How did I miss this movie!?!? It is a light piece of fluff from a couple of years back. DH was watching it on the tele when the background music drew me in to see what he was watching. I stayed for the fashion (and the silly fun of the movie)! A good 'date night' flick. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1977789 Wed, 28 Nov 2018 20:31:32 +0000 Sara L. 1977789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I just started watch The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.&nbsp; What a fun show and I really enjoy her outfits too.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1977783 Wed, 28 Nov 2018 19:02:51 +0000 Laurie 1977783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love almost every single thing Robin Wright wears in House of Cards.&nbsp; So body con, though....I don't know how she breathes in some of the outfits.</p> <p>The costumes in <b>The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel</b> are beautiful.&nbsp; &nbsp;Her coats!&nbsp; New season coming soon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1977296 Mon, 26 Nov 2018 20:43:09 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1977296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>"The Dressmaker", starring Kate Winslet.&nbsp; &nbsp;I want all of Kate's outfits.&nbsp; &nbsp;And the wardrobe isn't even the best part of the movie.&nbsp; &nbsp;The story is.&nbsp; &nbsp;But I don't want to give anything away.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1976989 Sat, 24 Nov 2018 21:30:02 +0000 pil 1976989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Runcarla, I loved Bletchley Circle! I recommend it to my library patrons when Appropriate.</p> <p>Speaking of Bohemian Rhapsody, I listened to a Fresh Air interview with Rami Malek. He spoke of deciding he just had to go all in and “own” the glitter body suits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1976927 Sat, 24 Nov 2018 15:10:28 +0000 Carla 1976927@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just finished another riveting British series with amazing costuming - 'Bletchley Circle'. Post war 1950's fashion and hair at its best. *warning: this is a murder mystery series and there were a few surprisingly grisly murder scenes.* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1976887 Sat, 24 Nov 2018 09:56:17 +0000 jussie 1976887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also like Tahani’s wardrobe from “the good place”. Oddly enough I have a friend whom not only looks just like her, but also dresses just like her. </p> <p>I recently watched an old Charlton Heston film called “Diamond Head”, where his co star Yvette Mimieux wore beautiful outfits. It was filmed in 1962. The fabrics looked so substantial compared to today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1972810 Thu, 08 Nov 2018 19:52:43 +0000 Helena 1972810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just finished House of Cards, and as usual Robin Wright's hair and wardrobe were perfection. I loved how in one episode she was wearing gorgeous, bootcut (?) black dress pants - I don't recall seeing her in pants before - I assume to symbolize that she was literally 'wearing the pants' in this season! They also did more of a matching suit look for her, which I took as an homage to Hilary. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1972638 Thu, 08 Nov 2018 03:07:50 +0000 elpgal 1972638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wanderlust is super irritating but I am hooked. I too loved the outfits in Hidden Figures. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1972436 Wed, 07 Nov 2018 08:47:23 +0000 rachylou 1972436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Bodyguard is a really good show. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1972382 Wed, 07 Nov 2018 01:32:35 +0000 Sal 1972382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all!&nbsp; Rachy- Love Kate Hepburn (my favourite is The Philadelphia Story)....&nbsp; I want her clothes from that film.</p> <p>Sara - I like the Good Place too and Tahani's wardrobe is superb.&nbsp; She is a very funny actress.</p> <p>Angie - Planning to see that too.&nbsp; Are you going to go along in theme?</p> <p>Jane - I agree totally - loved Joy's kitchen:)&nbsp; And I liked the three children who seemed more in tune with themselves and their relationships than the parents.....&nbsp; I thought Joy had one or two great dark florals and I loved Claire's clothing and boots.</p> <p>I am yet to see The Bodyguard - after The Little Drummer Girl though!!</p> <p>Fashintern - everything old is new again.&nbsp; Sounds an interesting doco.</p> <p>Carla - I did enjoy the Imitation Game a lot (yet to see the others but they are on my wishlist.&nbsp; We just watched Dunkirk belatedly so the boys are getting some history lessons).&nbsp; And looking forward to Fantastic Beasts as well.</p> <p>Sterling - yes.&nbsp; Especially Downton Abbey! