PRITHEE AND WELL MET RÓMEÓ ÉS JÚLIA NATION‼️ does anybody have clear images of the costumes esp those from the ball? i love love love them tho don’t have any clear pics myself <\3
Hey, I might be able to help! As far as the ball scene goes, here are a handful of the pictures I have saved where the costume details are at least somewhat discernible:
Romeo's shirt and scarf
Julia's ballgown, and Romeo's outfit side view
Tybalt's coat, embroidered waistcoat and locket
The Nurse's swirl-pattern robe (sorry for the awful quality of this one)
I don't have any high-quality pictures of what Mercutio and Benvolio wear, unfortunately, but I did manage this screencap from the Szeged proshot:
Mercutio wears a red-and-beige blazer over his outfit from Lehetsz Király, and Benvolio wears his usual black sleeveless thing, except at the ball it has added tied-on black leather sleeves.
If there is a certain costume you need a detail photo of, it may be worth looking at backstage pictures and/or promotional material as the lighting generally shows the details much better than on stage.
Is there a particular character whose wardrobe you're interested in? My RésJ photo folder is enormous so if you have a more specific request I may be able to offer additional info :)
MY GOODNESS!!! THIS IS SO SO SO AMAZING AND HELPFUL!!! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH 😭😭😭 i was having a particularly hard time with tybalt’s waist coat so this is massive help:’)
if not much too ask, any reference photo of benvolio, mercutio, tybalt, juliet or romeo!! any of them and any photo would be so much help!!
Here are the clearest other photos I have of it (one of my favourite costume pieces in this show!):
The rest of the main characters under the cut because this got super long and image-heavy :)
Romeo for the most part wears either a white or black geometric eyelet-embroidered shirt, with black leather trousers. This is best seen in backstage photos with good lighting (+bonus Lady Montague bodice!):
That second one also shows one of Mercutio's main outfits - as far as I'm aware that particular red shirt only makes an appearance in Verona, but the jacket turns up later in the first act during Szép és Csúnya.
Here's a screencap of the Szeged DVD which shows Mercutio's other main wardrobe pieces - white shirt, shell bead necklace and a red patent leather jacket. Romeo's white embroidered shirt is also visible here :)
As for Benvolio, he wears only two significantly different outfits throughout the entire show, which look more-or-less like this:
The second image shows the aforementioned tie-on sleeves. This picture is from Hogy Mondjam El, but he wears the same top earlier at the ball.
I have woefully few images of Julia's costumes aside from the red dress - she wears so much white, which doesn't photograph well on stage. The best I can do of the wedding dress is this screencap from the premiere:
That same dress can also be seen - admittedly not in much detail - in this curtain call picture, where you can also see the coat that Tybalt wears during the opening scene and Verona:
And you've already got the pictures of the costumes worn at the ball :) Admittedly those are some of my favourites, especially the ensemble costumes. It's a very cohesive visual impact with all of the Capulet household dressed in various patterns of black-and-white, which also really makes the colourful Montague 'imposters' stand out.
In general, it's worth noting that the costumes changed slightly around 2006, and were then significantly overhauled with the different cast in 2012/13-ish (I say -ish because I'm relying on my memory here, I can't find an online source from the Operett of specifically when this happened). I have assumed for the sake of this post that you're after references for the costumes worn by the original cast in the production's premiere run.
Anyway, I'm so happy my RésJ photo archive has been put to good use! Always glad to be able to help!
