I'd be lying if I said I didnt miss this series. So many people hate the color green. I think its so beautiful.
I love it, I had a green prom dress and ball gown dress.
How can someone hate green? It's my favourite colour😅😍
Green is the color of life and love it needs more positive credit
PEOPLE HATE GREEN?!?!?!?
I hate certain greens ahaha. Lime green specifically.
That green dress from atonement lives in my head rent free.
I’ve spent so many years trying to find a dress similar to it.
so trueeee
Yes. It's AMAZING!
i think about it all the time ughh
I bought a Bebe lookalike dress for my senior prom. I still have it and love it to death. Still not as gorgeous as the one in the film.
Cinderella (2015) genuinely has some of my favorite costumes... ever. the stepmother's wardrobe is to die for.
SAME!! THE COSTUMES ARE ALSO ONE OF FAVORITES EVER! 🤩✨😍
ABSOLUTELY!!!!
To me they are too much fantasy meaning lack of real time period while also being set in our world and going for extremely rich looks that are overdesigned. Like butterflies on Cinderellas dress might have meaning but are too much
The green dress Cate Blanchett wore in that film was GORGEOUS!!
We're all here for the atonement dress aren't we?
No, I'm here for Scarlett
@@shirazsharivar8536 good choice also✨ she's stunning
💯🙌
YEEAAHHHH 😩😩
No, I'm here for Devdas.
The green sari from Devdas is just iconic. The way she reveals it in the dance sequence will never fail to wow me. It's truly one of the best green dresses in the history of cinema. 💚
It's not a sari, but yes, it's absolutely iconic.
@@SS-mk2yp Thanks for correcting me! I believe it's called a 'lehenga,' if I'm not mistaken.
It's called anarkali, she mentions it in the video.
@crimsonred9280 It's actually an anarkali suit! An anarkali is one long piece on top, kind of like a dress, that flairs out (much like a lehenga) with pants (kind of like leggings). A lehenga is a top and a skirt, two separate pieces. A sari is one long piece of fabric, pleated and draped.
Its called ANARKALI SUIT [it is not indian style but brought to india from mughals - persian empires 🙌]
I’ve made Scarlett’s green dress, and let me tell you, it’s a trip and a half. Everything is three layers: a silk tissue taffeta lining layer, a white silk organza and the printed organza on top. Which means the 300 inch circumference of the skirt turns into almost 900 inches to hem. And those ruffles! Over 1200 buttonholes. So much work, and such an iconic dress. I love wearing it
I wanna see!
I was alive when “Went With The Wind” aired and I have NEVER forgotten that dress or her one-liner that it was just “something she saw in a window.” 😂
Me too; I just remember me & my dad, who watched the show together every week, howling with laughter.
I was watching when she walked down the stairs. The costumer for The Carol Burnett Show made loads of perfect for the skit dresses.
☠☠☠
I love that these videos always include some dresses that aren't American/European. The Indian ensamble was especially breathtaking.
Green is always such a standout in film! No mater what it makes a statement when done right
I know this is just film but I feel like Alicent Hightowers green dress when she declaires war in house of the dragon deserves an honourable mention
I THOUGHT ABOUT THIS AND YES IT WAS SUCH AN IMPORTANT MOMENT FOR ALICENT PLUS SHE LOOKED GORG
That was such a cute dress
that dress was so ugly though
I was thinking about that first green dress too.
YES!!
I'm an Indian Bengali, and very very grateful for the mention of Devdas in the video. Thank you so much. You did a great job with the pronunciations too.
you showed it in the montage in the beginning but layla's homecoming dress from sky high has lived rent free in my mind for years
same, I love it

yesss
I love that this dropped the same day as Penelope's emerald dress on Bridgerton!
In Clue: The Movie, Ms. Scarlet has a dark green dress that almost looks black in some shots. It's quintessential 80's, with the off shoulder straps and sheetheart neckline (even though the film is set in the 50's). I don't think it necessarily has historical significance or left a lasting impression on costuming as a whole. But I love it. I think Leslie Ann Warren looks fabulous and dark green is a color that always catches my eye.
I completely adore dark green too
I was dying to hear your take on Scarlet O'Hara's green dress, I'm totally obsessed with Gone With The Wind costume design
Gone with the wind is my all time favorite movie
@@HeatherCheddarZinteresting …
Arwen's lime dress is perfect❤
Lord of the Rings dresses are so gorgeous anyway, how the elven couture was designed based on ancient, medieval and art deco styles. And the green dress was made to symbolize spring and suited Tyler so well
I always loved Allie's green dress from Burlesque when she sings Bound to You. It's such a beautiful dress.
Grace Kelly's Green and white dress from Rear Window (1956)
Tiana's green lily pad wedding gown from The Princess and the frog (2009)
Fiona's green dress from Sherk (2001)
Belle's green dress from Beauty and the beast (1992)
Lady Tramine's dark green ball gown from Cinderella (2015)
Lady Tramine's introduction dress from Cinderella (2015)
Sid Sharice's green dress from Singing in the rain (1952)
Nakia's Green Casino dress from The Black Panther (2019)
Omg rear window the dress is everything 💕
Fiona's dress for sure- I completely didnt consider it. I love that the texture seems velvety and the slim medievil fit with gold trim is just chefs kiss! I always forget to consider animation design too!
