In March this year Marvel Studios brought Moon Knight from the comic book page to small screen in the original Disney+ series. Oscar Isaac starred as the multiple personalitied-superhero and vengeful "Fist" of the Egyptian moon god 'Khonshu', defender of those who travel at night. Created by writer Doug Moench and artist Don Perlin, in the live-action television series we discover that our hero has Dissociative Identity Disorder, with alters known as 'Marc Spector', 'Steven Grant' and 'Jake Lockley', who are drawn into a mystery involving Egyptian gods.

These Emmy-nominated Moon Knight costumes were photographed on display at Downtown L.A.'s FIDM Museum on August 24, 2022.
Meghan Kasperlik was Costume Designer on the MCU series, with Richard Davies and Wilberth Gonzalez Assistant Costume Designers and Martin Mandeville as Costume Supervisor.

Meanwhile Steven Grant is a mild-mannered British museum gift shop employee who wears a tailored suit with mask and becomes 'Mr. Knight' when he becomes the avatar of Khonshu, misunderstanding what it means to "suit up".

I love these costumes with their references to mummy bandages, moon sigils, Egyptian motifs and hieroglyphics incorporated into the looks.
Fans of the actor can also check out his Poe Dameron costume from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker on display.
Stay tuned for a closer look at May Calamawy's 'Scarlet Scarab' and Ethan Hawke's 'Arthur Harrow' costumes also on display as part of FIDM Museum's Art of Costume Design in Television exhibition.
