The Fashion Designer of Azkaban

Out of the fiasco that has been the filming of the third Harry Potter feature (Prisoner of Azkaban, in case you *gasp* haven’t read the series), one thing is rapidly becoming clear: J.K. Rowling’s beloved characters have abruptly discovered the Gap.

Due to the change in directors (and subsequent change in style), Harry, Ron, and Hermione now sport some of the latest fashion trends, right down to the carefully curled tips of Hermione’s newly highlighted “frazzled locks.” Not only is it a departure from previous director Chris Columbus‘ fantasy world, but one from Rowling’s own book descriptions as well.

It will be really interesting to see if newcomer Alfonso Cuarón’s depiction of Hogwarts works as well as his predecessor’s. If you’re into that kind of thing, of course.
