The iconic little black dress in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" or the epic outfits of Wes Anderson's heroes - we know all these images as well as the stories themselves. We admire them, quote and recreate them. But why are they remembered and what role did they play in the success of the pictures? The book by the famous journalist and fashion analyst Christopher Laverty is a real encyclopedia, in which he explores the entire cinematography of the XX century, from the iconic outfit of Judy Garland in the movie "The Wizard of Oz" to the image of Olga Kurylenko in "Quantum of Mercy". In his book Laverty talks about the contribution of famous designers in popular screen adaptations, introduces us to such legendary tandems as Martin Scorsese and Jean-Paul Gaultier, Woody Allen and Ralph Lauren. Reveals unknown details of the cinematographic process, explaining why Leonardo DiCaprio insisted on suits from Armani, and what secret meaning they carry in "The Wolf of Wall Street". With the help of hundreds of illustrations and archival photos, Christopher Laverty offers a look at the history of fashion through the unfamiliar but fascinating prism of the "costume in the movie".
