I can attest that I am usually on the late train when it comes to watching popular films but I have also seen some
pretty obscure titles due to my random DVD selections from the library. When I picked up the 2008 "Australia" movie directed by Baz Luhrmann recently, little did I know that it was going to be set in the fashionable 1930's and 40's. Nicole Kidman's character, Lady Sarah Ashley, wore finely tailored suits, perfectly structured bodices, and amazing accessories that instantly pulled me in wanting more.
The wardrobe did not go unrecognized as the costumer for this film, Catherine Martin, was nominated for the Best Costume Academy Award that year. Nicole's outfits were paired with clean, simple makeup, the occasional rouge lip, and impeccably coiffed hair until the real action kicked in.
Excuse me while I swoon a few years too late but it is better late then never, right? For more styles (and Hugh Jackman fix) check them out
