Sinners with Costume Designer, Ruth E. Carter

Are you going to let us in? In this very special episode of The Art of Costume Podcast, Spencer is joined by two-time Academy Award-winning costume designer Ruth E. Carter to talk about her stunning work on Sinners, Ryan Coogler's bold new film. Ruth takes us behind the scenes, detailing how she brought to life a richly textured vision of Mississippi through history, mysticism, and—yes—vampires.We dive into the duality of Michael B. Jordan’s characters Smoke and Stack, the spiritual power of Annie’s costume design, Hailee Steinfeld’s dazzling juke joint look, and the unforgettable, time-bending moment during Sammie's song. Plus, Ruth shares how music, movement, and even blood and sweat helped shape the story told through every garment on screen.
