Costume designer Carlos Rosario worked with hundreds of people across five countries to create the prestige show’s 2,300 costumes.
When Carlos Rosario was first approached about costuming the FX show Shōgun, he was hesitant. He much preferred working on feature films, which, to him, present a narrative structure that’s more clear. But it was his parents—who fondly remembered the 1980s iteration of Shōgun—who changed his mind. Ultimately, Rosario decided he didn’t want to revisit the ’80s interpretation of the James Clavell novel. In fact, he didn’t want to revisit any Japanese films or TV at all.
But the shoe was a mainstay in Japanese culture dating back to the Shōgun era. Townspeople, soldiers, and bureaucrats alike all wear the split-toe shoe. But it was also one piece where Rosario had to divert from the historical model, in order to preserve the actors’ safety. “Nobody would wear tabis outdoors,” he says. “But obviously we are in modern times working with actors, so we wanted to keep them safe.
