Les parapluies de Cherbourg

I finished my MA in Fashion & Film in December at the London College of Fashion and so thought it was only appropriate that I share some of my favourite 'fashion moments' in film.

The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964)
This french new wave musical from Jacques Demy, stars the beautiful Catherine Deneuve as a Umbrella shop girl whom falls inlove with mechanic Guy, however Guy is forced to go to war, leaving Genevieve alone and pregnant.
It's tragic, beautiful and pastel infused. I challenge you not to want to put your hair up, don a trench coat and ribbon in your hair and run around crying singing 'J'taimeeeeee'







The Umbrellas of Cherbourg are coming to London's westend and I couldn't be more excited, I shall be there front and centre weeping softly into my pink hair ribbon.




Also I came across this picture of a brunette Catherine.



How pretty?
