Costume Commentary

  1. probably reworn by a courtier in “bill” 2015. the other two costumes shown in the left half of this picture are also recycled. at least i’m very sure about the male costume. it was worn by jonathan rhys meyers in the first season of “the tudors”. the woman’s costume shows astonishingly close similarites to this (http://www.recycledmoviecostumes.com/costume/tudorelizabethan023.html)/#cst-tudorelizabethan023. costume originating from “elizabeth” 1998 except for the colouring of the brown/purple parts and maybe the detailing of the puffed and gathered sleeves. maybe they have been redone? there are plenty more reused costumes in bill i have already recognized. just need to make up my mind where to post them
