To help build excitement for Zack Snyder's forthcoming action-fantasy extravaganza, Sucker Punch, the ArcLight Pasadena cinema has a wonderful array of original costumes and props on display from the movie.
Original Babydoll costume worn by
Emily Browning in Sucker Punch
This is Emily Browning's 'Babydoll' costume from the movie and it's just one of the amazing outfits on display that I'll be showcasing here at Hollywood Movie Costumes and Props in the coming days.

After being unfairly imprisoned in a 1950's mental institution, a young school girl (Babydoll) escapes into her imagination of battlefields, dragons and samurai with her gang of kick-ass girls.
Michael Wilkinson was responsible for Costume Design to help bring this vision of alternate worlds to life. He's worked with the director, Zack Snyder, before, designing the costumes on Watchmen and you can also see his costume designs in Tron: Legacy.
Actual Babydoll outfit featured in Sucker Punch on display
I was fortunate to see these Sucker Punch costumes up close and I feel that they'll be popular choices come Halloween this year, especially Babydoll's Japanese schoolgirl inspired outfit. For those interested in creating their own Cosplay costumes, the material is like a denim linen.

In addition to the soon to be iconic outfit, the costume and prop exhibit also featured Babydoll's weapons of choice, her samurai sword and handgun.
