Old Hollywood: One lovely widow dress

It is easier to make a man to propose, when a woman is wearing something beautiful, which makes him to fall in love with her again. But Scarlett O'Hara managed to say 'Yes' while wearing... her widow dress for the second time! If you saw colourful "Gone with the Wind" by Victor Fleming, you saw those gorgeous attires Ms. or Mrs. O'Hara has worn. But Rhett Butler loved her not because of how she looked, though this one was incredibly elegant.

Vivien Leigh was perfect for this role. She wore every dress with such self-esteem. You can judge her heroine, but I adore her. And Clark Gable played the perfect man for her.

It isn't the last post dedicated to the costumes of Old Hollywood films, so stay tuned.

"X-Men" Style

Continuing writing about impressive and memorable costumes I remembered one of my favorite comics adaptation "X-Men". Two talented designers Louise Mingenbach and Judianna Makovsky did a good job with the appearance of the characters. They underlined their superpowers and made the characters unique but from the same team (goodies or baddies). So here it is some of my favorite costumes of Storm, Rogue, Wolverine, Magneto, Cyclops, Jean Grey and others. And, of course, I enjoy their leather jackets.

 

 

 

 

Hogwarts Style

Today I want to start a new blog topic - movie style. I will tell you about costumes (and maybe later about decorations) from different kind of movies - historical, adventures, westerns, science fiction, musicals, horrors and others. Of course, my first post is about one of the epic stories of our time "Harry Potter". When I watched the first part I was impressed by magical atmosphere which was created by actors, director Chris Columbus, composer John Williams, designers, special effects crew and decorators. I was a little bit younger than 11-years old characters, but I wanted to wear such Gryffindor's cloak. During so many years their costumes have changed, so I found pictures from seven movies to show you how they've grew up with their characters. Let's start trip to the past and back to the future!
