And while the era lends itself to ultra-glamorous looks, Marianne couldn’t go over the top because, as she noted, the show still portrays teenagers in high school. But that doesn’t mean she shied away from creating bold styles entirely.
The character of Olivia (Cheyenne Isabel Wells), for instance, “decides to use her sexuality for empowerment,” Marianne said. “So, we went with the Marilyn Monroe style of red lips and winged liner.”
Plus, the makeup artist slightly pushed the boundaries by adding a little modernity to the cast’s appearances. “We tried to stay with makeup of the ’50s using matte products as much as possible,” she shared. “But for the fantasy sequences, we had more fun.”
Marianne said director, Alethea Jones, encouraged her to go outside of the box, referencing Euphoria and Harry Styles. “We brought some of the dance numbers to 2022 using glitter, gems, and at times, abstract eye designs,” she revealed. “Lots of lashes were used.”
