february isn't over yet, so show yourself some love with Care/of! ❤
I deeply appreciate that you reiterate that these are your personal taste. I care much more for your opinion than the typical top choices that the collective seem to agree upon. Personally I think my favorite is the matching red dresses from the opening of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.
not so much "cinematic" history as "hollywood" history. Was expecting some entries from international films
The haircut that Padme had with the purple senate dress is NOT European it’s CONGOLESE! From the Mangbetu people, clearly appropriation here smh
Loved this so much! Isn't the next one coming up today...? xx
What about the hunger games dress it was a nice dress though
A video ranking Padmé’s wardrobe would actually be a dream come true. As a child I’ve always loved her costumes, and the costume design of the prequels as a whole.
Yes please! Every Padme's outfit was amazing 🤩
Yes pls!
One of the things the Star Wars prequels did ABSOLUTELY right was Padme's wardrobe.
yes this would be instantly iconic!
yess!!!!
Honorable mention to Jessica Rabbit who should be on this list as a animated/live action film character
i think it was mentioned in the blurb of another video that the sparkly jessica dress is pink. so It'll be on a pink list most likely
That and betty boop!
@@vivaenmiriana Hope it comes up then, she's iconic
Came here to say this!
I remember her dress pink
Padmé’s throne room gown is even more special than most people realize. The white makeup was also intended to erase unique features, while the large elaborate headdress was designed to distract from her face. Both techniques made it easier for a decoy to step into her position. Also, as heavy and restrictive as it may appear, her throne room gown was well equipped for an emergency, with blaster-proof coating, concealed weapons and recording devices, and even an escape hatch allowing her to literally “evacuate” her dress if need be.
Came down here to find this comment. Thank you for adding context!
Fairy Godmother’s red I Need a Hero dress is literally iconic. No one can ever wear a similar dress without someone making a reference to her
But wasn't it inspired by Marylin Monroe dress in "Gentlemen preeìfer blondes"?
@@Laurelin70 inspired? Damn thats a huge deviation from the inspired material then
The santa claus dress from mean girls definetely made an enormous impact on pop culture!
That wasn't actually a dress, it was two separate pieces - a skirt and a top.
@@Nemisionn !!
@@bye1546 yes dear?
@@Nemisionn i was just agreeing with you doing “!!”
@@bye1546 I see, okay. I thought maybe it was like.. "but wait!" type of !!
As a Mongolian, I loved Padme's red dress! I remember immediately recognizing it's inspiration from Mongolian traditional bridal attire, felt kind of surreal. I think it's suits the movie and the character really well.
Just a fun detail to add, the green dresses Mina wears in Bram Stoker's Dracula were also a reference to her sexuality, not innocence. She's shown to be repressed, secretly reading porn and jealous of Lucy's freedom. Lucy also wears a very revealing green dress while she's flirting with her three suitors. When Dracula comes into Mina's room, the mist he transforms into is bright green, and they reference absinthe and the Green Fairy. So the red dress seems less like an awakening to her sexuality so much as an acceptance and realization of the sexuality that was already there. I imagine that it's not an accident that green and red are also opposites on the color wheel. I believe I heard that Eiko Ishioka was inspired by beetles, but I don't remember where.
Green, while we often associate it with nature today, was also seen as a color of sexuality and promiscuity for many years. In the Elizebethan era, a "green gown" was a reference to getting grass stains from having sex outdoors. The song "Greensleeves" has a few interpretations. It's either about a promiscuous woman (or prostitute), or the singer mistakes her for being promiscous and is proven wrong. It's a fun thing to research if you make a "Best Green Dresses in Cinematic History" video!
This discussion also maybe works with the Scarlett O'Hara dress since hers was originally green in the book.
I love green and I love this bit of green history! Thank you fir sharing this!
Thank you for your knowledge!!
@@itsyissel If you want to learn more, I'd recommend History of a Color by Michel Pastoureau! It's an entire series, but he has a volume on green specifically. It's also limited to western art history, as colors' meanings vary greatly by culture and it's basically impossible to cover it all in one book.
@@mallorycarpinski1160 I didn't know that! You're right, that's perfect! Is it possibly also a callback to her green curtain dress? Sort of a full circle moment because that dress was meant to seduce Rhett? I haven't read the book, and it's been a very long time since I saw the movie, but I remember my mom being very insistent that she had vibrant green eyes. So green becomes her signature color for everything, even when she's the young coquette early in the story bringing in dozens of suitors except the one she wants. That's a fascinating way to come full circle, especially if she doesn't wear green after that.
Padmé’s gown in The Phantom Menace was always my favourite Star Wars costume growing up!
She had some of the greatest costumes in all of cinema, in my opinion.
All of her gowns are gorgeous!!
@@nataleenightmare7923 oh yeah definitely
@@nataleenightmare7923 it’s not a costume though it’s an actual Mongolian court dress
the red Padme dress being included made me SO happy, and tbh i'd love to see a style analysis video on Padme's clothing throughout the prequel movies!!
yess, more star wars please!!
YESSS
Totally!!!
Yes please!! I've always loved her costume design, so intricate and beautiful.
I am on my knees BEGGING for a Padme Amidala style analysis video. Her costuming, while inconsistent in its references, was just divine. I’d watch the hell out of you breaking her best outfits down for us
Titanic and The Phantom Menace are the films that gave me my earliest appreciation of costume design, so I'm happy they're included! On the horror side of things, I really appreciate Lucille's deep red dress that looks like dripping blood in Crimson Peak, and the red dress with the big bow worn by Mia Goth's character Pearl, in the prequel to "X" from last year.
Absolutely agree, the "pool of blood" dress was absolutely breathtaking. The level of craftsmanship involved and it's impact to the story are hard to overestimate. It's a pity that not many people appreciate Kate hawley's work there.
For real, Pearl's red dress is a modern classic
Crimson Peak costumes are something out of this world! Everything is absolutely perfect and well designed for the characters. I love that scene which Edith notices that some butterflies are dying because her hat is yellow and black - just like the butterflies she is holding...
Lucille's red dress is DIVINE- I also really love the blue one she wears at Allerdale, and how it mirrors the house itself.
For the orange dress, I love Marilyn’s dress in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and Effie’s Butterfly dress in Catching Fire🧡
Omg it has to, just so iconic
I love that Alexander McQueen dress! Effie's that is. The shoes that it was paired with on the runway are my favourite of all time!
Yes, I was also going to comment about the butterfly dress in Hunger Games
7:13 i’m glad you mentioned the deleted scene because it really puts more context in how disheveled Rose is and how trapped she feels. They should’ve left that in the movie.
Until now, I actually didn't know there was a deleted scene. Very interesting, and yes, it makes the following scene much more understandable.
idk why but her pulling her gloves off that very obviously have stretch in them and no buttons at the wrist makes me happy they didnt put it in lol it suddenly feels so modern. also the movie is already extremely long so idk think some of these cuts were just necessary
I remember watching the red dress scene in Last Holiday and being speechless and completely captivated by how beautiful queen latifah looked in it! I looked at my sister and told her I wanted that dress to be my prom dress😍 I myself was considered a plus size black girl in those dreadful 2000s and queen latifah always looked beautiful on screen to me! Thanks for adding that clip, The nostalgia is so bitter sweet it made me feel the same as when I first saw it 2006!!!
I've not seen that film but she looked phenomenal in that dress!
@Pink Girl it almost ruined me but I made it thru LOL!
I remember when I first saw the movie how stunning she looked in her outfits, and watching the clips confirmed she looked stunning in her outfits
Satine’s red bustle gown from Moulin Rouge will always be my favorite cinematic red dress! She was in it only briefly but it was so impactful!
Same!
Her dress was the first one that came in my mind reading the video title ♥ I love that dress
@@hellykitto2833 yes! same!
With all the talk abt Star Wars in the comments, I was literally ahead of myself thinking, wait… Satine Kyrze never wore red in the Clone Wars.. and then I saw “Moulin Rouge” 🤣
@@goldie1089 SAME OMG LOL!!!! Satine is a great character in both imo
The red dress from Gone with the Wind still takes my breath away. It's just so gorgeous (and so is the actress). I've never seen the Dracula movie, but I think that red dress is gorgeous as well!
Like the movie or not, the dresses throughout the movie are epic
My prom dress was inspired by Rose's Red Titanic dress. I had gotten it at Fashion Bug in 1999. It was originally priced at $60 but I had gotten it for a steep discount I think around $10 because there was a tear in it but I know how to sew and it was in an out-of-the-way place and I was able to repair it so that you could not tell it had been damaged. I still have that dress somewhere and I had gotten a lot of use out of it besides just my senior prom
These stories are always the best fashion stories to read :D
Dang… I would LOVE to see a photo of this dress, if you happen to have one. That would have been a dream come true for teenage-me!
