A special Monday surprise: a rare clip of Louise in showgirl outfit from a trailer of the lost film The American Venus (1926). A first time FLB post.

And finally...a kid who fell right out of the OshKosh B'gosh catalog. Stripes AND suspenders AND light jeans - lordy lordy, that shirt looks uncomfortable.

We also get a disheveled, open-shirt Mulder. *Wipes brow*

S01E04 (Conduit) features guest star (and Academy Award nominee!) Carrie Snodgrass in not one, not two, but three different florals. Costume department was dialed in on this episode.

Oh we are so back.

Stay tuned for more X-Files fashion!

Episode 3 also includes the first appearance of veteran actor Henry Beckman. Dude had over 200 credits in his career!

Also, love the set decoration here. Radio- check. Trophy - check. Ceramic dog statue - you know it.

S01e03 Scully with some wonderful vibes. We need to bring back these color schemes.

And that bathroom 😍Tile on tile on patterned wallpaper? Be still my heart.

Also, E01s02 gets a special shout-out for the guest appearance by a young Seth Green rocking some peak grunge-era threads.

Episode 2 DELIVERING with the florals.

X-Files spooking me out with the supernatural and raising my eyebrows with the prints.

Wide tie alert.

Also, this wraps up the pilot episode of the series. Will be scrubbing through the other S1 episodes to get some choice grabs. Am especially excited for episode 6 (‘Shadows’) because of one character’s absolutely killer wardrobe.

I forgot how much of a moment denim had in the early 90s. I think I’m comfortable leaving this trend behind. (S01e01)

Also, shoutout to Scully’s flannel-lined jacket. Great color scheme going on there.

Oh my god. Look at the interior of this plane. That fabric!

(S01e01)

One of the many wiiiiiide neckties we will be seeing on this series. Lighting isn’t great in this scene, but it doesn’t need to be to capture the sheer breadth of this puppy.

(S01e01)

Scully’s first onscreen appearance starts off with a double-breasted plaid blazer - and is immediately met with an excellent shirt that blends zigzag stripes AND polkadots.

God I miss the 90s. (S01e01)

So I started watching The X-Files the other day and good golly, the threads and looks on this show 😍.

This account will be posting (and commenting on) pics of outstanding outfits, interiors, and other art events from the series as I work through it.
