Viewing the actual costumes is always very interesting.
Film is an edited illusion and reality is often different.
From the fabrics to the construction techniques to the size and stature ( or not ) of the actors
it is an enjoyable glimpse into movie magic.
And if you travel to LA for the
Art of Motion Picture Costume Design Exhibit
Art of Motion Picture Costume Design Exhibit
do not overlook a small gallery off the main exhibit…
this small gallery has a constantly revolving selection of items from
The Helen Larson Historic Fashion Collection
Currently 10 wedding gowns from the 19th-century are on display.
I've also seen 18th century hats and accessories, beaded party dresses from the 1920s
and it's always a pleasant surprise.
