Threadbanger: Interview with Costume Designer Susan Hilferty

OMG! i love that book! i really want to see the musical and this only makes me want to see it more!!!!

Omg, i went to see Wicked in London and was amazed at the costumes but didn't know how to find out more about them. Thank you so much for showing this! P.S. i think i am too addicted to Threadbanger :)

One of my favorite episodes. She's amazing. Great interview guys

HUGE Guest!!! I can't wait to see this show here in LA. Good score, that and the Sweeney Todd Costume designer were both amazing interviews, keep them coming!!! -Steve C

My daughter really enjoyed this interview as she is fascinated with the Wicked musical. As a seamstrees myself, I also was glued to the monitor. Excellent info and inspiration. Please continue to produce videos like this!

Beautiful. I feel that these costumes should be worn so that they can be shared with people close up, perhaps at a ball? In a horse drawn carriage in Autumn? I volunteer to wear that green one with ribbons but I'd have to wear my own hat.

My mind is absolutely blown after hearing 40 yards of fabric in one skirt! Holy cow! Could you imagine wearing that no less dancing and singing in it? What an accomplishment to make such a gorgeous and ambitious outfit!

Ive seen some better costumes that arnt for brodway

I love Wicked! The costumes are amazing, and this video is excellent! What amazing detail....

Wow! I saw the musical in July and it was awesome. It's hard to tell how much detail is on the costumes on stage. I love it even more.

wow that is so amazing that you got to interview her! what a privledge! shes such an artist to have used thousands of fabrics for that one show

Gah!!! I want to see this show so bad!!! But I have no money...(pouts and whimpers) But thanks for all the inside look at those gorgeous costumes!

Best.Threadbanger.Episode.Ever.

wow i luv the black witch's dress it's awsome.

I saw Wicked a couple years ago, it was awesome, too bad you can't see those crazy details, I'm glad I got to see them on this video, I had no idea how awesome they were @-@

I saw Wicked in Baltimore a while back, it was a fun show.

I love you guys. Wicked is an absolute passion of mine, the book first then the musical, I love it and have seen it many times. The costumes really do make the show and this interview was just fantastic - you guys rule. Wicked and threadbanger, my ideal night!! ;)

Thank you guys so much for this episode!!! I love her work, and her comment about 'fear' is Bang On!

I love this episode! Wicked is probably my favorite musical on Broadway and I would see it over and over. It's great to get a gliimpse behind the scenes at all of the beautiful costumes.

OMG I have been waiting to hear from the designer of Wicked! Part of my inspiration and my drive to create costumes comes from the aesthetic of the show and the costume designer. This was totally AMAZING and her words of wisdom totally speak to me. Thanks Threadbanger!!!

i love this! she IS inspiring... and Corinne its great to see your old style kinda come back! love the hat and the piggies

What a fabulous fabulous episode. I was so glued to the computer screen and I thought I wouldn't be. Such a lovely lady to show so much of her work. Bravo!

Thanks for this Rob and Corinne! I am so jealous you guys got to go see Wicked, but thanks for taking us backstage! :) So excited for the tutorial tomorrow! :)

This is incredible! I love it.

This is amazing. You would never see all this detail on stage and yet it's there. I'm just in awe!!!

UMMM LOVE IT!!!!!
