When legendary Western hatter John B. Stetson invented the first commercially manufactured cowboy hat in 1865, he probably didn’t expect it would become a major fashion accessory more than a century and a half later. And yet around the world today, cowboy hats are worn by more people than ever before, and much of the credit for their newfound popularity goes to the costume designers of “Yellowstone” and “1923,” and to the shows’ creator, Taylor Sheridan.
Award-winning costume designer Janie Bryant created the costumes for the “Yellowstone” prequels “1923” and “1883,” and she believes the timeless appeal of cowboy hats is due, in large part, to their symbolic associations. “I think it really is about the American spirit,” she says. “There’s a wildness, a pioneering spirit, and a sense of freedom that we identify with the cowboy hat. It’s iconically American, and I think people relate with it globally.”

“Truth won’t win the battle… menace will,” tough-as-nails “Yellowstone” patriarch John Dutton utters coldly and indignantly in the lead-up to the devastating conclusion of a rip-roaring first half of the Paramount Network blockbuster’s fifth season. The first eight episodes of the show’s fifth season concluded in January, so fans of TV’s top-rated show are now clamoring for the series’ return. The second half of the season is due later this year, promising even more bloodshed and tears, political in-fighting, back-stabbing, fist-fights and corporate scheming set against the breathtaking backdrop of the unforgiving Montana wilderness.

Since inheriting the world of “Yellowstone” in Season 2, costume designer Johnetta Boone has made her mark on bringing Western fashion and costume to a broader audience. The key was tailoring to each character, she says.
Beth, played by Kelly Reilly, is someone Boone says pivots from iconic soft costumes to “knock- out” attire. One of those looks is her chain-mail dress.
“That was so iconic of the ’80s and passioned with this most incredible faux fur, which again supports our intent,” Boone says.
The dress designed by Fannie Schiavoni was intended for Beth to lure, seduce and gather information. “The color gold exudes richness and opulence, which most desire greatly. It’s the very
color that draws everyone near. Her off-white coat communicates a sense of purity,” she says. “Her nude-colored stiletto boots allow you to remain focused on her torso while offering the very unspoken language of sexiness.”

With Covid resurgence meaning that only the naughty are likely to risk large gatherings this holiday season, there will be even more reliance on home-viewing comfort food in the vein of “The Princess Switch: Switched Again.” Bringing back the same director, writers and lead actors from Netflix’s original 2018 success, this pleasant sequel provides the updated “Prince and the Pauper” conceit a new wrinkle in giving star Vanessa Hudgens yet a third lookalike character to play.
Though inevitably the formula wears a little thinner in spots this time, it’s a frothy fantasy that should satisfy viewers’ itch for confectionary-looking Christmas fluff. Netflix premieres the feature worldwide Nov. 19, and it should provide them with a year-end programming staple for some time to come.

Here’s a dirty little secret about costume designers: They’re, by their own admission, rude. “I think costume designers are like the rudest people out there ever,” Christine Bieselin Clark (“Star Trek: Picard”) joked during Gold Derby’s Meet the Btl Experts: Costume Design panel (watch above). “We’re constantly in other people’s business. They’re like, ‘Why are you staring at me?’”
That’s because costume designers might often find more inspiration in life than in a costume house. “People are our biggest research as well, life itself. Sometimes I see the funniest looking people and I think, ‘Oh my God! If I tried to produce that character onscreen, people would look at me like I’m crazy,’” Johnetta Boone (“Yellowstone”) added during the panel, which also featured Sarah Evelyn (“Hollywood”), Leigh Leverett (“Patsy & Loretta”) and Marina Toybina (“The Masked Singer”). “But then you realize that’s...

Johnetta Boone joined “Yellowstone” in its second season, taking over for Ruth E. Carter, but the costume designer felt like she had been there all along.
“It was actually quite fantastic because she did such an amazing job in Season 1 and it was easy to just walk right in.,” Boone told Gold Derby at our Meet the Btl Experts: Costume Design panel (watch above). “Ruth and I are friends, so it was a wonderful shifting of the guard. It was a great welcome from the cast. Everything was set up very nicely for me, so it was a very warm reception. It almost felt like I had been there, which was really great because sometimes when you’re going in, you could feel like a new person in a room where a party is already going.”
