was very brave to take on something like this because I think he was quite hesitant at first. But David is wonderful with actors and he’s a father of three, so he uses that. He and Robert had a wonderful relationship. It was an unusual film to do, very unusual. We had to do a rave, street fires and have cars exploding for this film! David and I decided what we thought we’d put Robert in. I then talked to Gucci who were incredible and gave us all his clothes. He’s dressed from head to toe in Gucci from the tie to his socks! And we had no money, like really, no money so we could never have done it without them.

SWATH COSTUME DESIGNER,COLLEEN ATWOOD TALKS KRISTEN

Old still now in HQ

Popsugar The puff sleeve is sort of reflected in Kristen’s costume, but that’s about it. The rest of it — she’s a totally different kind of character. She’s much less kind of princess-y and more kind of a badass girl. I just showed her the stuff and she was really into it. She loved the armor and all the other bits that she has, it was — she’s really not obsessed with clothes at this point in her career. She’s young and free from that obsession, and in her work previous she hasn’t worn those presentational costumes, so it’s kind of new for her. She’s got a great presence as an actor and you put a costume on somebody that really knows how to wear it and it becomes really strong and kind of scary.

BREAKING DAWN COSTUME DESIGNER,MICHAEL WILKINSON TALKS BD,ROB AND KRISTEN

MTV Style The most critical element with this movie is, of course, the wedding (*spoiler alert* though, ed note: WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT TWICE ALREADY?), and this was misleading in the previews but there’s a dream sequence wedding and a real wedding. How did you delineate the two dresses from each other?
The script gave us a great opportunity to get inside Bella’s thoughts about the impending wedding. There’s a nightmare wedding and her perfect wedding. For the nightmare, we chose something that was a version of the dress that she would hate to wear. Something that’s uncomfortable and a dress Bella would be embarrassed in. It was stiff and had a boned bodice that showed a lot of bare skin which she’d be horrified by because she’s a bit of a tomboy.

There’s nothing very girly about her style so we had a huge, cumbersome, puffy skirt. We just tried to picture everything she’d find difficult to deal with and import that into a dress.

The real dress fit Bella like a second skin and I was really glad about how all that worked out. It reflects her simplicity and elegance. It’s not too girly, I thought it really hit the right note of having some vintage elements while working well for a modern woman.

That dress was stunning. I went to the midnight screening and it was an entire theater filled to the gills with girls sighing in unison. The lace panel in the back with hundreds of covered buttons, we all swooned.
That’s the great thing about Kristen, she has such an amazing physique so we thought the best thing to do was to show that. The dress really reveals curves and highlights each part of her shape but it’s all covered up and so we thought it was sexy but completely elegant.

WFE COSTUME DESIGNER REVEALS HER FAVE ROB LOOK - SHE LIKES HIM 'DIRTY'

For some of us it's the dashing tux, for others it's the daring leather jacket, but for "Water for Elephants" costume designer Jacqueline West, Robert Pattinson's best look in the upcoming film is without a doubt the working-man clothes his character dons right after joining the circus. This, of course, shouldn't come as too much of a surprise for those of you who have been following "WFE" news closely. After all, Jacqueline already admitted to us that she likes her RPattz "dirty and sweaty and dusty" (and really, who can blame her?!).

"I just loved him in the buckle back, 1930s Levi's with suspenders and the work shirt with boots, the bridges tucked in the boots," said Jacqueline. Oh, and speaking of the footwear, Rob's wearing authentic World War I boots in the movie.

Jacqueline said the look was one of her favorites because it revealed Rob’s form (which is apparently a lot "manlier" than it seems in "Twilight").

"It showed his physique, yet it was so real and he looked so comfortable," she said.

Of course, the work clothes do more than flatter Rob's figure (so to speak). Jacqueline said they also give the audience some insight into his character's journey.

"It was a real transformation from his college look and it shows—there's a certain sadness that it evokes from being a vet graduating from Cornell and your future...and all of a sudden you're shoveling manure for a circus," she said. "It evokes a sadness of the depression and how many lives were altered because of Wall Street. There's something provocative about this time and yet it's such a modern look."

In fact, it's a look she anticipates will soon hit the runway.

"I think that work wear is going to become a real sign of the times," she said.

RPattz helping spark fashion trends? We knew it'd happen sooner or later.

JACQUELINE WEST'S SKETCHES FOR JACOB N MARLENA IN WFE + MARLENA'S DRESS REPLICA GIVE AWAY

To play a circus performer in the big-screen adaptation of Water for Elephants, Reese Witherspoon had to transform her chic modern style into a believable retro look, something she couldn’t have done without the expertise of wardrobe designer Jacqueline West.”In the 1930s, gowns were very revealing, ” says West. “The women of that era wore them without any underwear, so that’s what Reese did. She was very brave.” Witherspoon’s co-star Robert Pattinson also got into character with his unmentionables.“He loved that I had authentic 1930s underwear for him,” West remembers. “He said it helped transport him.” 

"Before filming started, we constructed a circus tent dressing room and made these gowns right on Reese's body," West says. "She did research on the style of the 1930s and watched old movies in order to do a complete character study. She's an amazing actress."

"The script followed the novel so closely that it was easy to picture what the characters looked like. They practically dressed themselves,"says West, who created both dapper evening ensembles and well-worn work looks for Robert Pattinson's character Jacob. "Rob cleans up well... and he dirties up well too!"

"They were beautiful," Witherspoon told reporters about the original costumes created by West. "It was a different time when women loved their curves and enjoyed being voluptuous."
