1989 Joker costume project
“I've a mind to make some mookie.”
The Joker's costume from Batman (1989) is one of my all-time favorites, and one that I've wanted to tackle for many years.
I started my costume research not only with Blu-Ray screencaps (of course), but gathering many dozens of other visual references outside of the film itself.
These include auction photos of various elements of the Joker's costumes from the movie, museum display photos (generously provided by Paul Wares), and promotional photos for the movie.
I've compiled all these into a blog post, where you can view the entire collection of over a hundred HD photos:
