TSC Inspiration - A Dangerous Method

Every so often, a movie comes along with costumes that steal my attention.  Recently, we rented A Dangerous Method from Netflix.  It's a period film based upon a time in the lives of Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, and Sabina Spielrein.  I studied psychology in college so, the topic held a bit of interest for me.  I won't say another word on the movie itself save for the wardrobe. The dresses caught my eye immediately and I found myself eyeing the details of the garments frequently throughout the movie.


I won't be creating any of these dresses for That's Sew Cinematic but, I'm definitely filing them away for future reference.  Since I know you all have an eye for detail and fawn over lace and dreamy cotton as much as myself, I knew I just had to share a few shots with you. Enjoy :-)

Billowy bodice with lace sewn on a bias, coat with pleated shoulders

Exquisitely dressed extras ;-)
I love the lace shoulders on the young girl in front.

More well-dressed extras, all ladies with high lace collars and gentleman in traditional black and white for dinner.

Do you see a theme yet?  White + lace = oh so pretty!

Look at all of that lovely lace - so delicate!

Another lovely blouse with long walking skirt

Gorgeous details on mother, baby, and carriage.

Beautiful white dress with lace inserted in the bodice and sleeves., pintucks and gathers accent the skirt.
(I read Keira liked this one so much, she kept it!)
Notice also her embroidered bag and sheer hat.

That is all.  You may now wipe up the drool and resume your daily activities.  (If you do use any of these garments as inspiration, used similar details in any of your projects, I'd love to see!)

Happy sewing! x
