warmdrobe noun [C]
UK /ˈwɔːm.drəʊb/ US /ˈwɔːrm.droʊb/
a collection of warm clothes to wear in cold weather
Finessing the art of cold weather dressing in winter is hard work, but a warmdrobe will make it decidedly easier. The key to a warmdrobe – a wardrobe curated specifically for bitterly cold times such as these – lies in tri- and quad-layering. This is the practice of acquiring pieces that need as little thought as possible because you know you can rely on them to do all of the heavy lifting for you.

method dressing noun [U]
UK /ˈmeθ.əd ˌdres.ɪŋ/ US /ˈmeθ.əd ˌdres.ɪŋ/
a trend where an actor dresses in the same way as the character they played in a film at events where they are promoting that film
When attending official ceremonies, festivals, or film promotions, actresses still impersonate their characters outside the film set. That new marketing technique combining fashion and performance is known as method dressing. We just have to look back at the big promotional marathon for Dune Part II to witness first-hand the role of method dressing as a marketing strategy. That evening, Zendaya and Florence Pugh opted for two opposite looks that matched their characters in Denis Villeneuve’s film.

someone who creates sequences of movements for fashion models to perform on the catwalk
Though the Poland-born creative has been collaborating with Galliano and the Margiela in-house team since 2018, in addition to working closely with other major brands like Versace and Tom Ford, his journey to becoming one of the most sought-after movement directors today has been nothing short of intriguing, with notable stints in dance, acting and modelling.
