Apparently her good looks did not go unnoticed by Hitchcock. He developed a deep fascination with Tippi but when she did not return his feelings, Hitchcock decided to let the birds do the talking for him. Instead of using mechanical birds during the attack scenes, Hitchcock used live birds that scratched up Tippi to the point that filming had to be postponed. Quite a naughty move by Mr. Hitchcock.

The Look: Pencil Skirts. Suit jackets. Gloves. Delicate heels. Coiffed hair. Sophistication.

As is this year's Dior Pre-Fall collection by John Galliano.

For the dark side of this classic film, the black, charcoal and shots of red are the perfect color choices.
Alexander McQueen brings the drama in this blood red feathered gown from Fall 2008.

The Look: Pencil Skirts. Suit jackets. Gloves. Delicate heels. Coiffed hair. Sophistication.




Rather than remain restricted to the 1960s time period when thinking about The Birds, how about a more fantastical approach.

ReplyDeleteAlexander McQueen's Fall 2005 actually reminds me slightly of the ensembles donned on Mad Men, as well. Obviously looks crafted before the time. J'adore the way this post went to the birds - I think I need some feather-embellished accessories myself! :)
ReplyDeleteLove these looks - especially the pencil skirts. Have a happy weekend, xv.
