The costume design in
True Grit is great in that all the costumes are clearly from the same time period but differ for each character. Rooster Cogburn's (Bridges) rundown duster with his ever present eye patch give the impression of a man who had a prime at one time, but has since passed it. The simple dress that Mattie Ross (Steingeld) wears in the beginning of the film, indicates her simple manner, and disregard for beautifying herself. As the film progresses she changes into more manly attire, but does not pretend to be a man. The difficult task was keeping all the different costumes unique, given the limited color pallet, as well as the heavy use of leather and corduroy worn by people living in the old west.
