Rosemary's Baby



Rosemary's baby is another great film with fantastic styling.  I love the classic films because they really emulate the styling of the era they were created in.  This film actually references the late, great Vidal Sassoon, who at the time was becoming increasingly popular.  Although the film has a twisted, psychotic storyline there is still a great element of style throughout the production.



Rosemary and Guy Woodhouse move into an apartment in a building with a bad reputation. They discover that their neighbours are a very friendly elderly couple named Roman and Minnie Castevet, and Guy begins to spend a lot of time with them. Strange things start to happen: a woman Rosemary meets in the laundry dies a mysterious death, Rosemary has strange dreams and hears strange noises and Guy becomes remote and distant. Then Rosemary falls pregnant and begins to suspect that her neighbours have special plans for her child.






The style that is current in fashion at the moment is very reminiscent of the 1960's.  Fashion houses such as Louis Vuitton are all over it on there catwalk shows.  I definitely want to bring some of this style into my interpretation of the chosen Gothic Urban Legend.
