Oscar-winning Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them film costumes on display...

Last night at the 89th Academy Awards, Colleen Atwood won her fourth Oscar for Best Costume Design for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Not only was this her amazing twelfth Oscar nomination, but it was the first time a movie from the Harry Potter cinematic universe took home a coveted golden statuette.

Here's another look at some of the costumes from the prequel to Harry Potter's wizarding world, which starred Eddie Redmayne as 'Newt Scamander', a quirky zookeeper of magical creatures in his suitcase, who becomes involved in an adventure in 1920s New York City when one of his incredible menagerie escapes.

I've previously seen these five costumes on display at ArcLight Hollywood cinema when the movie was theatrically released, but these particular Oscar-winning garments were exhibited at Downtown L.A.'s FIDM Museum's 25th Art of Motion Picture Costume Design exhibition on February 8, 2017, alongside the other Academy Award costume nominees.

Congratulations once again to Colleen Atwood, I'm sure it won't be her last Oscar nomination (or win).

Fans of the acclaimed Costume Designer can also check out all these other Colleen Atwood designed movie costumes from the likes of Alice in Wonderland, Alice Through the Looking Glass, Nine, The Huntsman: Winter's War, Snow White and the Huntsman, Public Enemies, Into the Woods and Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them movie costumes on display...

On my way to see more magical creatures last night, a Q&A with Tom Ford for his Nocturnal Animals movie, the ArcLight Hollywood cinema also conjured up this amazing collection of costumes from J.K. Rowling's latest Harry Potter prequel spin-off, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

These five character costumes from David Yates new film were designed by Oscar-winning Costume Designer Colleen Atwood, no stranger to the world of fantasy having created costumes for both of Disney's Alice in Wonderland movies and the film costumes for Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children.

In this first installment in a new magical five movie film franchise, Eddie Redmayne plays 'Newt Scamander', a shy and daffy English magizoologist who travels the globe collecting extraordinary endangered magical creatures.

The wizard's travels bring him to 1926 New York City where he's on the hunt for some exotic new species and an accident causes some of his mystical beasts to escape his magical suitcase, threatening to draw attention from the non-magical population and the American wizards and witches policing magical use.

I think there's a very Matt Smith Doctor Who costume feel to this eccentric Newt Scamander look with the bow tie and tweed materials.

Fans of Eddie Redmayne can also check out these movie costumes and props from The Theory of Everything, these Oscar-nominated costumes from The Danish Girl and his Marius movie costume from Les Misérables.

'Percival Graves' is a high-ranking Auror and the Director of Magical Security of the MACUSA tasked with tracking down Newt. I loved seeing the detail and trim on his 1920s-inspired costume up close, especially his deadly scorpion collar pins.
