Researched extensively at the BFI library, the book examines this influence through 45 films across seven genres. 'Crime: Dressed to Kill' investigates the darker side of human nature that has provided us with style-obsessed archetypes, from the noir detective to the femme fatale. 'The Musical: Spectacular Fashion' looks at the lavish excess of this mid-century favourite and how it continues to inspire designers, while 'Historical Epic: Dressed to Excess' shows that the distant past still has the power to inspire the future, especially when mediated through the glamour of the film lens. 'Horror: Supernatural Chic' centres on the aesthetics of the paranormal, and how blood and monsters can provide unlikely inspiration for dress. 'Romantic Drama: Seductive Style' concentrates on the role of love and heartbreak in adorning the body, while 'Sci-Fi & Fantasy: Bionic Bodies' explores how our obsession with the future, or alternative realities, can shape the styles of the present. Finally 'Art House & Independent: Style with Substance' focuses on films that are made outside the mainstream, shaped by an auteur, whose particular vision can provide unique inspiration for the world of style"--Publisher's description ER -
