Why is Blackbeard dressed like Mad Max, lol
I'm very ok with this but I keep eyeballing the effort they put into doing Nautical Max and losing my shit cause I've made a Max cosplay before. The costume department went hard as fuck dressing everyone up and here comes Taika looking like he raided my closet, lmao.

They have done interviews talking about how this is just funny, because they're meant to be sailing near the equator and here's this guy dressed "like an old biker" to quote Taika and in reality he'd just be drowning in sweat 24/7 but it doesn't matter because it looks cool so fuck historical accuracy
bc its hot
I love it. It's on par with the fact that everyone has a different accent. Here comes Blackbeard, it's literally just Taika Waititi in leather with his New Zealand accent. It's like the writers did a bunch of research on pirates and then just chucked most of it out and went with whatever was most funny
Because it's cool
I think they did it because it looks cool 😂
I fucking love the costume choices on this show. Some are very clearly historically inaccurate and I am just loving it.
I think its just funny.
There is a lot of creative and hilarious anachronism in the costumes, actually.
Take a closer look at Olu's footwear. And Mary is consistently earing clothes from a different time period.
The costumes actually are one of my favorite things about the show. They reflect the character's emotional states.
I just watched the episode where they go looking for oranges, and I noticed it looks like Oluwande is wearing crocs 😅
Lmao, that’s when I knew Olu was my bro, crocs are comfy as fuck.
yesssss i saw the crocs too!
My favorite has got to be Fang wearing a Hot Topic belt on his head.
