Pinoy craftsmanship played a role in “Wicked” costume design as Senior Milliner Harvy Santos creates the film’s iconic hats

Senior Milliner for Wicked Harvy Santos came a long way and found his own yellow brick road to the Land of Oz, now working on the film’s most iconic costume pieces. “I originally came from the Philippines,” Harvy, who’s now based in the UK, explains. “My fascination for costume started when I was six,” he continues.

He started his career in a completely different field, as a dancer in Hong Kong Ballet, and used his earnings to start educating himself on costumes. “I used to be a ballet dancer. All of the money that I got from dancing, every payday I would buy myself books on garment construction and costume design.” He went on to study millinery at Kensington and Chelsea colleges, and his award-winning hats have been featured in magazines such as Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, and more.

From singing live, voice retraining, and getting matching tattoos, Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo share their journey together as Glinda and Elphaba in “Wicked”

Wicked has always been a journey of self-discovery, and rising up against adversity, but in the heart of it all is the friendship between two young women, Glinda and Elphaba. The right actresses were critical for the film, but director Jon M. Chu and his fellow filmmakers knew instantly that Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo were the perfect choices.

From the start, their bond was unmistakable. The pair had dinner at Chu’s house, with producer Marc Platt and composer Stephen Schwartz.  “Stephen went to the piano and said to Cynthia and Ari, ‘Shall we sing, ‘For Good’?” Chu says. “Cynthia and Ari didn’t rehearse it. They’d never done it together. They sang it, and my four-year-old daughter’s jaw dropped to the floor. No one has ever seen two powerhouses like this before. It’s been beautiful to see how well connected they are.”
