"The Young Victoria" Costumes

If you are a movie aficionado and view costumes as "art" and the costume designer as the "artist", then you are certain to appreciate the sumptuous style of Sandy Powell who won an Oscar for Costume Design at the recent 2010 Academy Awards. Her costumes for The Young Victoria locate the stage for this period drama and made a spellbinding focal mark that was at once fresh and historically accurate. Julian Fellowes, writer of the script, says, "What is so extraordinary about her employment in the film is that she has reinvented the Victorian gaze without being unfaithful to it".
