The aim of Clothes on Film is to examine costume and identity in movies, featuring detailed articles on outfits, reviews, news and exclusive interviews. Got a costume question? Please refer to the ‘Note’ section below.
Chris Laverty. I created Clothes on Film and write most of what you read on here. I’ve been featured on HBO television, BBC radio, live for Orange Film Night, plus written for countless mags and websites including MR PORTER, Moviescope and Empire (see Press page). My favourite drink is a Gibson, if you’re buying. Contact: chris@clothesonfilm.com to say nice things and, assuming you’ve got money to spend, offer commissions.

If you would like to contribute an article to the site about your favourite costume(s) in a movie, please contact editor chris@clothesonfilm.com – hopefully we can put something together.
Generally we cannot go searching for ‘that blue tie Brad Pitt wears’ in such-and-such, simply because a) it’s not really the point of the site and b) there are not enough hours in the day. ‘We’ for the most part means ‘I’ – as in site editor Chris Laverty. However, if it is a big ask, send an email or leave a comment. I will do what I can. Just saying please goes a long way.
