What Do Actors Wear to Set

What are the clothes that actors wear on set called?

Any clothing used by performers (singers, actors, or dancers) on stage may be referred to as stage clothes. More specifically, the term is sometimes used only for those clothes which are specially made for the stage performance by a costume designer or picked out by a costume coordinator.

Do actors get to choose their outfits?

Stand-ins, body doubles, and action performers all require the same clothes, as they will be recorded at some time. They will also require one or even more change with the same clothing. This can get rather costly. So actors generally don’t wear their own clothes in movies.
