One Dress a Day Challenge
June: Weddings
Cold Comfort Farm / Kate Beckinsale as Flora Poste and Sheila Burrell as Ada Doom
These are the outfits Flora and Ada wear to the wedding of Reuben Starkadder, Flora's cousin and Ada's ... grandson, I think, or maybe grandnephew? Both follow the pattern of a white dress with black hat, similar to the costume worn by Bette Davis as Mrs. Van Schuyler in the 1978 Death on the Nile.
Flora is very up-to-date 1930s, with an interesting sort of built-in scarf at the neckline of her dress. Ada Doom is more throwback-Edwardian in style, with some collar jewelry and a fur shoulder wrap.
