Paul Tazewell was the Emmy-nominated Costume Designer on this NBC musical special, along with Assistant Costume Designers Laaleh Mizani and Heather Lockard and Costume Supervisor Rory Powers.

This cool collection of costumes from Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert were part of the 12th annual Outstanding Art of Television Costume Design exhibition at Downtown L.A.'s FIDM Museum on August 21, 2018.

I especially like Alice Cooper's King Herod suit which comes adorned with a pattern of skulls and the faces and bodies of tortured souls.

If you're a musicals fan, be sure to also check out these costumes and props from NBC's Peter Pan Live and these Hairspray Live costumes too.

Another Period season 3 TV costumes on display...

In the historical comedy Another Period, Riki Lindhome and Natasha Leggero star as the narcissistic and aristocratic sisters 'Beatrice' and Lillian Bellacourt', part of the first family of Newport, Rhode Island, at the turn of the 20th century. The spoiled, selfish socialite siblings in this spoof are like the Kardashians of the Edwardian age, concerned only with their looks, their fame and the parties they attend.

Cress Williams Black Lightning season 1 TV costume on display...

Last year The CW added yet another DC Comics superhero to their television ranks in the form of 'Black Lightning', played by Cress Williams and created by Tony Isabella. In his TV incarnation 'Jefferson Pierce' is a High School principal who has retired from the crime-fighting scene in the fictional city of Freeland, until his daughters are threatened by a local gang and he suits up as the electrically-powered vigilante again to save them and protect his community from the crime, corruption and conspiracies threatening it.

This illuminated suit was photographed welcoming visitors to the 12th annual Outstanding Art of Television Costume Design exhibition at Downtown L.A.'s FIDM Museum on August 21, 2018.

Laura Jean Shannon was Costume Designer on the black superhero series, with Assistant Costume Designer Sarah Mgeni, Costume Supervisor Michelle Margolis and Costume Coordinator Jenny Davis, with the super-suit built by Creative Character Engineering.

I love how you can see the Tron-like circuitry in the costume's fabric and there's something about the two lightning blots on the front of the suit that reminds me of the iconic comic book version of 'Black Bolt' from the Inhumans.

Fans of the DC Universe can also check out all these other DC Comics superhero costumes from the big and small screen.

Plus stay tuned in the coming days for more science fiction and fantasy wardrobes on display at this TV exhibition, including costumes from Game of Thrones, Star Trek: Discovery, The Orville, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Westworld and more besides.
