This past Sunday The King's Speech took home the highly coveted Best Picture at The Academy Awards. I took this as a sign that I should probably see it, being that I had not even heard of it until that point. Despite the fact that the first half the film is basically a Public Speaking 1001, I give the film two thumbs up. Amidst the dramatic tension and British accents (which I wish I had) came a bevy of great costume design, highlighting traditional British style. The movie showcases the three piece suit at its best, with timeless layering techniques. This came alongside a bevy of patterned bowties/neckties to die for. Costume designer, Jenny Beaven, did an amazing job.
See you next Monday!
