West Side Story: Juliet and Maria's dress

1 comment:

  1. These two dresses are the dresses of Maria and Juliet. Notice how they are both white,which signifies purity, as a young women, however Maria's has a ribbon of red running round her waist,which could signify passion and love. Both dresses are adapted according to the time period: Maria's dress has the typical A-line shape, just like most of the dresses in the 50s, whereas Juliet's is almost like a nighty, with gold embroidery detailing the top of the dress. Both dresses fit to the body well, and still have a flow to it, when they move about, enhancing the serenity of their movement.
