Extras should come dressed in a casual “night out” look. Nothing overly formal, but an outfit that they themselves would naturally wear to go to a concert/bar with a relaxed atmosphere. The vibe is hipster and bohemian and the scene is set in autumn/fall. Examples of types of clothing we’re looking for are casual blazers/jackets, casual button-ups, flannels, casual dresses, sweaters, t-shirts, jeans, casual skirts, sneakers, boots—feel free to accessorize!
Again, they should think about what they would personally wear to an event like this and use that for inspiration.
