Drive costume designer Erin Benach on Driver’s sunglasses: “I almost cried my eyes out the day he put those on. I absolutely hate them. [laughs] I think he showed up on the day wearing them - I wanted him to wear these other sunglasses and I nearly cried.” (via GQ Film)
Drive costume designer Erin Benach: “The henley is quite an interesting piece. It was an awesome challenge. We probably tried on every henley that has ever been made by anybody anywhere, from Japan to Europe to the Americas. I seriously think we had 300! We liked elements of each one but we didn’t like the label on the collar or, the collar was too thin… In the end we wound up finding some deadstock Thirties army/navy henleys. My assistant found the first one, and the person we got them from said, ‘Oh yeah, I have 15 of them.’ I said, ‘What? You have 15 deadstock Thirties white henleys?’ [laughs] Interestingly, the T-shirt originated from soldiers wanting to wear a layer underneath their wool, just to take off their fighting jackets, their combat jackets, and then still have something on.” (via GQ Film)
