But it’s not just the main protagonists that have the best looks. Arguably the best costumes of the film only appear on screen only for a scene. The retrofuturistic periwinkle-blue flight attendants’ two-piece suits with matching pillbox hats are the most exciting 1960s-mod-inspired looks. The cut-out crop tops and miniskirts accentuate their figures, and are very reminiscent of Courréges. Blue Diva, the alien opera singer, is in a blue couture gown that’s worthy of the Met Gala red carpet. The 23rd-century McDonald’s drive-thru employees are only shown for about 10 seconds yet are one of the most influential pieces of the film. A huge stretch of what McDonald’s uniforms look like today, the red bodycon dresses have a yellow figure-hugging M carved out in the chest area, matching gloves, and the workers have red wigs and a plastic M sitting on their hair. Gaultier’s McDonald’s costumes were the main inspiration for Jeremy Scott’s 2014 Moschino collection, which was accused of glorifying fast-food culture. Scott also took inspiration from The Fifth Element for his FW18 ready-to-wear collection, where models wore Leeloo-inspired wigs in different colours, orange bombers, futuristic suspenders and an orange transparent PVC skirt that resembles the Mangalore spy’s miniskirt, which has been replicated by various brands such as Dolls Kill since.Being that a few cells were still viable in the arm, the lead scientist begins reconstructing the being using the isolated DNA and a complex machine that puts the being together part by part, beginning with the skeleton, followed by the muscles and organs, and finally exposing the body to slightly greasy solar atoms (ultraviolet radiation), forcing the body to take measures to protect itself from UV damage by growing skin and hair. The entire process is explained by the lead scientist to a skeptical General Munro, who is less than enthusiastic about the being's revival. He informs the scientist that he hopes the the being is "friendly", stating his intent to destroy the being with a card-activated destruction system inside the machine if he is not. a b "The Fifth Element (1997)".

Soon after her laboratory "birth", Leeloo is clothed by the scientists in wide, white thermal bandages that conceal her nudity somewhat.