Mine too! It had a slight color variation--it was more raspberry than cherry red, but it had the same cut, beading, etc. I bought it from a woman who had a dress shop in the basement of her house--it was like a little private shopping boutique. No other girl at my (junior) prom had a dress like mine.
I think Vivienne's red dress in Pretty Woman is so iconic and really is the moment people begin to see her differently. The red dress in You Before Me. It is the moment the relationship becomes more serious. And finally, the red dress from Only You!! The dress that Marisa Tomei finds her destiny in. If you haven't seen that movie, I HIGHLY recommend it. The chemistry of Robert Downey Jr. and Marisa Tomei is off the charts in that one!!
I love that you included Last Holiday. Whenever my beautiful mother says some nonsense about being too big to be glamorous, I remind her of Queen Latifah in That Dress. Maybe not the most "serious" movie, but so iconic!
i now need an analysis of all of Padme's clothes!! But seriously the costumes in the prequel were definitely such a stand out vs the Skywalker trilogy.
Amidala will forever be my favorite. I actually think all of her costumes will always be my absolute favorite for any one character ever. The designs are so next level and all fit her character and the world of Naboo so well. Literally couture on screen. Don’t know if they will ever be topped
Scarlet O’Hara’s red gown from Gone With the Wind is breathtaking.
If i had to make a second part of this video, i would add Lucille's Sharp red dress from Crimson Peak and Pearl's red dress from Pearl. I know that they are more recent compared to the other movies, but those dresses are so pretty!
Yes! As well as another video for different colors!
I bet the yellow house dress from Crimson Peak will be in the yellow dress video
The red Victorian gown Jessica Chastain wears in her introduction as Lucille in Guillermo del Toro's Crimson Peak would be on my list, honestly. The level of detail Kate Hawley threw into that dress is awe-inspiring. You know EVERYTHING you need to know about Lucille the moment you meet her just from that dress alone. How, while well maintained, it's a decade old to signify her decaying economic status. How the stiff, high necked structure tells you both her sour personality beneath politeness. How the color ties her to the red clay of her home. Even how the train resembles a pool of blood, and the bodice ties resemble a spinal column to symbolize her true corrupted nature. ARGH! SO GOOD!
That dress was a work of art.
One reason why I love Gone With the Wind's costuming, is that there were still people who would have experienced and lived in those clothes and were still alive.
Scarlett O'Haras' dress is one of the best red dresses I've ever seen in cinema along with Pretty Woman. I didn't know the implication of the rouge line, I thought it was because she would be blushing from embarrassment. But now that line has a whole new meaning, Rhett Butler can really sting when it's deserved, honestly one of my favorite male characters of all time.
the red dress the fairy god mother wears in shrek 2 is just 😍 ugh iconic
It kind of makes sense that in Titanic Rose doesn't have crown! Her family declining, her mother literally trying to sell her to the rich guy, it's very possible that crown was sold to afford dresses and tickets, since dresses is vital part of society and crown is optional
I’ve always loved Elizabeth Swan’s red dress in the first POTC, the one the pirates gave her to wear when she boarded Barbosa’s ship. An edgy contrast from the champagne gold dress she was gifted from France earlier in the movie.
Scarlett’s red dress is ICONIC. The still photo of her standing in the entry way with the cocked eyebrow is perfection🙌 and there’s the red coat on the little Jewish girl in the black & white film Schindler’s List. Such a small detail, yet so powerful.
This is a great list. Thank you for including Last Holiday! It's a beautiful gown. I immediately thought of Nicole Kidman's dress from Moulin Rouge and Julia Roberts Pretty Woman.
Pretty woman dress yeeesss
Michelle Pfeiffer's red dress in The Fabulous Baker Boys as she writhes around on top of the grand piano is one of Hollywood's most iconic looks!!!
I love that Tim Burton picked out Lydia's dress specifically. I always loved the puffy material, despite it not being the most desirable circumstances. Also, I adore the more in depth analysis. ❤️😍
I know this is more about fashion but I instantly thought of the Little Girl in the Red Coat from Schindler’s List. That scene is so powerful. The Red Coat being one of few colors in the black & white film. The symbolism.
Scarlets dress on Vivian Leigh in GWTW, that whole scene with her framed in the doorway and her look of defiance, is the GOAT.
It's beyond iconic.
Agree
So glad you included Padme 👏👏👏 her wardrobe was amazing in all 3 prequels but the red dress is very special.
The entire fight scene in House of Flying Daggers, both lovers were completely dressed in red, beautiful scene. Director Zhang Yimou knows how to play with color, there is also this gorgeous scene where they are all wearing green which made them blend into Japan bamboo laid forest.
