Harley Quinn Concept Art Teases Alternate SUICIDE SQUAD Costume Designs
It's sort of crazy to think that the Comic-Con trailer for Suicide Squad came out a full year ago. We've been analyzing trailers, posters, and photos from this movie for over a year, and we're finally getting down to the last few days before the film's theatrical release. Just this morning, Warner Bros. released a new trailer for the film, and I'm sure we'll be seeing even more TV spots arriving in the coming days. In the meantime, though, check out these two alternate costume options for Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn from a scan of a new EW print issue that the team over at ComicBookResources did. These are a couple of pieces of concept art from costume designer Kate Hawley, and CBR explains what's found in the EW article that came along with the photos.
Hawley explains that she pulled iconography from the comic book source material, as well as rock and roll icons and the Instagram accounts of Mexican drug cartels. She also explains that the goal behind Harley's design was to make her look sexy on Harley's own terms and not cater to what a man (re: Joker) would find particularly sexy.
