The Idol Costume Designer Details the Dark, Twisted Fashion – E! On line

Behind the glitz and glamor of The Idols costumes lie an ugly truth. Sam Levinson‘s new HBO series shines a light on the sinister side of fame, as it centers on aspiring, troubled pop star Jocelyn (Lily-Rose Depp) and her complicated relationship with modern cult leader Tedros (Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye).

It also says it will transition to using materials that last longer and are easier to recycle. Inditex, the parent company of fast-fashion retailer Zara, announced on...
