Just a short while ago, Milla Jovovich posted these Twitter pics from the first fittings of her The Three Musketeers costumes. They’re grainy, but still provide a worthwhile peep at the work in progress: Milla Jovovich (tweet): ‘Quite a collar on that chick! Lol! Its like a kick ass “midsummer nights dream”!’ This billionth film version of Alexandre Dumas’ The Three Musketeers is directed by Paul W. S. Anderson (incidentally Jovovich’s husband). We would also love to tell you who the costume designer is, but we don’t actually know. So if anyone can help us out, please do. Milla Jovovich: ‘Here’s the canvas sample 4 the dress! Incredible right?! That’s…

The most memorable musical number ever captured on film, and Ginger Rogers’ dress contributes to this greatly.

It’s grim by the coast. A trailer for 1960s set Brighton Rock has arrived online. Though George Clooney is excellent, The American fails to hit the emotional notes expected.

MINOR SPOILERS There are already lots of good interviews with Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017) costume designer Michael Kaplan on the internet (we recommend this one in particular), so for Clothes on Film we kept it brief and fresh. We caught up with Kaplan, who is also responsible for Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015), Star Trek (2009), Fight Club (1999) and Blade Runner (1982), for a little chat about what’s new for episode 8 of the ever evolving space saga. Clothes on Film: Let’s kick off by asking you about the best new costume in the film, the Elite Praetorian Guard… Michael Kaplan: They are my favourite costumes……

Stars of The Lovely Bones, Michael Imperioli, Susan Sarandon and Saoirse Ronan meet Prince Charles. No Clothes on Film wasn’t invited, but we have got some photos.

Chances are you have not seen Snowpiercer yet due to its limited availability and release fiasco. If so, skip this interview and watch the film first. Go in clean, because Snowpiercer really is as good as everyone’s telling you. Based on the French graphic novel Le Transperceneige, it is essentially a dark (often literally) sci-fi thriller about a perpetual motion train carrying the last remnants of society after a global ice age. Themes of cruelty, disparity and sacrifice abound, and strong, sometimes horrific visual references bombard the screen. The exceptional costume design by Catherine George ties all this together in a way that is readable and indicative, yet never threatens……

The votes have been counted, the prizes dished out… Here’s our round-up of the big three costume design award nominations. By no means intended as an exhaustive list, Clothes on Film ponder an overview of 2011 in costume. The most exquisite fashion promo ever made.

Stone slacks, leather cardigan, pale denim – who wouldn’t want to dress like Alan Partridge? This may be dad brand clothing, but it announces you as the most confident man in the room. Driving gloves? That’s nothing. Try removing your coat and jacket then leaving the driving gloves until last. That takes guts, or failing that a complete lack of personal awareness. In other words it takes a Partridge. Steve Coogan co-created and has played sports-journalist-turned-chat-show-host-turned-DJ Alan Partridge on and off for 22 years. Nothing his character wears is random. For costume designer Julian Day (Berberian Sound Studio, Rush), working alongside perfectionist Coogan on Alpha Papa must have been a……