Though I know that this list is only for live action dresses, Jessica Rabbit's iconic red, sparkling gown was always eye catching to me. ❤️
Totally!
Absolutely! I also would add Esmeralda’s red dress from Hunchback. It’s iconic!
I am SO GLAD you've included The Dressmaker in this film!! What a spectacular piece of Australian cinema.
So glad the costume design of 102 Dalmatians gets a mention here. One of my favorite film scenes ever is when Cruella reverts back to her old self, shown in how her hair and costume changes as the scene progresses.
For the next orange dress episode - surely Marilyn’s/Loralei’s orange evening dress is on the list! That walk in moment is so iconic ✨🧡
Belle’s (Lea Seydoux) red dress from the French Beauty and the Beast is beautiful and is worn when she returns to save the Beast, acknowledging her love. Also from the cdrama Goodbye My Princess Xiao Feng’s red dress, which she’s wearing when she’s first introduced and is the most free in the whole show. Afterwards, every other red dress she wears is a wedding dress in two consecutive tragic weddings
For an arguably orange dress, the handmaiden outfit in the Phantom Menace that is ombre dyed from yellow to orange with the red scarf around the waist. I think that she wore it on the ship after they picked up Anakin from Tatooine. There was a lot of tutorials back when the film came out in in the following 10 years or so on how to ombre dye velvet. Also, the some Queen's dresses from Mirror Mirror are definitely in the orange family. Or maybe gold. It really depends on the screen that I watch it on.
Hello sariah how are you doing today?
I just love love love the costumes of Gone with the Wind so much, to me, Vivien Leigh's dresses are the most iconic in the world
Natalie Wood's orange dress in West Side Story will always be iconic !
I was really surprised you didn't include the red dress Julia Robert's wore to dinner in Pretty Woman (when she didn't know how to eat snails, and she got to wear the gorgeous necklace). It was the first one that popped into my head
I've always been mesmerized with Padmé Amidala's whole wardrobe. I'm very glad to see you highlighting it.
If I had to add another red dress to the list I would choose any of the many Cersei Lannister's iconic silhouette, the character was defined by them.
So much respect for putting Queen Amidala's dress own this list. Then again, I'm probably bias due to the fact that I am a personal friend of her's.
Shoshanna’s dress colour could also be interpreted as her anger coming to the surface over the blood of her family being spilled and the fact she knows she will likely not survive the night - she dresses in the same colour as fire bc she knows the theatre will go down in flames
I'm only a few seconds in and at the mention of purple, Rita Moreno's iconic West Side Story dress IMMEDIATELY came to mind. 💜
Nice take on Gone With the Wind! Especially how the red is used to contrast with her signature green. Because Scarlett is driven by green, envy, and spite but isn't particularly loving or sexual, which like you said red tends to symbolize.
On the Scarlett O'Hara dress, I have a Barbie doll of Scarlett in that dress. It is the one doll I have kept in the box. It resides on the top shelf of the bookcase next to my computer desk.
Glenn Close has been allowed to keep the costumes from many of her films and Broadway plays. She has donated the entire collection to Indiana University.
Vivien Leigh's red Gone with the Wind dress is hands down the most iconic red dress of all time.
So happy you included Winona Ryder's red dress. I always found it memorable, I recently found myself using it as a wedding dress reference when I had artist block. I like how youthful it is. It's really frilly and light.
SO excited to see a revival of this series in the upgraded format! looking forward to the upcoming rainbow of dresses
Merilyns orange dress with Jane Russel by her side as they walk down the stairs among the rest of the guest had pure power
As a Mongolian khalkha woman, Padme,s red dresses, especially the one with the very khalkha Mongolian headwear, will also give me the ick. Every time I see it, I see something my great grandmothers had worn now being stripped of it’s history and culture and being used to look alien and weird. Too often I see a Mongolian woman‘s photo on the internet with someone commenting that she looks like Padme from star wars. No, Padme looks like her! Not the other way around.
Feel you girl. I had to check her in the comments too for overlooking the inappropriateness of using those cultural outfits
If it wasn't for Star Wars, we wouldn't even know about Mongolian clothing.
