1980
Costume seen on Kim Novak as Lola Brewster
1998
Costume seen on Virginia García as Princess Gabriella
2003
Costume seen on Elodie Kendall as Mercer Elphinstone
2007
Costume seen on Emma Watson as Pauline Fossil
This beautiful costume was first worn by Kim Novak as Lola Brewster in the 1980 adaptation of The Mirror Crack’d. It was not seen again until 1998, though almost certainly was used between those years. It appeared again in Ever After on Virginia García as Princess Gabriella with the sleeves having been altered. The dress was spotted a third time in 2003 in Byron on Elodie Kendall as Mercer Elphinstone. This time, the gown is difficult to spot, as a stomacher has been tacked onto the front of the dress. In 2007 the dress appeared on Emma Watson as Pauline Fossil in Ballet Shoes.

I’m pretty sure I found this in a third production a few years ago. I’ll see if I can track it down. (Sandra’s caps from Ballet Shoes and Ever After are better than mine.)
Edit: I just found it. LOL, it was tucked away in the Byron thread. ;o)

(She’s also wearing the peacock collar from Ever After.)
Log in to ReplyAh! Wow! Yes, thank you! I see the stomacher is covering over the details! I had a feeling you’d found this dress before,but could not find it.
Log in to ReplyThank you! I noticed something interesting. Look at the underside of the peacock collar…it looks like gold underneath. I don’t think it’s the one from the image below – but there are several gold collars floating around (that I’ve not posted yet) and I wonder if it was built on top of one of them…
The Ever After peacock one has the gold appliques along the edge and down to the neckline (unlike The Tudors one on Tamzin…which interestingly has the gold on the underside too, it seem like most don’t)

Log in to ReplyI thought I would mention in this thread about collars that there are some spectacular collars, ruffs, and sleeves in this 1972 mini series of The Duchess of Malfi.

Interesting. (I don’t know?) Here it is in Ever After.
