MY FAIR LADY

Last night I had the pleasure of watching MY FAIR LADY. This film is about a Professor who dares an acquaintance that he can teach any woman to speak so properly that he could pass her off as a duchess. So, he challenges himself to turn a woman, with a poor accent, into royalty. My Fair Lady was originally a book that was formed into a play and than adapted to film. The costumes in this movie are delightful. They help tell a story from beginning to end. You are able to see the crescendo from Rags to Riches.


The costume designer for this film was Cecil Beaton. Due to Cecil's strong photography skills, all the scenes in this movie seems to appear as a photo still. I found myself eager to see what was next!

You need to check out this movie! It's a good break from all this reality TV.

PEACE!

I Heart Narnia

I am so excited about Chronicles Narnia's sequel "Prince Caspian". I use to read these books when I was a little kid. More importantly, I am excited to see the costumes. I wasn't sure if I mentioned this before but, I've studied fashion design and costume design when I was in college.

I love how costumes can help form a character. The costumes help take a 2-D idea into a 3-D masterpiece.

Also, I have an obsession for the medieval period. The name "Lady of Mayhem" is a play on Joan of Arc. My collection is influence by the medieval period as well.

Peace,
