Jacqueline West is one of the most interesting costume designers we have featured at Clothes on Film. Her credits include The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The Social Network and most recently Argo directed by Ben Affleck for which she is CDG nominated (Excellence in Period Film). Yet West did not set out to be a costume designer, instead forging a career in fashion during the 1970s. It was not until director Philip Kaufman hired her to assistant costume Henry & June in 1989 that she tentatively entered the profession and then continued to shine, essentially self-taught from books by the one costume designer she had heard of – Edith Head. 

Chatting exclusively to Clothes on Film, Jacqueline West talks us through the incredible level of detail and research she undertook for Argo, living up to her status as what Brad Pitt described as a “method costume designer”:

Ben wanted a bird’s eye view into something that was happening then. I looked at so many movies with him. One night at his house we screened The Killing of a Chinese Bookie, Three Days of the Condor, The China Syndrome, Charlie’s Angels on television to look at TV and film crews.
