Imagine a world where the wives of Gilead had access to the internet or were able to read and write. With their talents in gardening, needlepoint, and knitting, they would certainly make excellent influencers. Their social media accounts would showcase lush flowers from their greenhouses, intricately embroidered samplers, and perhaps even photos of their children, presented in a way that downplays the efforts of the Marthas and Handmaids who support them in the background. The Wife of Gilead costume from Handmaid's Tale, designed by our in-house creative team, beautifully captures the essence of this dystopian nightmare. The modest tea-length dress with three-quarter sleeves and a bow at the high-neck, zipping up at the back, is a striking portrayal of the character. Layered with a blue cape that allows movement with its side slits, this costume is finished off perfectly with tall boots and a stern gaze, embodying the unsettling yet iconic look of a Wife of Gilead. In the world of Gilead, colors hold significant symbolism. While the Handmaids wear deep red to symbolize fertility, the Marthas dress in dull green, representing healing and utility. The teal worn by the wives in the show was originally envisioned as a clean, Virgin Mary blue by Margaret Atwood, symbolizing the purity of their position. Embrace the eerie ambiance of Gilead by embodying the role of a Wife of Gilead this Halloween, wearing the iconic blue and exuding a sense of power and authority.
