Starring: Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Mia Wasikowska Directed by: Tim Burton When it was first announced that Tim Burton planned to direct the latest adaptation of Lewis Carroll’s ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’, most moviegoers were rejoicing as it seemed to be a match made in heaven. Burton’s gothic outlook would likely be used to great effect, knowing too that he would inevitably bring Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter into the mix. Indeed what we expected with Burton’s version is what we’ve got. Though this is actually the main problem. The story focuses on 19-year-old Alice (Mia Wasikowska) who is faced with the unhappy prospect of marrying a stuck-up…

Just because it’s Friday, here are four glossy images from Tim Burton’s upcoming version of Alice in Wonderland. Beautiful costumes by Colleen Atwood. Anne Hathaway’s long white dress for the Snow Queen is a suitably dramatic piece. The pearl trim and heavy silk both scream wicked luxury. This is costume design at its most theatrical.

Though judging by the pin-sharp HD trailer and these lavishly realised one-sheets, it is set to be a sumptuous period piece in terms of costume design. For the thirties gangster look we should expect larger-than-life trends of the day: wider suit lapels, wider trousers,…

It’s been all go with award nomination announcements for costume design over the past two weeks. Here is our round-up of the big three: BAFTA, CDG and Oscar. First up the BAFTA (British Academy of Film & Television Arts) Film Awards: The Artist – Mark Bridges Hugo – Sandy Powell Jane Eyre – Michael O’Connor My Week with Marilyn – Jill Taylor Tinker, Tailor, Solider, Spy – Jacqueline Durran Perhaps the most surprising nomination, even though it shouldn’t be, is Jacqueline Durran for Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy.
