Welcome to Makeover Montage, the podcast formerly known as Fishnet Flix! Each week, fashion and beauty writer Marie Lodi and producer Blaire Bercy break down the fashion and glam seen in your favorite movie, TV show, or music video. As costume design superfans and avid movie-watchers, Marie and Blaire call out specific looks, trends, and fun facts while also sharing their current fashion, beauty, and pop culture obsessions. Episodes range from fully dissecting a film, to chatting with renowned and award-winning costume designers, including Brenda Cooper, Mona May, Cynthia Bergstrom, Sarah Trost, Avery Plewes, Mitchell Travers, and more.
Gingerbread-Blonde Wigs and Magical Chiffon Capes in Bewitched (2005)
Costume design breakdown of Bewitched (2005) starring Nicole Kidman, Will Ferrell, and Shirley MacLaine — directed by Nora Ephron and costume design by Mary Zophres.
We're wrapping up Freaky Witch Month with the sweetest sorceress in suburbia: Bewitched (2005)! Nicole Kidman stars as Isabel Bigelow, a real-life witch trying to live a normal life, opposite Will Ferrell's egomaniac TV actor in Nora Ephron's meta rom-com remake of the '60s classic. Costume designer Mary Zophres (La La Land, The Big Lebowski) serves up vintage-meets-Y2K whimsy with cardigans, pastel skirts, and preppy capri pants that turn Kidman into the anti–Practical Magic witch — sweet, soft, and suburban.
But the real style icon is Shirley MacLaine as Iris/Endora — a walking Technicolor spell in chiffon, feathers, and finger-loop capes! She's an old-Hollywood witchcore vision draped in 20 yards of fabric and pure chaos, the kind of diva smoke show only Shirley could pull off.
In this episode, we chat about:
Mary Zophres's flirty, feminine, and timeless designs
Nicole Kidman's demure 2000s-meets-1960s wardrobe evolution
Shirley MacLaine's over-the-top "murder robes" and real-life witchy vibes
Manifesting a Bewitched remake starring Pedro Pascal

Cursed Buttons and Corporate Blouses in Drag Me to Hell (2009)
This week, we’re diving into the gloriously gross horror of Sam Raimi's Drag Me to Hell (2009), the ultimate cautionary tale about ambition, where one wrong decision will get you promoted to HELL! Costume designer Isis Mussenden (The Chronicles of Narnia, American Psycho) dresses loan officer Christine (Alison Lohman) in prim pencil skirts and promotion-ready blouses along with Mrs. Ganush’s witchcore chic of scarves and handkerchiefs. Plus, we talk early-2000s horror aesthetics, animatronic goats, and why Christine’s downfall might just be the most stylish damnation ever put on screen.
In this episode, we chat about:
Isis Mussenden’s inspirations and early-2000s horror palette
Christine’s corporate-to-cursed costume evolution
Mrs. Ganush’s grotesque glam and “witch weapon” styling
The symbolism of that cursed button
Our “Add to Cart” picks: cursed accessories edition
Bonus tangents include:
Marie's old life working in a bank and her own finance fashion choices (minus the curses)
Charmed and Buffy — the Halliwell Sisters get their shoutout
Marie’s crazy purse collection and “purse of the day” ...and more!

Brooches, Bangs, & Deranged Auntie Energy in Weapons (2025)
Freaky witch month continues! Smear some red lipstick and snap some twigs because we’re worshipping at the altar of Gladys, Amy Madigan’s instantly iconic nightmare auntie in Weapons (2025). Costume designer Trish Summerville outfits her like a 1970s thrift witch in oversized tinted glasses, plastic baubles, and the kind of chaotic color-clashing that can give you anxiety (in a good way). We unpack her intense microbangs and ritual props, praise her brooch game, and discuss why she deserves a prequel. Then, we get into conspiracy theories about her Madonna Inn-print carpet bag! We also discuss Marie's visit to the Showgirls Museum in Vegas. Tune in now!
