I just wrote about this on my blog, but thought that the Sew Retro readers might be interested in this too.
However, over a year ago, I was reading through the archives of The Costumer’s Guide (a fabulous site on film costuming) and read about the dress. The page on the dress includes detailed closeups of the dress after it was placed on display and anything else you might want to know about the choice of that particular shade of green to any details on Cee’s other costumes is there or a link is provided to other sources. One of those links was to a great post on the creation and maintenance of the many dresses used in the film at Sunday Couture. It detailed how delicate the original dresses were because of their laser cut detail work.

Gemma,
Yes, yes, yes! Expect an email from me! I'll put together a post about the real versus the cinematic, ok? From what I can see in your profile pic, it looks fantastic on you!
I adore this dress! Thanks for such an informative post.
Sarah 🙂
Your dress is beautiful!
yes, this dress was really awesome! do you check out the vintage pattern lending library? I think it's vpll.org they have some extraoridanary vintage patterns there!
That dress does look quite good for a wedding really, that is very suprising. I think it is a very bold choice of clothing. I actually think it looks better as the wedding dress than it does on Knightly.
These are really beautiful dresses.The silk tallit becomes in fashion these days as they look very attractive and beautiful.
would love some advice on where to go or look to get a dress made or purchase? Your wedding day must of been perfect in your dream dress !
