"Lost in Space" (1998) Penny Robinson's (Lacey Chabert) Costume
Description
Offered here is a production-made costume created for the character Penny Robinson, portrayed by Lacey Chabert, in the science-fiction adventure film Lost in Space. Designed in the film’s rugged, futuristic survival style, the ensemble reflects the practical wardrobe aesthetic created for the Robinson family as they navigate the dangers of deep space and an unfamiliar alien environment.
The costume begins with a gray long-sleeved shirt constructed of viscose and lycra, allowing flexibility and comfort for filming. An interior tag at the back of the collar bears handwritten text reading “LACEY CHABERT.” The sleeves, shoulders, and the proper right side of the chest exhibit rust and dark-colored staining throughout, consistent with intentional distressing applied by the production to achieve the film’s worn, utilitarian look. Sewn to the bottom of the shirt is a black cotton undergarment component that has been cut at the bottom and fitted with snap buttons to create a unitard-style base layer. The garment closes with a zipper along the proper right side seam.
Accompanying the shirt is a pair of gunmetal gray nylon and polyester overalls featuring a zipper closure running down the center front and a lace-up adjustment at the center of the back. The overalls include multiple pockets with button closures throughout, emphasizing the functional survival design used for the film’s costumes. A white interior tag sewn inside the garment displays handwritten text reading “L. CHABERT,” and the overalls are labeled size small.
Released in 1998, Lost in Space brought the classic television series to the big screen with a cast that included William Hurt, Gary Oldman, Matt LeBlanc, and Heather Graham. Costumes created for Penny Robinson helped establish the grounded, survival-focused visual style that defined the Robinson family’s journey in the film.
This production-made costume represents a detailed example of the film’s costume design and provides collectors of science-fiction cinema memorabilia a tangible connection to the world of Lost in Space and the character of Penny Robinson.
Condition
The costume exhibits intentional rust-colored distressing throughout the shirt as applied by production. The attached undergarment component has a small hole on the front just above the snap buttons. The overalls display minor snags in the fabric throughout, and the front of the proper right crotch area shows a small water mark. Overall condition remains consistent with production use and intentional distressing.
