See the Oz the Great and Powerful costumes up-close »

Disney’s new film Oz The Great and Powerful is opening in movie theatres tomorrow. And not only are we excited to see James Franco in L. Frank Baum’s classic Oz setting, but we also can’t wait to take in the film’s visually stunning fashion and cinematography.

Created by costume designers Gary Jones and Michael Kutsche, the fashion of Oz reflects the glitz and glamour of L. Frank Baum’s classic storybook setting, while frequently using emerald, ahem, Pantone’s Colour of the Year (How perfect!) Jones and Kutsche created almost 2000 costumes for the film, including several elaborate looks for the film’s witchy stars Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis, and Rachel Weisz.

With an OPI nail polish collection and an assortment of dramatic costumes, Oz: The Great and Powerful is sure to be a fashionable film. Oz doesn’t hit theatres until next Friday, March 8th, but at the European premiere in London today cast members such as Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis, and Rachel Weisz looked stunning walking the “Yellow Brick Road” in place of a red carpet.

Michelle Williams, who plays Glinda in the Wizard of Oz prequel film, wore an emerald feather embroidered Burberry dress to the premiere. She paired the aqua number with a tiny box clutch and minimal makeup for a vibrant look that complemented the film’s fantastical nature.

Yesterday OPI gave nail polish lovers a new reason to be excited for 2013 by announcing the launch of a new collection on their Facebook page. Set to hit counters in March, the OPI Oz The Great and Powerful collection features seven nail polishes inspired by the forthcoming Disney movie.

There are no ruby-red slippers to be found here: Oz The Great and Powerful is a prelude to Dorothy’s adventures, focusing on Glinda (the good witch, played by Michelle Williams) and her sisters—as well as how Oz himself came to be. Meaning: OPI has created a collection that’s a mix of soft shades and shimmering, stand-out glitters. It also includes a new shade of Liquid Sand polish named “What Wizardry Is This?” which seems to be a little more masculine than your typical glitter. Said OPI Executive VP & Artistic Director Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, via press release: “This rich taupe hue was designed for James Franco’s character, the great Wizard of Oz, and is sure to make a bold statement this spring.”
