We have a Victorian gown that is reused in earnest, but with a twist, as well as a really incredible headboard that I am sure originated somewhere else, though I do not know where.
It’s funny, you guys often beat me to costumes. I found one the other day and had planned to update it in a few weeks, but as of this morning, it rolled right in from one of you. I think we must all be on the same wavelength or something.
It’s been a crazy week! I had a friend get married at my house, so you can imagine!
A Happy Easter to you all! In the U.S. for some reason, Easter is celebrated on television by the airing of the costume drama The Ten Commandments. Why? I have no idea.

Katie is the creator of Recycled Movie Costumes, where she’s constantly haunted by the ghosts of costumes past. One day, she had an epiphany: if she had to suffer through these recycled costumes, then so should everyone else! And thus, Recycled Movie Costumes was born.
Contrary to popular belief, Katie does not have a photographic memory, nor does she work in the costume industry. She’s just a girl whose life has slowly spiraled out of control after watching too many costume dramas on Masterpiece Theatre.

Easter here doesn’t really have traditional movies, unlike Christmas where the Sissi trilogy is always aired. However, the Easter holidays are called quiet holidays, so public dancing and loud music aren’t allowed as well as some movies among them The Life of Brian. People have protested against that but so far nothing has really ever changed. I honestly think this should change because I don’t think the church should have so much influence on a secular state and it’s laws. If people want to spend these days in quiet, they can, but if – like I – they aren’t Christian, they shouldn’t have to follow areligion’s rules they aren’t part of. Anyhow, this week I found out that Hallmark made a movie with an actress I really like and while the historical costumes do not appear in the movie, there are some on the poster. I personally can’t identify them but I thought I might throw them to the hive mind and someone might recognize them. 
Oh thank you! I couldn’t remember if the Sissi trilogy was played at Easter or Christmas. Thanks for letting me know. I remember hearing it was a holiday favorite, but couldn’t remember which one!
I don’t immediately see any reused costumes here in this photo, but I’ll keep this in mind and might find something!
Yeah it’s Christmas. I assume it is mostly because it coincides with Elisabeth’s actual birthday which is Christmas Eve. Interestingly they usually show it on the 25th and 26th, and not the 24th. Probably because the 24th is THE Christmas holiday in Germany since we exchange gifts that evening and get together with our core family for dinner, so usually most people don’t have time for TV since they are either at church or cooking/cleaning/preparing for guests.
