Costume Commentary

  1. Exactly, Anna. She’s Sunnyi Melles as Senatorin Möllendorf… By the way, does anyone now where I can watch “Buddenbrooks”?? Because this show never came here (Argentina), except in HBO…

  2. The actress from “Die Buddenbrooks” is Sunnyi (yes, yi) Melles, actually a born princesse to sayn-wittgenstein, or so says the IMDB (I believe, she married into it), playing senatorin möllendorf.
    PS: Lovely find. Always loved the dress against the baltic beachy backdrop.
