Cinderella The Exhibition. London. The Costumes, The Pumpkin and The Glass Slipper.

I couldn't pass the opportunity to go and see up close the costumes of the live action version of Cinderella so I booked my free ticket few weeks ago and went today to Leicester Square to see them. In the big tent that they built there were also some props from the film, including parts of the pumpkin/gold carriage and pieces of furniture of the house. The stand out pieces though were the magnificent costumes created by Sandy Powell, who has already won three Oscars (Shakespeare in Love, The Aviator, The Young Victoria), in collaboration with Swarovski who supplied thousands of crystals. I'm not going to describe the exhibition at all as the pictures do speak for themselves.
Non potevo farmi sfuggire l'opportunita' di andare a vedere da vicino i costumi di scena del fim di Cenerenetola, quindi ho prenotato il bilglietto gratutito qualche settimana fa online e stamattina sono stato a Leicester Square a Londra a vederli. Nella grande tensostruttura al centro della piazza c'erano anche alcuni oggetti di scena, tra cui la zucca/carrozza e parti dell'arredamento della casa. I pezzi forti comunque sono stati i meravigliosi abiti creati da Sandy Powell, vincitrice di tre oscar ( Shakespeare in Love, The Aviator e The Young Victoria), in collaborazione con Swarovski che ha messo a disposizione milgiaia di cristalli. Non mi dilungo in descrizioni ma lascio che siano le immagini a parlare.
