Costumes

Lucy

● Lucy wears leggings to show she prefers comfort over fashion – which contrasts to normal teenage girls

● She wears converse which is a typical teenage girl item● The baggy jumper also hints at the idea of her choosing comfort over fashion. Its

also not revealing● Her hair is quite casual and natural – shows she not bothered about appearance

Ed

● As Ed is the love interest we have carefully chosen to use a white tee to show he is going to change/'lighten' up her world and end her disaster of bad dates

● As Ed will be sitting at the computer screen, you won't actually see what he is wearing on the bottom half, however he would be wearing stylish jeans and converse

Brad

● As Brad isn't a nice date, the black tee is used as black connotes to darkness and evil● The use of skinny jeans is to show Brad is your stereotypical 'cool' guy who is update with the latest trends ● The Black airmaxes are associated with 'chavs', 'chavs' are stereotypically quite loud and careless. As he

checks out another girl, this comes across as him being quite careless towards her emotions.

Charlie

● The tracksuit bottoms are to emphasis he is a slob, as tracksuit bottoms are stereotypically quite a slobby thing to wear

● The white tee shirt will have stains on it to show he is quite a repulsive guy● The messy hair also emphasises he doesn't care about his appearance

Chloe

● Chloe wears a lot of makeup to show she is the stereotypical feminine woman who is more of an object to men rather than a person. This is to contrast with Lucy who is counter typical to this

● The tight dress is to also create this idea she is an object for men – something to look at – rather than speak to● The small heels also emphasis this idea that she is the stereotypical woman who wears these feminine clothes to please the men ● Stereotypically 'blondes' are associated to be more attractive which is why we have carefully chosen to chose our actor to be

blonde to create this idea even though it necessarily may not be true

Blake

● Blake is a stereotypical 'goth'● We've chosen to use all black items to emphasis he is a Goth● We also chose to use a band tee as goths stereotypically like bands/rock music ● We've carefully chosen which makeup to use to also emphasis he is a goth
