14 Times Movie Creators Didn’t Bother and Used the Same Costumes in Different Films
“Why spend money on new things when we can use the old ones?” was probably the mindset of movie makers when they decided to use costumes that had already been used in previous movies. Most films and TV series just don’t have enough money to dress the entire cast in entirely new costumes. And if a dress was especially good (like it was in Titanic) why not take the chance and use it again?
Bright Side has chosen several examples of when characters from different movies wore the exact same clothes. Only the most attentive viewers would have noticed them. Maybe you’re one of them?

2. Elizabeth, 1998 — Camelot, 2011
3. Gossip Girl, 2010 — The Carrie Diaries, 2013
4. Dangerous Liaisons, 1988 — Hocus Pocus, 1993

Do you think it’s okay to use the same costumes twice in different movies?

Yeah I agree. They're just costumes. No problem in using them a few times. Better than throwing them away.
also, many people haven't seen some of these movies. They won't even notice ?
Like me, for example ?
Though I watched both Snow White and the Huntsman and Once Upon a Time, and didn't even notice that they used the same dress!
I watched Titanic and Tuck Everlasting and actually noticed it. But since those were completely different film, costumes felt different. It's fine for me, tho :)
As long as these costumes look good, idc if they use them or not :)
sure) why not? I like all
