Dressed By Angels: Here's an exhibition that may interest some of you.
Angels have made a trawl through their stock to present a 'best of ' for
their exhibition 'Dressed By Angels. Included are Cushing's Sherlock
Holmes costume from Hammer's Hound of the Baskervilles' and a replica of
Lee's costume from 'Dracula Has Risen From The Grave'. Both look great,
plus there's some tv Doctor who costumes too!
The exhibition held it's grand opening on October 1st. The guests included Chairman of Angels Tim Angel, Director Sir Alan Parker,
Director and Actor John Landis, Fashion Photographer Tim Walker as well
as Lady Gitte Lee, Su Pollard, and June Hudson.
Just one thing puzzles
me. Both Baskervilles and Risen were dressed by the company Bermans who
actually MADE the costumes too. Angels bought out Bermans in 1992. So,
what exactly is the connection between Angels and these and many of the
films that were also dressed by Bermans being celebrated here? Also Angels claimed to have
found Cushing fur collared overcoat from Dracula a few years ago, a long
with David Peel's cloak...no sign of these at the exhibition, two items
I would have loved to have seen.
