Period Movies

They are somewhat accurate...just interpreted in a 1930s way

Taken from the movie-s wiki.

"The movie had thousands of costumes and lavish set designs. Costume designer Gilbert Adrian visited France and Austria in 1937 researching the period. He stated that the 18th century was the most opulent in Fashion history and the costumes would reflect this. Although much artistic licence was taken, He studied the paintings of Marie Antoinette, even using a microscope on them so that the embroidery and fabric could be identical. Fabrics were specially woven and embroidered with stitches sometimes too fine to be seen with the naked eye.

The attention to detail was extreme, from the framework to hair. Some gowns became extremely heavy due to the amount of embroidery, flounces and precious stones used.Ms. Shearer's gowns alone had the combined weight of over 1,768 pounds, the heaviest being the wedding dress. Originally slated to be shot in color, many of the gowns were specially dyed. The fur trim on one of Ms. Shearer's capes was therefore sent out to be dyed the exact shade of her eyes."
