[Tested] The Making of Hela's Headdress from Thor: Ragnarok
At this year's DesignerCon, we meet up with Ironhead Studio, the costume and prop fabricators who made Hela's jaw-dropping costume from Thor: Ragnarok. Jose Fernandez walks us through how his team made Hela's iconic headdress for Cate Blanchett to wear in the film, explaining how the helmet's pieces hold together and what goes into its brilliant finish.
It looks amazing. I have to say, it looks better than what it looks like on screen.
I agree, even though I was pretty impressed with it on screen myself. I loved her helmet so much in the movie, but when I went home that day and was reading spoiler stuff and theories on the flick, I noticed how much hate Hela's headgear got. A lot of people unimpressed, so much so that I was like "I must be wrong, it must have sucked and I was fooled!" .. but nah, I still think it was awesomely done.
Yeah. It's a comic book movie and it looked awesomely comic booky.
