One Dress a Day Challenge

October: White Redux

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang / Sally Ann Howes as Truly Scrumptious

What's that, you say? A touch of black has crept into our white costumes? Oh, just ignore it. I'm sure it means nothing.

This movie is set somewhere between 1900 and 1910, but this costume really just suggests it without going for strict historical accuracy. I'm pretty sure boas like that were not for day wear, and just what is that thing on her head? Nevertheless, it's cute, and good for dancing in. Looking at this in comparison with a couple other costumes from around the same time, I'm getting the feeling that piping was a popular thing around the end of the 1960s.

Notice the faint polka dots on the bow on the bodice front!

One of the things I love about Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is that one second Truly and Potts absolutely frustrate each other and literally the next morning they're singing a duet about sweets, and her dad is grinning cheerfully with the two Potts children while they make a mess of his workshop. I love musicals.
