Lupita Nyongo's costumes from Us movie on display...

In Jordan Peele's 2019 horror movie Us, we are introduced to the menace of the distorted mirror doppelgängers, the 'Tethered', red jumpsuit and glove-wearing, scissor-wielding terrors who like to hold hands and kill their other selves. Lupita Nyong'o plays 'Adelaide Wilson' whose family is stalked and attacked by 'Red' (her sinister alter) and their own soul counterparts, who want to kill them to set themselves free. Needless to say their family vacation by the lake in Santa Cruz takes a deadly turn and ends with a killer twist.

This duo of blood-stained costumes from the film were photographed on display at FIDM Museum & Galleries in Downtown L.A. on February 4, 2020 (although disappointingly using white mannequins).

Kym Barrett was Costume Designer on the movie and you can see more instantly iconic Tethered costumes from Us on display during awards season.

Fans of Lupita Nyong'o can also enjoy her screen-worn costumes from Black Panther on display.
