Mia Goth Explained Why She Became Emotional When She Saw Jacob Elordi's Frankenstein Costume for the First Time.

      It has been 207 years since Mary Shelley penned "Frankenstein" and 115 years since the debut of its first film adaptation. Over the years, there have been countless films, plays, and TV shows inspired by literature's most renowned monster, but none as ambitious as Guillermo del Toro's upcoming version. In anticipation of the film's theatrical release on October 17, we spent a day interviewing and photographing Mia Goth for our October cover story, styling her in Tom Ford, Simone Rocha, Marc Jacobs, and other innovative brands. While our photo shoot featured whimsical looks, nothing compares to the breathtaking costumes Goth wears as Elizabeth Lavenza in "Frankenstein."

      In our exclusive video interview with Goth, included below, we conversed about various topics, including the film's wardrobe, which she referred to as "a master class in costumes." When asked about her reaction to seeing Jacob Elordi fully decked out in his mad-scientist costume for the first time, she shared how emotionally impactful the sight was for her. "I think first and foremost, I actually felt quite emotional and emotional on Guillermo del Toro's part because I know how deeply personal this story is for him," Goth told Who What Wear. "For them to finally reach that point where they had their actor, they had their guy, and he was in the makeup and hair, I couldn't help but think about what a special moment that was for Guillermo. I was impressed by how comfortable Jacob was in the makeup and hair. He really owned the role, was very grounded in it, and did an excellent job."
