"The book is timeless and has an enduring quality," director Ava DuVernay says. "But we wanted to give audiences a new experience, too." Delgado's magnificent costumes for the three women, played by Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon and Mindy Kaling, merged futuristic vibes and elements of the earth, sea and sky with unusual fabrics and textures, and because of the delicate materials used and their intricate construction, they were not easy to put on.

Department Head Make-up LaLette Littlejohn worked closely with two-time Academy Award-nominated costume designer Paco Delgado and Emmy-nominated Department Head Hair Kim Kimble to create the Oscar- worthy fantasy looks for the stars of Disney's A Wrinkle in Time.
