With X-Men: Apocalypse opening this weekend starring James McAvoy as 'Professor X', it seemed timely to showcase these movie costumes worn by the Scottish actor and by Daniel Radcliffe in 2015's Victor Frankenstein.
Original film costumes from Victor Frankenstein
In a twist on the legendary tale about his monstrous experiments, this film tells the story of
Mary Shelley's 'Victor Frankenstein' (McAvoy) from the perspective of his young assistant,
'Igor Strausman' (Daniel Radcliffe).

These
Victorian era costumes were photographed on display at the
FIDM Museum in
Downtown L.A. on February 12, 2016 and were designed by
Jany Temime.
The
Costume Designer worked on six of the
Harry Potter films and you can also see her
costumes in Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason and
Children of Men.
Costumes worn by Daniel Radcliffe as Igor in Victor Frankenstein
In the film the ambitious medical student
Victor Frankenstein rescues a nameless hunchback from a
London circus and names him
'Igor' after his deceased roommate. He drains his back cyst and creates a harness to help him with his posture and the two become partners in his unorthodox medical experiments.
