Two recent wardrobes I loved were Perks of Being A Wallflower and Argo...more for their precision than anything else. Both films really did a great job capturing their time periods (90s for Perks and 70s for Argo).

@Gabor: I really loved Shakespeare in Love's wardrobe. It was released in 1998 or did you mean a film set in the late 90s?

[Gábor]

^Set in the 90s.

I completely agree with you, Sobriquet87, about the wardrobe for Perks! I was really impressed with the level of details which they paid attention to when it came to the wardrobe. Emma Watson's, Sam, wore so many great outfits, I particularly loved her slightly oversized sweaters. And Gabor, a few other films that are set/made in the 90's that I think have great wardrobes include Clueless, Empire Records, and 10 Things I Hate About You. Also, check out Ghost World. It wasn't made in the 90's but I think it has that vibe, especially from the way Enid and Rebecca dress.

I liked every outfit from Titanic, Elizabeth & Elizabeth The Golden Age, Atonement for the Green Dress and Monster in Law every outfit worn by Jane Fonda was fabulous!

A View To A Kill (1985)
Ghost (1990) - I loved Whoopi Goldberg's outfits in that movie, in the funniest sense.
The Hours (2002)

Loved Lauren Hutton wardrobe in American Gigolo. Quintessential upper class but with a effortless, elegant and casual vibe. Plus Richard Gere in Armani suits were bliss.

[Chanelcouture09]

^I concur.

That whole movie could be an editorial in Vogue Paris.

Mermaids

Picnic at Hanging Rock
The Hunger (another Catherine Deneuve film. it's sooooo 80s and so fantastic)

Unfaithful (something about Diane Lane's relaxed and classic wardrobe in this film gets me)
W.E. (a new favourite of mine)

that's more than enough.

^Oh! I loved the clothes that Natasha Richardson's character wore in Parent Trap. They were so elegant and I remember realizing that, even as a young child. And of course, who could forget the wedding dress shop scene? One of the highlights of that film!

[Gábor]

^Absolutely agree!

I was watching Melancholia awhile ago and Charlotte Gainsbourg's style in the film is impeccable. She even had a PS1 satchel in a couple scenes. Loved it!

Russia's old world to me is a deeply atmospheric place, full of passion and romance. And, of course, at her heart stands St Petersburg - majestic, elegant and beautiful.



Having recently watched the new version of Anna Karenina, I was moved to create this video which shows St Petersburg as the perfect setting for the love stories of two great Russian writers Count Leo Tolstoy and Alexander Pushkin. The love stories of Anna Karenina and Onegin are both deeply moving and, as with many love stories, tragic too.

But as well as the romance of the people is the captivating and often breathtaking beauty of the natural settings, costume, architecture and interiors. Old world Russia - a country to inspire writers, musicians, choreographers and architects. An aesthete's paradise.

wow I just saw Dial M for Murder and Grace Kelly's wardrobe was PERFECTION!!! The red dress, the night gown, the gray dress, the brown coat EVERYTHING and all of the men also were dressed to perfection, loved every bit of it

Any recommendations from the late 90s?

I was trying to find some late 1990's but I couldn't think of any.
Of course my favourite 90's fashion movie is Clueless. (1995) Pretty Woman is I think, 1990.

There are a lot of Fashionable 1990's television shows:
Twin Peaks (1990-1991) but Joan Chen's wardrobe in this movie is to die for. I've only discovered this recently.
My So Called Life for Grunge
Sex and the City vintage for the first 2 seasons, designer for the last 4
Hilary Banks on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air for Beverly Hills Princess
Rachel Green on Friends
Grace on Will and Grace in the early seasons is cute
Tea Leoni's character on The Naked Truth
if you want to see some ultimate 90's fashion check out Blossom It's quintessential

Movies - Some stylish icons:
2001 - Margot Tenenbaum in The Royal Tenenbaums
2002 - The character that Amanda Peet plays in Igby Goes Down
2003 - The character that Kate Hudson plays in Le Divorce

The chunky brown knee-high boots in the opening of The Devil Wears Prada always drive me crazy.

Just going through the thread again somebody mentioned A Perfect Murder (1998). I've always been a fan of that movie and Gwyneth is super chic.
