FASHION ON THE SILVER SCREEN

Edith Head working on her designs

Since the times of brilliant Edith Head and Hollywood's Golden Era fashion has been playing its own part in the biggest productions. Apart from action, we adore movies that can smitten us in terms of fashion. We want to show you our favourite old and new (fashion) films that has been a great inspiration to us. The enchanting silver screen wouldn't have been so magical without all the outstanding costumes. So please have some popcorn and let the show begin!

Beautiful Catherine Deneuve in her 60's A line dresses and box coats. 
'Belle du Jour' by Luis Bunuel, 1967

Romantic Belle Epoque is presented at its best by Winona Ryder's costumes in 'The Age of Innocence' by Martin Scorsese, 1993



Sophisticated Gwyneth Paltrow. Fur, bob and dark eye make-up - we likey!
'The Royal Tenenbaums' by Wes Anderson, 2001


The most elegant woman on the silver screen. Audrey Hepburn enchanted us with her cute box jackets, pencil skirts and pillbox Halston's hats.
'Charade' by Stanley Donen, 1963

The most fashionable movie ever. We simply adore Sylvia Fowler's (Rosalind Russell) quirky hats and lovely dresses. The 30's and 40's fashion in the best edition.
'The Women' by George Cukor, 1939

Lily Donaldson as Sylvia Fowler

No surprise here. Of course we love white dresses and long loose hair worn by Lisbon sisters. So romantic!
'Virgin Suicides' by Sofia Coppola, 1999


THE BLUE DRESS. We want the blue dress. That's all.
'Alice in Wonderland' by Tim Burton, 2010


Grey mouse becomes a fashion icon? Once again, beautiful Audrey in her very fashion forward movie with stunning Hubert de Givenchy costumes.
'Funny Face' by Stanley Donen, 1957

Grace Kelly or Princess Grace. She was an epithome of her name. Timeless elegance, class, femininity and joy of dressing up were visible in her brilliant, gorgeous costumes. 
'Rear Window' by Alfred Hitchcock, 1954

Edith Head's design for Grace Kelly in 'Rear Window'

Funny and spectacular at the same time. Beautiful Lauren Bacall as an elegant fashion designer stunned us with her outstanding pieces.
'Designing Woman' by Vincente Minnelli, 1957


Dark and romantic.
'Edward Scissorhands' by Tim Burton, 1990


This green dress is one of the most stunning dresses we have ever seen! Seriously!
'Atonement' by by Joe Wright, 2007


Do we need to explain why? Come on, it's with Jane Birkin!
'Blow up' by Michelangelo Antonioni, 1966

We can go on like this forever so we need to stop right now. So, what are your favourite and most inspiring, in terms of fashion, movies?
