DFD Festival: Freifrau von KÖ x Filmmuseum

The state capital celebrates fashion with the Düsseldorf Fashion Days. At the Film Museum, together with Freifrau von Kö, we take a look back - at history and film history using costumes that transport the actors and actresses to a different time, culture and society for their roles.

While last year's focus was on the cult of the star (with four costumes of female Hollywood stars), this year Freifrau von Kö is devoting herself to so-called "period pieces", modern - or long since historical - historical interpretations of fashion in film with cuts, fabrics and extensive fittings.

Whether historical spectacles, Victorian love dramas or, of course, musicals from Hollywood's Golden Age, the Freifrau takes us on a journey of costume design styled by designers, sometimes ambitiously authentic, sometimes wacky! Afterwards, there is a contemporary example of modern staging of historical fashion in film: Sofia Coppola invites us to Versailles in "MARIE ANTOINETTE" (with the original soundtrack) in a fashion spectacle about a princess shopping trip, candied madness and a dramatic-tragic finale with iconic, Oscar-winning costumes by Milena Canonero!
