On the Inspiration For Principal Weems's Costume

PS: What was the significance of Principal Weems's costume?

MS:[For] Principal Weems, we just wanted to take her back to Tippi Hedren and those characters from those movies. You'll see when she's sitting at her desk, she's got a big bird sitting there, she's got different animals there.

And with Gwendoline [Christie], she wanted to use this jewellery and we collaborated with her. If you look at it, her brooch is a mouth, her bracelet has eyes all around it. Because she's this character that's a shapeshifter, all of these things are present within her costume. She's constantly visually scanning the room. If it's not with her [body], it's with her jewellery. We sourced the jewellery. It's contemporary. It's from Schiaparelli, which is amazing.
