The firs Wicked movie (which is streaming with an Amazon Prime subscription) was an Oscar-winning success, with costume designer Paul Tazewell taking home an Academy Award for his work on the book to screen adaptation. The sequel For Good broke box office records, and once again brought some iconic costumes to the big screen. Although one look in particular has gone viral: the chunky cardigan Elphaba wore while singing "As Long As You're Mind" with Fiyero aka the sex cardigan. And the discourse has gotten so loud that Tazewell has weighed in.
Just like its predecessor, the costumes in Wicked: For Good are gorgeous, colorful, and methodically crafted. They help to immerse the audience in the world of Oz, and reflect the inner workings of the characters the Wicked cast is portraying. But that knit that Cynthia Erivo rocks throughout her love song is arguably the most viral of these looks. Just ask the internet.
