Peek Behind the Screen for some special insights into film at Somerset House.Take a look at some of the most memorable on screen costumes, from Breakfast at Tiffany's to The Fifth Element.
The movies give costume designers a magnificent stage to showcase some true works of art; think Gone with the Wind, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Moulin Rouge, Far from Heaven, The 5th Element and Alice in Wonderland, to name but a few. Anyone who has seen In the Mood For Love will also have Maggie Chung’s elegant 50s dresses seared in the memory. In this event, some great designers talk us through their favourite movies costumes from supreme sartorial elegance to fantastical acts of imagination.
With Alice Rawsthorn, International Herald Tribune’s Design Critic and former Director of the Design Museum, as chair.
