The birth of fantastic cinema and the birth of cinema took place hand in hand. Fantastic cinema, the first examples of which were seen during the silent cinema periods, has become a cinema genre that has developed its ability to fascinate the audience with the emergence of sound cinema. The process that started with The Thief of Bagdad, shot by Douglas Fairbank in 1924, and Die Nibelungen, the same age production of Fritz Lang, has been reflected in the costumes by focusing on different subjects until today. Since the costumes in the films produced in the fantasy genre are as effective as the movie, they have also affected the sectors that are thought to be closely related. Fashion, music, textile, clothing, space design, etc. Apart from these, it is clear that shoes, bags, hair, accessories have the potential to establish, influence and reform a new lifestyle. The costumes that identify with the character also influence the viewer and trigger the commercial sector. In this paper, Edward Scissorhands movie costumes, symbolic meanings and effects on characters will be revealed, which is one of the examples of Fantastic Film of Holwwod Cinema, in 1990, directed by Tim Burton. And also; afected areas outside the cinema sector will be determined through examples. Keywords: Fantastic cinema, scissorhands, costume
