When the latest Alien instalment finally premiers in next month, we don’t expect there will be many people as excited as Team Ten. Why, you ask? Yes, we’re all big fans of the franchise (who wouldn’t enjoy watching Michael Fassbender in HD for 123 minutes – “a little human chew-toy,” in the words of Mr Spencer) but the real reason we’re so excited? Craig Green. We’ve always had a bit of thing for Mr Green and his tremendous menswear, and now his work is coming to the big screen – designing a selection of the costumes alongside costume vet Janty Yates. We’ve dissected every trailer (there’s a lot) to see what kind of fashions we could make out, and so far we’ve got lace-up sleeves, some quilted jackets and caps with flappy neck protectors. So far, so Green. I fear for the survival of said fashions with large, human-ravaging xenomorphs charging about, but if you were to be chewed to pieces, or be suffocated by one of those leaping (for want of a better word) “vagina-hand” monsters, could you think of someone you’d rather be wearing than Craig? Like wearing good knickers in case you get mown down by a bus.
