The Who What Wear Podcast: SNL Costume Designer Tom Broecker on How He Outfits an Entire Show in Three Days, Thriving in Creative Chaos, and the 50th Anniversary Special

Tom Broecker is the costume designer of the legendary NBC sketch show Saturday Night Live. Broecker, who has been with the show for over three decades, is responsible for the design and creation of all of the costumes for the show—sometimes creating up to 200 for just one episode. Today on the podcast, he joins Who What Wear Co-Founder and Chief Content Officer Hillary Kerr to discuss the intricate process of creating iconic character costumes under tight weekly deadlines. He shares behind-the-scenes stories about the show's 50th anniversary, the massive costume archive, and the blend of psychology and resourcefulness needed to dress characters from Bill Hader as Stefon to Bowen Yang as the iceberg that sank the Titanic.
