About the Costume

This coat was first seen in a 1977 episode of The Duchess of Duke Street titled Your Country Needs You, where Gemma Jones wore it as Louisa Trotter. While the costume was almost certainly used again, it was not spotted until Cheryl Campbell wore it as Lady Boynton in the 2008 episode of Poirot entitled Appointment with Death. In 2010 it was worn by Penelope Wilton as Isobel Crawley in Downton Abbey, and in 2012 it was recycled for Titanic, where Celia Imrie wore it as Grace Rushton.

Costume Commentary

  1. It does almost look like they’ve removed everything and put it on another costume…it’s very odd. I can’t really tell what they’ve done, but whatever it is, it just…doesn’t look very good. It seems rather ill-fitting…

  2. What have they done to it? It appears as though they’ve either placed another costume over the top of the coat, or they’ve removed the collar, cuffs, pocket accents, belt, etc. to use with this piece. (The stitching looks terrible!)

  3. Gah, I should have looked for online promo images last night before posting!

    It’s also seen in Julian Fellowes’ new mini series, Titanic (2012), on Celia Imrie as Grace Rushton.
