Just when we thought it couldn’t get any better…
If you’ve ever been on a trip to London, you’ll know that the Harry Potter Studio Tour is an absolute must for any fans of the books or films.
In the past, visitors to the the Warner Brothers Studios have been able to head to Hogwarts, visit Privet Drive and even stroll through the Forbidden Forest, and now they’ll be able to get up close and personal with the costumes from the movies.
The Wizarding Wardrobes exhibition will showcase the Harry Potter movies’s huge costume department, with everything from the costumes worn by the stars of the films to the props, wigs and make-up used.
Visitors will learn how hundreds of unique wizard hats were created for Harry’s first trip to Diagon Alley and how milliner Phillip Treacy designed the Beauxbaton’s hats.
A hair and make-up display will show how the team created special effects including applying Harry Potter’s iconic lightning bolt scar almost 6,000 times during filming and giving Bellatrix LeStrange her pointed teeth.
Best of all, if you head along you’ll have the chance to step inside Professor Slughorn’s armchair suit.
The Wizarding Wardrobe exhibition runs from Friday 21 July to Monday 4 September, but if you’re thinking of heading you might want to book it now – places on the studio tours are often snapped up months in advance!
