Art-i-Fact #5
Eggs’ sweater was made using a couching technique, where different weights of threads dyed various shades of green were sewn onto a stretchy mesh backing, giving it a dimensional, worn-in look.

Art-i-Fact #4
Winnie’s dress ruffles required 37 yards of bias-cut chiffon ribbon.

Art-i-Fact #6
The costume department test-dyed a number of fabric swatches (like these intended for Judge Hopkins) to get exactly the right color combinations for the Puritan-era zombie costumes in ParaNorman.

Art-i-Fact #7
Coraline has 9 outfit changes throughout the film Coraline (including a pink skirt made with stretchy, hand-dyed lycra fabric and multi-color embroidery)—more than any other character in any LAIKA film to date.

Art-i-Fact #9
This beetle print—a test swatch made from bamboo glued onto kimono fabric in strips—is inspired by the Japanese rhinoceros beetle, or kabutomushi (kabuto means “helmet” and mushi means “bug”).
