First look at NBC's 'The Wiz Live!' cast costumes
Here's a sneak pekk and some of the high fashion costumes from the upcoming 'The Wiz Live!' musical...
We’re still a little less than two months out from the premiere of NBC’s The Wiz Live! but in the meantime, we have a first look at some of the high-fashion costume designs to tide us over.
“We’re creating a fantasy land that also is inspired by some of the imagery you’d see today,” Tony-nominated costume designer Paul Tazewell told PEOPLE of the musical’s new look. “It’s the edgiest of high-fashion from now but in the world of the Emerald City.”
“It’s greatly influenced by where we start: a contemporary Kansas,” he continued. “Dorothy is dressed as a modern teenager.”
Take a look for yourself and see not only the new fashions for Dorothy (Shanice Williams) but also the “fashion-forward” and “hip” looks for Scarecrow (Elijah Kelly), Tin Man (Ne-Yo) and the Cowardly Lion (David Allen Grier)!
