Fashion Over Function: Jena Malone in ‘Nocturnal Animals’
Fashion designer Tom Ford directed “Nocturnal Animals,” crafting stylish costumes, although not all of them suited their characters. Jena Malone’s character, Sage Ross, sported outfits more akin to runway ensembles than those of a museum employee.
Ross’s attire, including abstract pieces like a white top adorned with leather black strap details and puffy sleeves, seemed more inspired by high fashion than practicality. Ford’s penchant for runway aesthetics may have overshadowed the character’s authenticity.