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1972347 Tue, 06 Nov 2018 22:39:36 +0000 Anonymous 1972347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! &nbsp;I watch films/TV just for the wardrobes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1972321 Tue, 06 Nov 2018 19:08:40 +0000 Carla 1972321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm looking forward to the next instalment of the 'Fantastic Beasts' franchise with it's 20's and 30's era inspiration. Release is around the 16th-17th.</p> <p>'Hidden Figures' is a wonderful movie to watch and the fashion is aspirational! Watched 'The Immitation Game' and LOVED the men's outfits. Great movie, too. Was hoping for more from 'Darkest Hour' as a movie, but costuming was good. Mrs. Churcill was pretty fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1972316 Tue, 06 Nov 2018 19:00:50 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1972316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachylou’s comment on how up to date Kate Hepburn looks in Look Who’s Coming to dinner remind me of a short documentary that no one will have seen recently. I came across it the other day, and was stunned by the outfit the young woman is wearing. I think I wore much the same in the early 1980s, and can easily see her stepping out in it today. <a href="https://withberlinlove.com/2017/10/01/1930s-berlin-documentary/" rel="nofollow">https://withberlinlove.com/201.....cumentary/</a></p> <p>ETA: wrong docu, and the right one is harder to find than expected. There are so many documentaries of Berlin in the 30s! Until I find the other, if ever, I’ll leave this one here, since it isn’t possible to delete the post anyway.<br /> Btw, her outfit is a midi skirt—below the knee, but not very far—with pleats like a shorter skirt Angie showed recently, a woven top in matching plaid, and pumps with a bit of a heel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1972308 Tue, 06 Nov 2018 18:37:42 +0000 Jane 1972308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wanderlust- I agree, wardrobes were stronger than the Irritating characters. And I liked the houses! </p> <p>How about The Bodyguard? That was pretty gripping. </p> <p>Also, I enjoyed a rerun of Luther (there might be a new series I think coming up).</p> <p>Mum enjoyed Poldark a lot (but I’ve not tried it) </p> <p>Loving the suggestions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1972268 Tue, 06 Nov 2018 15:59:41 +0000 Angie 1972268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OOOOH. Yummy. Thanks, <b>Sal.&nbsp;</b></p> <p>We are seeing Bohemian Rhapsody next week, and the fashion will be a mind blow I'm sure.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1972250 Tue, 06 Nov 2018 15:19:40 +0000 Sara L. 1972250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tahani's dresses in The Good Place. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1972206 Tue, 06 Nov 2018 08:41:04 +0000 rachylou 1972206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was just watching Kate Hepburn in Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner. I was really struck by how modern her outfit was, including shoes. Sleeveless coat, matching skirt, open toe mules.</p> <p>Was also watching Judy Woodruff on News Hour. Have to say I like her suits too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-style-recently-in-film-and-tv#post-1972194 Tue, 06 Nov 2018 05:41:42 +0000 Sal 1972194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A couple of things I have watched lately where I have enjoyed the clothing/style....</p> <p><b>Ladies in Black,</b> an Australian film set in a Department Store in 1959.&nbsp; It is fairly gentle but gorgeously filmed and very enjoyable</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://i.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/film/film-reviews/107029710/ladies-in-black-colourful-characters-lift-this-australian-period-drama">https://i.stuff.co.nz/entertai.....characters</a></p> <p><b>Wanderlust</b>, a British Netflix series.&nbsp; The theme and content won't appeal to all as it is about a couple with an Open Marriage.&nbsp; I have watched 4 of 6 and whilst a few of the characters are quite annoying in different ways, I do love most of the clothes worn by the women.&nbsp; And I love the younger generation (more than the older one).&nbsp; Any one else watching/watched this.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAPLDP9ZFNI">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAPLDP9ZFNI</a></p> <p><b>A Star is Born,&nbsp;&nbsp;</b>I really liked Ally/Lady Gaga's earlier looks in the film when her hair is natural.&nbsp; It is not really about the clothes though....</p> <p>On my next list is <b>The Little Drummer Girl -</b> this book was my introduction to John Le Carre who is one of my favourite authors.&nbsp; I am waiting for Jon's return to start watching this.....&nbsp; Not sure the fashion will be the highlight though.</p> <p>Any other recommendations?</p>
