Compare Costumes in Hocus Pocus 2 to First Hocus Pocus Film
How the Sanderson Sisters' "Hocus Pocus 2" Costumes Differ From the Originals
2
With fashionable celebrities like Sarah Jessica Parker as part of the cast, Perez went to Eric Winterling's renowned costume studio to do special hand-embroidery featuring a motif with thorny vines, flowers, and spiders on her costume, nailing the 17th-century aesthetic while playing into the budding corset trend. To further modernise Parker's costume, Perez upgraded the sleeves from mesh to fine cashmere, composed of individual spiderwebs made by knitter Krista Ann, who joined the team just to make the unique sleeves.
"[Parker] was in the middle of shooting 'And Just Like That,' so I would have to go up to New York and go to her house to fit her. The first time we put the mockup on her, she lit up and was giddy, running around the house twirling and showing her daughters. She just loved the costume and the custom-made boots from LaDuca Boots," Perez says.
