I’m pretty sure this is the same costume, seen here on a member of the chorus in a 1982 production of Gilbert & Sullivan’s _The Gondoliers_ which appeared on BBC.

Log in to ReplyOh yeah, that is absolutely the same dress. Great catch. And I’ve never heard of that film – I will have to check it out. Thank you!

Log in to Replyi am sure this is the same dress look at the pleats on the skirt and I have seen colour pictures of Nyree Dawn Porter in the dress and it is blue and white stripes
Log in to ReplyI’ve never seen the Dracula film, so I can’t comment on that costume. But I’m currently watching Forsyte and I can assure you that the dress is made of striped fabric. I’d want to see more angles of the Dracula costume before ruling it out.
Log in to ReplyThanks Anna!
Log in to ReplyI have to agree with Anna. The older dress is a two piece and I am not convinced that I see a waist seam on the newer dress. I think there is just a shared style on the bodice styling, but not te same dress.
Log in to ReplyI don’t think this is the same costume. There’s a resemblance in the triangular area below a wide collar, but compare the size of the collar, the size of the triangular area, the trim on the collar and triangle, and the cuffs.
Log in to Replyis that really the same dress? or is it two dresses after the very same cut?? or is it even a inside-out-dress? because one seems to be white, tha other light blue striped. one collar has black trimmings, the other hasn’t.
