How costume designer Mark Bridges transformed Joaquin Phoenix's Arthur Fleck into one of the screen's most iconic villains in Joker
A clown wig inspired by the color of broccoli, a pair of white socks and a one-of-a-kind clown face are just a few of the designer tools used to transform Joaquin Phoenix's Arthur Fleck into one of the screen's most iconic villains inDirector Todd Phillips looked to two-time Academy Award-winning costume designer Mark Bridges to fulfill his vision of Arthur becoming the Joker.
Forgoing the research of past Jokers, such as Heath Ledger and Jack Nicholson, the costume designer admits to checking out the purple suit and green shirt donned by Caesar Romero in the originalseries: "He was my favorite Joker and a product of my misspent youth sitting in front of the television set."
Because he was sharing an apartment with his mother, Penny , who calls him "my little boy," Bridges dressed Fleck in a hooded jacket that was too small and "vaguely juvenile" along with his signature white socks. "I never use white socks in a film, but if ever there was a time, it would be for Arthur Fleck!"
The trousers and shirts were all custom , with a few vintage sweater finds. The designer created a gold vest and a necktie for his clown outfit that gives insight into his pending mental breakdown when worn to his mother's funeral. Bridges also took his cues from the writer, who wrote in the script "a rust suit Arthur had for many years," which translated into a rust-colored waistcoat, a mustard-toned vest and a patterned bottle-green shirt.
