39 Wardrobe Glitches in Movies You Might Have Missed

In the 1987 film The Untouchables, set in the 1930s, Kevin Costner’s wardrobe notably deviates from the period’s fashion norms. While the film aims for historical accuracy, Costner’s suit reflects the trends of the 1980s rather than the 1930s.

Period-accurate suits of the era typically featured larger, pointier lapels that covered much of the chest and were often double-breasted, contrasting sharply with Costner’s ensemble. This discrepancy in attire, while a minor detail, highlights the challenge of accurately capturing the fashion of a bygone era while still appealing to contemporary audiences.
