Fashion On Film

Maybe I'm on my own with this one, but one of my favorite things to do when I'm watching a movie is to look at the fashion, especially that of the female characters. I find it so fascinating to see how stylists dress characters to portray their personalities and traits and I love taking style tips from my favorites. Here are some of the films that inspire me.

                                Jackie (2016)

 This was one of my favorite films of 2016. Jackie is a beautifully-directed psychological thriller following Jackie Kennedy herself in the days immediately following her husband's assassination. The cinematography itself is stunning, but so is Natalie Portman and her portrayal of Jackie. The costumes were made as recreations of Jackie's iconic pieces, and it's so incredible to see them really come to life. My favorites include the green dress Jackie wore in the ballroom scene and her elegant powder blue robe.  

                      How To Catch A Thief (1955)

Grace Kelly always stuns in her films, but especially in How To Catch a Thief. Her clothes are the picture of elegance, characterized by clean lines and signature 1950's elements like full skirts, wasp waists and accessories like neck scarves. Her blue dress is one of my favorite film outfits of all time. 

                               Clueless (1995)

Clueless's style is a 90's spin on classic prep. Argyle, sweater vests, and button downs meet mini skirts and scrunchies. Alicia Silverstone as Cher is the picture of confidence and she really sells every outfit she wears to the audience. Equally stylish best friend Dionne (played by Stacey Dash) is the perfect compliment, and the two make an ultra-stylish duo. Who could forget the yellow plaid set? 

Michelle in scar face is the epitome of a powerful woman. She exudes nonchanalance and sex appeal. Her look is timeless and elegant 

From the iconic blue dress to her adorable swimsuits, the '40s-era looks somehow still have modern appeal.Just scroll for a few of the iconic outfits to get nostalgic  — because lucky for us, we just can't get over the romance or outfits. it still isn't over!
