If there’s anything that’s equally as colorful and loud as the boisterous and hilarious ladies of Ten Little Mistresses, it’s the out-of-this-world outfits.
In case you’re wondering how the production team was able to come up with such wonderful and head-turning wardrobe, check out this fashion featurette where costume designer Jay Lorenz Conanan and headpiece and wig artist Jaydee Jasa, executive producer Perci Intalan and writer-director Jun Robles Lana provide a behind-the-scenes look at their creation.
“The challenge for me as a costume designer when I first saw the script was how I can make them pop while being together, and while being alone as individuals,” shares costume designer Jay Lorenz Conanan. “The core of the design is gonna be a pageant; it’s gonna be a competition.”
Executive producer Perci Intalan echoes this vision. “It’s so uniquely Filipino – our sense of pageantry, the visual spectacle,” he says.
“Parang moving trophies kasi sila ni Valentin,” explains writer-director Jun Robles Lana. “It has to be big. It has to be outlandish.”
Headpiece and wig artist Jaydee Jasa was also thrilled he has found a project where he is allowed to exaggerate. “When I make headpieces for my different projects, they’d always say, ‘Oh it’s too much. Can you tone it down?’ And when I got to this project, that was what they were asking for.”
Ten Little Mistresses is now streaming on Prime Video in 240 countries and territories.
