Dorothy’s dress had pockets! Is there anything better than a dress with pockets? Actually a gown with pockets is even more fabulous!

Indeed Kari!

@bojack40 4 года назад

As does Margo Channings party dress in All About Eve, allowing Bette Davis to use them and the dress to emphasise Margos’ emotional condition and general character. I remember reading that Margo was the ‘kind of woman, who would throw a mink on the floor’, and perhaps the kind who would treat a beautiful cocktail dress like a workman’s overall?!

@@littlethingcalledtiina That was actually my favorite of all! The way it moved with her, so much lighter than the boarding dress, symbolic of the beginning of the shedding of the old ways, her old self, yet still uptight enough with all the incredible and cumbersome beading, indicative of that age around 17 from a child to a woman.

@melaniew4354 4 года назад

I adore Carol Burnett, but I really don't like that almost every mention of Scarlett's curtain dress HAS to also mention the parody. It's not just this video, but lots of other places. I am a huge GWTW devotee (mainly the novel) and the constant attention to Burnett's parody shifts the true meaning too much for my taste...but that's probably because I am born & raised in Georgia and know how truly horrible Reconstruction was, especially on the women.

@lizbethraymond8364 4 года назад

The entire movie, Hepburn presents with one amazing dress after another. Not just the show-stopper dresses from the ball or the races, but the green dress she wears while being made to ¨say her letters¨ and others like the gorgeous dress she wears while singing ¨Show Me¨ to Freddie, the young chap who ¨sniggered¨ at her. The construction of the latter was pure genius in the way it was constructed to work with Hepburn´s very slight figure. I need that designer in my closet!

Well, this was quite a lovely thing to wake up to. You just about got every female costume I wanted to see! Thank you, my darling! I'm surprised that none of the iconic costumes in the video were made by Edith Head, since she is one of the most celebrated costume designers in Hollywood history. You should do a Top 10 best Edith Head costumes, that woman deserves a video all to herself. Also, I totally forgot to tell you! I saw Scarlett O'Hara's curtain dress at the Royal Shakespeare Company Theatre in Stratford - Upon - Avon along with Rhett Butler 's suit, and took a picture! It's most likely a replica, but still I lost my freaking mind when I saw it. I'll share it in the group page.

I've seen the documentary made later in Head's life where where she discusses how she designed. Her philosophy was that the dress should never outshine the woman wearing it. When you take that point of view how can a gown ever fail?

@robinholbrook6576 4 года назад

My Mom had several of Edith’s dresses. Unfortunately, without our knowledge, she took various gowns to places like DRESS FOR SUCCESS thinking it was a good thing to do. Several French designer gowns disappeared, as well. Her designer purses are all gone. An incredible diamond necklace is missing, too. She has no idea where it went. Dementia is a very sneaky disease. You don’t want to boss around your parent but if you aren’t careful.... A $250,000 diamond ring is also gone. Just gone....

This retired NYC fashion illustrator who also studied fashion /costume design and the history of costume found this most interesting. You filled me in on some info I didn't know! Sad that the late great Debbie Reynold's wasn't able to fully realize her dream of a Hollywood museum that preserved the past history of the Golden Age of Hollywood and these great historic costumes. She only did so for a short time before she passed away. I once saw a great exhibition which was actually the very first exhibition of the Costume Institute at the MET in NYC around 50 years ago, "Hollywood Costumes" and saw many other fabulous costumes worn by the late greats Greta Garbo, Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe plus many others. Unfortunately, many who buy these historic Hollywood costumes at auction for millions of dollars also do it for buying bragging rights! I would rather see them all on display at museums so all can see them and appreciate them! Thanks for sharing~

Julian Child. OMG, yes! Loved that dress! And the blue dress she wore for Sister's number.

I LOVE the neckline of that dress Clooney wears, and how dramatic the shape is!!! I think that dress is part of why for years I wanted to marry wearing a mermaid dress.

I'm surprised no one here has mentioned the Schiaparelli-inspired fuscia gown Marilyn M wore in Gentleman prefer blondes. It's been referenced hundreds of times in pop culture; even James Franco wore a version of it at the Ocscars. On a side note : in the early 1990's at Bloomingdales in Manhattan - there was a Hollywood themed exhibit of original gowns. I was blown away by the tiger striped gown Marilyn wore in the Rachmaninoff sequence. in person on a mannequin - and on film it was jaw dropping.

How about a video about famous jewelry and/or accessories from movies? There is a fantastic article on the Joseff of Hollywood collection of movie costume jewelry on Collectors Weekly that could be quite inspiring.

@Harringtonml54 4 года назад

May I suggest that the next edition include Rita Hayworth's strapless sheath from GILDA, Bette Davis's mink-trimmed party dress from ALL ABOUT EVE and any of three Julie Andrews outfits: the Jolly Holiday sequence from MARY POPPINS, Maria's wedding dress from THE SOUND OF MUSIC, and the Jazz Hot gown from VICTOR/VICTORIA. Bette Davis's transformation tailored suit and hat in NOW, VOYAGER is a breathtaking moment and Rosalind Russell in AUNTIE MAME has brilliant clothes throughout. There are so many you could include and do several editions! Thanks so much for the hard work and great fun you have created here!

Years ago in NY, one of the museums had a costume exhibition, and I was blown away by the wedding dress in Camelot worn by Vanessa Redgrave. It was made up of hand sewn pumpkin seeds, which I had never noticed while watching the film. AMAZING in person. I would have loved to have seen here the stunning green gown worn by Kim Novac in Vertigo, when first seen in Ernie's by James Stewart. And my third pick would be (again, emerald green) the gown worn by Keira Knightley at the library & dinner scene in Atonement. Thanks for a delightful clip!

@beaumen1 4 года назад

yes, the costumes from the film 'camelot' are perfection...they were designed by john trusscot. all of the clothes were hanging on racks at warner bros. costume rentals, back in the days when they were available to all....the wedding dress is beyond belief.

Okay, Totally new level of respect for Dorothy's dress having pockets! It's a shame that so many craftsmen were denied recognition because the category didn't work. Oh my gods, I can't even imagine having to wear something like that in the final Grease scene. That sounds like torture. Also, I can only imagine the horror of some research projects for these. Thank you for giving us the history behind these icons!