@@mistymarshall5438 who’s “WE”? Talk about YOURSELF at the 3rd person if you want but don’t act like we’re un worldly backward people! Those of us who use the Internet for other things than SM and Wanking and know about libraries BEEN knowing about other cultures outside America 🙄
If get your education from movies make it your own business and shame the devil
@@antoniacapellaborges6566 Who said Mongolians are backwards worldly people? Where in SW did it say that? And how do you know where I get my info? Newsflash: most science fiction uses ancient cultures and costumes to depict the future and otherworldly cultures (see "Blade Runner". Or the Vulcan hand salute, which is a Jewish priestly blessing of the Kohanim. Or "Babylon 5" which is the name of an ancient Mesopotamian civilization. Or the Fremen of Dune.) The Senate dress Amidala wore in TPM was based on the IMPERIAL court attire of Mongolian Empress Dondogdulam and Queen Consort Genepil who were married to Bogd Khan, until the monarchy was abolished in 1924. In 1937 Genepil was accused of conspiring with Japan and executed by the Mongolian People's Republic.
@@mistymarshall5438 girl STFU! Stop playing wth my words.Where in there did talk s** about Mongolians?! If you can’t read what I wrote DO NOT COMMENT! I’m not even gonna entertain you, words mean things, learn them!
This is such a great list, loved seeing Padme included. I know there are already so many victorian dresses here but I definitely think Lucille's red dress in Crimson Peak should be a contender! The craftsmanship and symbolism in that gown is astounding.
i'm so glad you mentioned scarletts red dress! i was almost named after scarlett as my mom was a huge gone with the wind fan. thankfully i ended up with a much more subtle gone with the wind fan name
I recall the yellow plaid skirt suit from Clueless. I hadn't remembered the red one. Also, really happy with the Gone With The Wind pick.
For orange, the 2 that immediately come to mind are the Zuul dress from Ghostbusters, and Marilyn Monroe in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.
Oh I know! My favorite red dress is from a musical called Once on this Island. A similar Little Mermaid story about a pleasant girl falling in love with a rich boy. Ti Moune is the girl's name and she wears a beautiful tropical red dress that was so flowy and when she dance - it just looked amazing on the stage! Plus, red is considered tacky in this island so for her to stand out and look beautiful is an extra chef kiss!
I love too the Pearl (2022) red dress. In the movie, Pearl and her mother are kinda enemies, going with different ideals, while Pearl is an aspirant artist, her mother is a rational realist woman. Pearl dreams to be a famous dancer, using even her mother old dresses to express this, what her mother always reprove, thinking she need to stop with foolish fantasies and just do her work. Looking to her clothing, Pearl uses more blue and red, blue to represent her fake innocence and calm, and red to explore her passion, fury and sexuality. After he kills her mom and later going to a dance presentation to finally make her dream come true, Pearl uses a red dress from her mother, representing both how the matriach figure is going to follow her everywhere but also how she wants to be recognized. Pearl fails in her test and even imagine her mom as a judge, showing the audience that her, even dead will be a torment to Pearl's life. In the end, Pearl accept her life in the farm and feel bad for her mom, finally recognizing that all she wanting was her good, and at the end is what Pearl wish too. So Pearl uses her mother's lessons to stay safe in the farm, ending the story kinda bittersweet about the events of the movie, so marked by blood and passion.
A few other red dresses can be a great addition
1. Hero- worn by Maggie Cheung during the sword fight with Zhang ziyi
2. Pretty Woman- red dress worn by julia roberts
3. funny face- worn by Audrey Hepburn
4. Death becomes her- worn by goldie hawn
5. Who Framed Roger Rabbit -worn by jessica rabbit
2. In the mood for love- Red Chipao worn by Maggie Cheung
Immediately thought of Maggie Cheung’s wardrobes as well!!! Audrey Hepburn’s red look from Charade is fantastic as well. All just stunning
HERO!! of course! I'll add the red dress on Francesca the singer on "Ghost ship" movie. That red dress was lust and evil.
I remember as a kid being in awe of some of Curella’s outfits during the second movie especially the red one, also I won’t be surprised if in universe she designed it herself based on her ancestor's portrait or maybe another gown owned by said ancestor.
I unfortunately don’t have a recommendation for orange but I do for blue and green. For blue Cinderella’s live action ball gown and for green any of her step mother’s green dresses.
Also if you ever do an animation version of this list may I recommend Isabella’s what else can do dress for blue and Pepa’s dress for yellow from Encanto?
