One Dress a Day Challenge

August: Fantasy & Sci-Fi

Flash Gordon / Brian Blessed as Prince Vultan

You've got to hand it to Brian Blessed and the other Hawkmen actors: this is the sort of costume that can't be worn timidly. It must be worn with gusto or else it will utterly defeat its wearer. And they pull it off, wings and all. Interestingly, they're actually wearing slightly more than their comic counterparts (see below).

Prince Vultan's costume has some extra features that denote his rank. He has a fancy helmet with the badge of the hawkmen, showing crossed wings inside a star, and two tall horns? lightning bolts? stylized feathers? He also has a more substantial breastplate with another variation on the badge (crossed wings in front of a beaming sun). The breastplate appears to be made of leather, with overlapping scales in gold and deep brown.

Longtime creative collaborators Tilda Swinton and Olivier Saillard present an illustrated tribute to the costumes of legendary Italian director Pier Paolo Pasolini’s iconic films. Retracing Pier Paolo Pasolini’s entire cinematography—which continues to fascinate audiences almost half a century after his passing—Embodying Pasolini explores the costumes that brought his films to life. From The Gospel According to St. Matthew (1964), The Canterbury Tales (1972), and Arabian Nights (1974) to Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom (1975), Pasolini’s movies are known for their provocative flair—making them staples of art cinema’s golden age. Styled by Danilo Donati, the costumes—garments, coats, and hats—enlivened the films with their rich textures, volume, color, and embellishments.

Amarcord (Federico Fellini, 1973)

Cast: Bruno Zanin, Magali Noël, Pupella Maggio, Armando Brancia, Giuseppe Ianigro, Nando Orfei, Ciccio Ingrassia, Stefano Proietti. Screenplay: Federico Fellini, Tonino Guerra. Cinematography: Giuseppe Rotunno. Production design: Danilo Donati. Film editing: Ruggero Mastroianni. Music: Nino Rota.

Nostalgia, Fellini-style, with lots of bawdiness, plenty of grotesques, much comedy, and a little pathos. It was a huge hit, earning the foreign-language film Oscar and nominations for Fellini as director and as co-author (with Tonino Guerra) of the screenplay. It's certainly lively and colorful, thanks to the cinematography of Giuseppe Rotunno, the production and costume design of Danilo Donati, and of course the scoring by Nino Rota. What it lacks for me, though, is the grounding that a central figure like Marcello Mastroianni or Giulietta Masina typically gave Fellini's best films, among which I would name La Strada (1954), The Nights of Cabiria (1957), La Dolce Vita (1960), and 8 1/2 (1963). The presumed center of Amarcord is the adolescent Titta (Bruno Zanin), whose experiences over the course of a year in a village on Italy's east coast serve to link the various episodes together. But Titta is too slight a character to serve that function the way, for example, Moraldo (Franco Interlenghi) did as the Fellini surrogate in I Vitelloni (1953). There are some marvelous moments such as the sailing of the ocean liner SS Rex past the village, which goes out to greet it in a variety of fishing and pleasure boats. But too much of the film is taken up with the noisy squabbling of Titta's family, who soon wear out their welcome -- or at least mine.

Romeo and Juliet is a 1968 film based on the play of the same name by William Shakespeare. Directed and co-written by Franco Zeffirelli, the film stars Leonard Whiting as Romeo and Olivia Hussey as Juliet. Laurence Olivier spoke the film's prologue and epilogue and dubs the voice of the actor Antonio Pierfederici, who played Lord Montague, but was not credited on-screen. The cast also stars Milo O'Shea, Michael York, John McEnery, Bruce Robinson, and Robert Stephens.

The most financially successful film adaptation of a Shakespeare play at the time of its release, it was popular among teenagers partly because it was the first film to use actors who were close to the age of the characters from the original play. Several critics also welcomed the film enthusiastically. It won Academy Awards for Best Cinematography (Pasqualino De Santis) and Best Costume Design (Danilo Donati); it was also nominated for Best Director and Best Picture, making it the last Shakespearean film to be nominated for Best Picture to date. Whiting and Hussey both won Golden Globe Awards for Most Promising Newcomers.

This was one of three Shakespearean film adaptations directed by Zeffirelli: The Taming of the Screw - 1967 Romeo and Juliet - 1968 Hamlet - 1990.

Reblogging for the month of weddings, as this is a wedding costume!

One Dress a Day Challenge

The Men of September

The Taming of the Shrew / Richard Burton as Petruchio

Petruchio wears this gigantic, multicolored ... thing ... to his wedding as part of his campaign to be as humiliating as possible. It's based on historical styles, but dialed up to eleven. I love the huge three-cornered hat with the tassels at the edges!

As an interesting bit of trivia, a friend of mine who knows something about dyeing tells me that it would be possible to achieve all the colors in the suit with natural dyes.

I've never quite figured out what that thing he's carrying on a stick is supposed to be. Looks like either a donkey or a wild boar, but made of feathers? Or something?

Agenore inviò i suoi figli nella sua ricerca[2][5] dicendogli di non tornare senza di lei. Nel corso delle loro peregrinazioni, questi figli fondarono città ovunque e così Fenice divenne il capostipite dei fenici, Cilice quello dei cilici, Cadmo si stabilì in Beozia costruendo Cadmea, la rocca di Tebe. Nessuno di loro però trovò Europa[2].
