Colleen Atwood, the Oscar-winning costume designer, pulled together a medley of creepy, kooky, mysterious, spooky and all-together ooky ensembles for the show "With Wednesday, we can nail the iconic look right away with a nod to the original pointed collar, little print dress and modernized platform shoes, and then put her in an environment that she totally contrasts with: an American happy-time public school," Atwood tells Variety of her reverence for the macabre teen's original outfit. "Then you've given the nod to all that's come before." "When we move to the other world of Nevermore, Wednesday's in a uniform that's specially made because she is allergic to color," she adds. "I wanted a gray and black stripe, but I didn't really like how they looked in the world. So I ended up having the stripes drawn and painted. We silkscreened all her stripes, so we got something that was a softer variation on a on a stripe, which is a fun process as a designer to be able to do." Wednesday's fashion couldn't be any more different from her roommate, a bubbly blonde with an affinity for rainbow colors. "Enid's (Emma Myers) the epitome of everything Wednesday hates: girly color, full of chatter," Atwood says. "We had so much fun playing off that with Enid. With the hard graphics of Wednesday's things, Enid's palette with the orange and the pink and the yellow were like a sunny contrast to her, which helped make them both look more different from each other as characters."
