Costume designer Jocelyn Pierce immersed herself in the Brighton Beach scene to outfit Sean Baker’s latest film with authenticity.
In the whirlwind film Anora, a working-class stripper and sex worker, Ani , impulsively marries Ivan , the son of a Russian oligarch yearning to stay in the United States, where he has unfettered access to his family’s exorbitant wealth. The tale is the latest in The Florida Project and Red Rocket director Sean Baker’s oeuvre, much of which is marked by his portrayal of sex workers in America. Jocelyn Pierce, the film’s costume designer, sees Anora as a story of the American Dream.
We got to know people who were closely representative of the characters in the movie. Then the details started to materialize.” Baker was especially hands-on when the cast and crew arrived in Brooklyn. “Sean and I would be standing on the street on Coney Island Avenue, and he was showing me, ‘Look at that guy and look at that guy.’ We saw enough evidence in the real world of characters that informed us. Every single thing was grounded in truth,” she says.