I loved Last Holiday. It made me feel so special seeing her look so beautiful. I had never seen that before so I just love that movie 😭💕💕
The red dress Okoye wears during a car chase/fight scene in Black Panther should have been included it was very unique and quite empowering to see a woman absolutely kick ass while still looking feminine and glamorous.
this was absolutely incredible!! and on an overarching note, as a college student with a STEM major and minor, your videos that go into analysis of fashion in media make me so happy as it allows me to indulge my other passions!! never bored by your content 🫶
I was DELIGHTED that you included that dress from Romeo and Juliet. That movie came out when I was in 8th grade, and I LOVED the costumes, especially that red dress!
Scarlet O'Hara's looks are so dreamy and refined probably the best film wardrobe of all time. Marilyn and Jane's showgirl red dress in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes are iconic. Love Cruella's red dress too.
Shoshanna is one of my all-time favorite characters
Wish you guys would make one of this lists for videogame characters iconic looks. Bella Goth would fit perfectly in this video
The opera dress from Pretty Woman was surprising by it's absence as was Monroe's how to marry a millionaire. To a slightly lesser extent Audrey Hepburn in funny face. (Though suspect we'll see her in black).
Sadie frost has some amazing costumes in Dracula with her consummation scene orange dress (not actually a good dress but perfect in situ) and the white bridal death scene concoction. La reine margot has a fabulously impactful white dress too. The seven year itch being the Most iconic.
I recommend Orlando for blue, bright star for pink and Marie Antoinette in general.
Blair’s Oscar de La Renta red dress, was also iconic!
You mean the one at the train station right, that is supposedly orange, looked red on camera
Her wedding dress deserves a mention in blue
I cant say whether its iconic from a dressmaking/costume design pov, but Satines red dress in Moulin Rouge will always be a personal favorite! Its the first that comes to mind when I think of red dresses in film
1. Jodi’s last dance in Center Stage. The red ballet dress embodied flourishing her full potential and her love of dancing. 2. Jessica Rabbit 💋
A video talking about all of padmes outfits would be amazing ALSO a whole video talking about every one of glen close's cruella outfits would be amazing too
So many beautiful dresses, and so many great movies. The Dressmaker is fantastic
The best orange dress is Lorelai's one from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Once I saw her walking towards the table with her matching chiffon scarf it was over for me, nothing could ever hold a candle to that moment!
Tale of tales...the costumes in that movie were so lovely, even the men's shirts were exquisite. The red blanket that the dyer wore after becoming young again in that was even more striking.
I LOVE that you mentioned Queen Latifah's red dress in last holiday, I love that dress, love that movie.
I've always love Padme's costumes, especially the rainbow-like one she wears on the balcony during her time with Annikin.
Thank you for putting in Rose’s red dress from Titanic I am obsessed with it and I don’t think it gets enough love.. and omg the shoes that she wears with it!!
My favorite cinematic fashion are Cruella and the baroness’s dresses from Cruella and all Padmé’s costumes
Rizzo's Dress in Grease when she comes to the Dance should have made the list. A lot of symbolism in the color and style of that dress for what was set in the 50's.. it deserves on the list.
The suit and hat from the first appearance of Rose in Titanic is one of my favourite looks in cinema forever, It made me fall in love with costume design and fashion!
I’ve always though of Buttercup’s dress as orange. It’s interesting how people perceive colors differently
It’s interesting that I think of the white dress in Clueless after the yellow outfit. I totally forgot about the red dress even though it was on promotional materials. That might just be me, lol.
When I think of iconic red dresses, Julia Roberts’ dress in Pretty Woman, and amusingly enough Jessica Rabbit’s dress, which probably shouldn’t count since that’s a cartoon. I think most of this were great choices and they’re all well defended, though. More than I remembered off the top of my head!
I would love if you did a video talking about Padme's looks. As a Star Wars nerd I would love to here from the perspective of a fashion lovers how good the costumes are. Because even though I am strictly a T-shirt and jeans only girl I love the costumes particularly in the Prequels. I would also just love a series where you talk about the costume design for all Star Wars not just the Prequels. I wish you had mentioned Katniss's dress from the first Hunger Games movie. Though she does have some great dresses in other colors too.

So many of these red dresses were worn for their character's turning point moment! Wonderful video Tessa, and I'm happy to know the colors are coming in this long form video essay format. 🫀
For orange, the only one I can think of is Marilyn Monroe's in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes 🧡 so flattering so gorgeous
I haven’t seen Dracula (this really makes me want to) but my first thought seeing those leafy greens with plant emblems was that she was alive. That’s so cool
Yes! Last Holiday. I'm honestly crying. Thank you for recognizing this film and gorgeous red dress!
Omg PLEASE do a ranking video of all of Padme's outfits. I swear it would go viral and also just bring us all infinite joy 🥹
