Favourite "costume" Movies

Let's share movies that have droolworthy costumes. Obscure is good!

Here is one of mine

Angels and Insects (1995)
High Victorian style, often in vibrant colours and rich with symbolism.

I love that costume so much. Eyes in the wings? Yes please!

Those wings are incredable- wonderful shape!

Not obscure at all but Sherlock Holmes had lots of great costumes! 8D

And Alice in Wonderland.

Hurr. I don't watch enough movies, let alone obscure ones to say anything more. xD

Bright Star-made all the more awesome by the fact that the character made her own clothes.

Tails, when you cosplay the Alien, I will hug you and never release you. ever. You'll have to go through life with a Thornback clinging to your back.

Just warning you in advance.

Repo! The Genetic Opera. Oh man, Repo... I want to cosplay Graverobber someday, definitely, but his outfit is just the icing on a delicious, cyber/bio-punk cake.

By Olli. 27/05/10, 03:10 am

Moulin Rouge and The Rocky Horror Picture Show are my main ones ^^

Phantom of the Opera. It's set in the 1900's France, almost entirely inside an opera theatre where costuming happens all the time, and then there is a masquerade ball as well!!

*goes off humming "Music of the Night"*

I would add one that is the Reason for the Lack of Beads in the World right now, but it happens to be the movie that my SSAC is from....lol

~~(Zydrate comes in a little glass vial)~~ When you do I will stalk you. STALK YOU.
But yes, Repo! The Genetic Opera. And Moulin Rouge. And LOTR.

To add the obvious new one, Prince of Persia.

Oh man, so much neat stuff in that, so many new prop and costume ideas...

@Belakor-- Oh god yes. I like the PoP game outfits more (I want to cosplay Two Thrones Prince someday, but I don't think I'm manly enough), but from the trailers the movies look amazing too. <3

@noodles-- Oh my god someone that knows Repo I think I love you. <3
