February: Coeli's Monochrome Picks

Aelita, Queen of Mars / Yuliya Solntseva as Aelita

Coeli's comment: "Aelita: Queen of Mars has some magnificently weird Constructivist costumes in the Martian sequence (contrasting with the dull Soviet realism of the rest of the movie!)."

The Martian costumes in this film, by Aleksandra Ekster, are indeed quite something! Here, Aelita wears a hat that's something like an umbrella spine or perhaps a radio antenna. And is the design of that bodice meant to hint that she has three breasts, or is it just a stylistic thing?

There's a cool writeup and summary of the movie here.

I featured a costume Ikhoshka, Aelita's servant (who dresses like a bumblebee in a birdcage), in a previous post.
