The Complete Breakdown of Brie Larson's Costumes in 'Captain Marvel' (Fashionista). Today I went looking for more info on Carol's suit, and found this. It has the following paragraph which helps explain why trying to get any of the Marvel characters out of their costumes for fic purposes is so difficult 😂.

The helmet ultimately consisted of multiple parts: "two main pieces that you clamshell into the head, a separate chin piece, the wig and, inside, a custom-made balaclava." The supersuits were actually comprised of individual pieces, too, including up to four units for the boots, gauntlets, shoulder and chest segments and a back with zippers and velcro for an easier fit. The modular design made repairs more efficient, plus allowed — relative — ease of wear for Larson. Although, she still needed the assistance of six people for restroom breaks.

'Captain Marvel's' Brie Larson Can't Save Womankind — But She's Doing Her Best (Hollywood Reporter). A really great profile of Larson. I am even more *hearteyes* about her now.

The Oscar winner and fierce gender-equality activist is proud to be starring as Carol Danvers in the Disney-owned studio's first female-fronted franchise — just don't conflate its success with the fate of women in Hollywood: "We have been opening movies since the silent era."
