Second and final part in our sartorial analysis of Sherlock Holmes (2009), complete with insight from costume designer Jenny Beavan. Excited by the mystery of Lord Blackwood’s apparent ‘resurrection’, Holmes actually makes a genuine effort to appear neat for once (the restaurant date does not count as he was prompted).

Leave a Trackback (URL). Starring: Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Michael Keaton (voices) Directed By: Lee Unkrich One of the funniest scenes in Toy Story 3 involves new character Ken. Moreover it actually involves Barbie disguised as Ken. The joke comes from the fact that Ken’s clothes are overtly feminine in style, so much so that when Barbie’s stilettos are revealed beneath her…
