'Loki' Costume Designer Discusses The ‘Funny’ Aspect Of Designing Sylvie’s Mcdonalds’ Uniform
Transcript
00:00 One of the things that I was really impressed with,
00:02 the uniform that Sylvie has at McDonald's.
00:05 I'm so interested, what was the process
00:08 of finding the fabric for that?
00:09 And then what kind of access to resources
00:11 did you have in terms of crafting that and making
00:13 sure it was accurate enough?
00:17 Well, I had a handbook that outlined
00:21 what that uniform looked like, which ended right at the year
00:24 that McDonald's stopped using that uniform, right at the year
00:27 that we see Sylvie.
00:30 But we actually had to sublimate,
00:32 which means we had to print that stripe on a polyester.
00:36 Thank God, because you really have to always sublimate
00:39 on polyester.
00:39 Not that-- it's a little minutiae detail there.
00:44 So we printed that stripe and then
00:48 had to build the whole thing.
00:51 It's so impressive.
00:52 It's so specific and so detailed.
00:55 And I love it.
00:56 Of course, being someone who wasn't around at that point,
00:59 but it's so impressive.
01:02 Well, it's also really-- it was funny
01:03 to try to make it ill-fitting, because somebody
01:07 is with so much swagger.
01:09 I think that Sophia actually has all this swagger as an actress
01:13 so she can pull off anything and make it look cool, which
01:18 helped.
01:19 But still, it's hard to make--
01:22 it was hard because we really wanted to feel like a bad
01:25 uniform, where it's small, medium, large.
01:27 And you might be a small, but hey, we only have a medium.
01:30 [LAUGHTER]
01:30 So--
01:31 [LAUGHS]
01:32 Right.
