The release of the new trailer for The Marvels has generated a lot of controversy and conversation, but one question on Twitter caught the attention of the film’s lead, Brie Larson. A curious Twitter user asked about the bra Larson wore in the trailer with a cropped tank top, and the actress explained that finding the perfect bra was “a whole team effort.”

Larson revealed that she wore a “Chantelle US t-shirt bra (with an extra strap stitched in)” and gave a shoutout to Rebecca Higgins for engineering the beauty we see on screen. Ensuring that Carol Danvers’ costuming on-screen is just right has been a priority from day one.

The Importance of Costuming

Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige revealed that in an early meeting with Larson, they both agreed that they would be forgoing the overly-sexualized suits that Danvers initially wore in the comics. Larson even helped design her casual looks in the first Captain Marvel movie, with costume designer Sanja Milkovic Hays noting that her grunge, ’90s look reflected the character’s personality.

Carol’s Upgraded Costumes In The Marvels

The fact that so much attention was paid to even the smallest costuming pieces, like a bra, bodes well for fans excited about Carol’s upcoming suit upgrades in the film. The post-credit scene of Ms. Marvel revealed a slightly different Captain Marvel suit than in her past appearances. The trailer also revealed an entirely new suit, meaning at least two costume upgrades for the character will likely happen by the end of the film.

In conclusion, it is clear that much attention was paid to the smallest details in the costuming for The Marvels, be it with a cropped tank top and bra or with a super-suit designed for a powerful hero.
