I thaught of a fun thing to talk about...

Is there any item of clothing you have seen a charactor wearing in a movie or show that you wish you could find and wear??

For me, I was watching "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and I would love to find something similar to the satin gown that the female role, Marian, wore. It looked devine!

Also, if you have seen Happy Gilmore, the white satin dress that Happy's tour manager wears...mmmmm

How about you?

To the OP, I loved the satin nightgown Marion wears too, its really gorgous....
Have you seen "Rollover" with Jane Fonda. She wears 2 absolute gorgous flowing evening gowns in it, and in one scene she wears one gown coming down some high stairs. I've always thought this was my fave scene in any movie. How I'd love to ber her in that gorgous gown.
Another one is "Bitter moon" with Kristian Scott Thomas. Theres a scene where she dances with another lady on a dance floor, and shes in the most beautiful ball gown. Its got a A-line skirt part too it, and it just flows....
How I'd love to dance in that.

Jodi I have concur with you. Now if I was to look for something I would like to dress in outside my usual it would be from the movies of the roman era or renaeisance. Or from the series "Girls next door". Also catwoman (Halle Berry) LOL. But then I would need breast augmentation to make it work right, Yessssssss.

That's the first thing I came away with when I saw that movie:heehee:--I kept replaying the scene as she walked down the staircase---the shoes were killer too! BTW, the rest of the movie was pretty cool!

...but hey, I'm a silly person! :heehee:

First up, I'd love to have one of the leafy bathing caps that appear in the following scene from The Monkees (accompanying cream pie in the face optional). From the looks of them, they were made for girls, but I think at least one of their wearers (Davey Jones) looks really cute in his! What a horrible use to put them to, though!

FlbQzej5SLs

Then, from the movie Dumb and Dumber, I always had a thing for the rather pixie-ish-looking blue smocks worn by the beauticians in the following segment:

krhtaYi_Rpc

Funnily enough, those smocks ended up being one of my favourite memories from the movie! (How often do the rest of us find that happening - our favourite memory of a film or TV show is of something one of the characters wore in it?)

Also, I'm sure that in all my years watching Doctor Who (the classic series in particular), there've been many rather camp-looking costumes in that (both male and female) which I've drooled over.

Finally, years ago on the Australian soap Neighbours, there was a scene in which one of the male characters (Joe Mangel, for those familiar with that tragic show) was humiliated on his buck's night by being dressed in a metallic purple evening dress and handcuffed to a bridge. That scene pissed me of so much - what a waste of a beautiful dress! :Angry3:

Totally, totally agree, except for Barbarella which was her one great shinning moment, the high point of her life.

I think it was in "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen" where Alison Pill wore these ridiculously tall converse style sneakers. I also spotted them recently on Gwen Stefani's Hollaback Girl video.

http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm4/TracySchapes/ultrabootssm.jpg

So I bought them. Don't know when or where I'll wear them, but they are cool!

I'm convinced that not only do I think I'm female, but 16 and Japanese. I'm totally delusional. :eek:

-Tracy

That's a cool pair of boots/sneakers. I'd be tempted to get a pair myself were it not for the fact I've been cursed with stupid itchy soles that require me to periodically take whatever I'm wearing off the offending foot and give my sole a good scratch; I wouldn't like having to unlace and then re-lace one of those monsters every time that happened! God, I hate itches, particularly since I once read that no-one knows why we get them in the first place - they don't seem to serve any purpose. On a lighter note, I'm a fan of "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen". Utterly dumb movie, but good fun all the same. Lohan's character wore quite a few really eye-catching outfits in it as I recall.

I agree totally with the grace kelly dresses but my favourite is the dress she wore in her first scene. I bought a collection of Hitchcock DVD's just to have a pic of this gown. The costume designer Edith Head did most of the dresses in the Hitchcock movies and most of her designs are fantastic. The dress worn by Doris Day in the restaurant scene in "the man who knew too much" is also on my list.
Take a look at this short Youtube scene for a look at Grace Kelly.

First, I'm totally into Jennifer Love Hewitt...so I'd go with pretty much anything that she wore in the movie Heartbreakers.

Happy Gilmore's tour manager was also quite stylishly dressed in the whole movie. I liked her style.

Another option would be (from TV) what Olivia Dunham wears on the show Fringe.

Both the Chanel boots from The Devil Wears Prada and of course Ms Parkers leather skirts.

These shoe/boots actually have a zipper on the inside of the shoe. So once you do lace them (and trust me it took me over an hour for the 35 laces to get them balanced) it's easy on, easy off.

If anyone is interested I can send you the link...

I just recently commented that I would watch Happy Gilomore just for the clothes that his tour manager/girlfriend wears!!

I haven't seen so many things in movies, but more and more, when I look at women these days, I find myself saying, "Oh, that's cute. I'd like to try that outfit" or "I don't think that I'd look good in that" or "I love those shoes and that top."

What a popular topic!

I used to watch "Little House on the Prairie" first because I wanted to wear those fantastic long calico dresses and second because I had a crush on Melissa Gilbert like you wouldn't believe.

One of these days I'm going to make a Princess Leia senatorial gown (from the real Star Wars, not those cheap knockoff sequels).

I *did* make a Dorothy dress for Halloween one year - the one and only time I went out in a dress. It was great. I didn't shave for several weeks so I had a thick stubble, my girlfriend's cheap costume wig, and an easter basket to carry around a stuffed dog in... and I won first prize for the costume.

I guess I'd better stop before I get carried away. Pretty much every movie I see, I'm looking at the dresses thinking how I'd like to wear them.

I agree with the Senatorial gown out of the original Star Wars. How about the Elektra outfit, like I would ever have the body for it, LOL. I also find myself watching my wife's soaps to see the outfits that some of the beautiful women are wearing. And speaking of NCIS, the fantastic blue gown Ziva (Cote de Pablo) wore in the nightclub scene before the explosion.....Stephanie

P.S. I forgot about the Swiss Dot outfit in brown that Julia Roberts wears to the Polo match in Pretty Woman, complete with hat of course. And of course the red dress she wore to the opera, and..........

Or anything in "My Fair Lady" or "Breakfast at Tiffany's" or "Roman Holiday". I heart Audrey Hepburn. And not just because she was a style icon, but because of her good works too.

But I just might! Hmmm...

A movie I saw just recently which featured something I liked was "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" - while they were waiting outside the titular factory, Violet Beauregard and her mother were wearing silver puffer jackets that I very much liked the look of. As another of the characters from that movie might have said, "I want one Daddy! I want one RIGHT NOW!"