Sid Charice, no question
One more...
Mabel Nesbitt's green party dress from Gosford Park (2001)
slight correction - cyd charisse.
One my favorites is the pale green dress Arwen wears at the end of Return of the King, during the wedding/coronation. She’s like spring incarnate. Absolutely beautiful 💜
I knew Gone With the Wind and Atonement would be in here, but I was SOOOO happy to see The Handmaiden! Also, god, I could watch every video in the Best Dresses series a million times over
Scarlett O Hara definitely has *THEE MOST* iconic green dresses (and dresses in general) in cinematic history.
Vivien Leigh carried those pieces so wonderfully and whoever were the amazing and talented people behind in creating them should be acknowledged.
Knew just from the title that Chandramukhi’s green anarkali would make the list- Madhuri Dixit in Maar Dala has my whole heart 💚
Saaaame! Anytime I wear green and think what earrings to wear I think of that outfit and GOLD! Lol
Scarlet's green dress in untouchable, the way it moves, the fullness and delicate touches. Her whole wardrobe is the definition of iconic. Also redheads in green are sublime like Rita Hayworth in her dance number. That dress is beautiful.
That green dress on Christina In burlesque was perfection
Scarlett's green party dress will forever be my favorite. I've loved that dress since I was too young to like the movie!
A knight’s tale is one of my all time favorite movies. Jocelyn’s outfits are so iconic and she’s so beautiful.
I can’t wait for the pink episode! Giselle’s original outfit in enchanted, though animated, is my very favorite
Thank you for including world cinema dresses as well. You do your due research and really present the best of the best and the most iconic. Devdas' green dress is just simply iconic and unforgettable, and the little introduction with the novel was unexpected. You really put a lot of thought, effort and research into your videos. Have to be one of my favorite creators on the platform in regards to fashion.
I’m a green girl, and I will always love A Knight’s Tale. 💚 You just made my day.
Green dress fits Scarlett's personality so well
the devdas outfit 😭😭 so beautiful
i had to pause this video to watch in the mood for love. her outfits are to cry for
I’ve ALWAYS wanted to wear Scarlett’s green dress. It’s so feminine, gentle, and elegant.
Burlesque is a soap opera movie and I love it so much, I'm glad the best outfit got highlighted
SHE CAME TO DELIVER AND DELIVER SHE HAS DONE!!!
AYE! SIX the Musical reference!! I was going to type it in the comments if you didn't bring it up. So thank you for saving me the time. :)
For anyone curious. The lyrics in SIX about Anne's sleeves go :
Why did I lose my head?
Well, my sleeves may be green...
But my lipstick's red
Indeed Scarlett O’Hara’s dress. The green brought out the green in Vivien Leigh’s green eyes
screaming i actually let out a yelp ive been waitingggg for the next in this series i even replied to one of your tweets asking for this one lolll
Green is a lovely color 💚💚
I’m so shocked that you didn’t talk about Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge because Simran’s costumes are amazing, especially her green dress she wears in India. Having watched it recently and did a school project on the movie it became one of my favorites and the costumes on the female lead is outstanding
Mee too, as much as I had loved the inclusion of Devdas in this video, not adding Simran's green outfit in DDLJ during the Mehendi ceremony was a huge miss. Hell, there are several green dresses which appeared in Bollywood that I can't think of right now, but played an important role in the movie
I'd be lying if I said I didn't run a quick though all the time stamps before watching the vid just you ensure Chandramukhi's Green dress made it to the list. I am so glad it did 😭💘
Cate Blanchette’s dress in Cinderella lives in my head 24/7 rent free
The Court Jester 1956 (starring Danny Kaye) had the MOST GLORIOUS dresses. Very theatrical, but GORGEOUS. There were several green dresses/outfits worn by the two main female characters (played by a beautiful young Angela Lansbury and Glynis Johns). If you like gorgeous medieval inspired dresses, I highly highly HIGHLY recommend watching it for that alone, though the humor still holds up too imo
madhuri performing in the song "maar dala" is a feast for the eyes. i love her elegant and beautiful style in that movie 💚
I absolutely love your best dress series. Don't stop. 🥰 Green is so beautiful 💚🍏
That Atonement dress has had me in a chokehold since I first saw the film lol. All the dresses are so beautiful though and the breakdown is so interesting. I love so many of the dresses mentioned in this list!
The Atonement dress is definitely my favorite green dress
Fiona's dress from Shrek is the most iconic green dress
Green is always a great and interesting color choice for costume design and fashion design.
💚💚💚
I love the green dress from the other Boleyn girl 🟢
I've always loved the costumes in Barbarella. I'm interested in what the approach is going to be if the rumoured Edgar Wright's remake with Sydney Sweeney happens, something similar to the original costumes would be great, we could do with another space-age revival influence in fashion.
I clicked on this so fast. I've been waiting for this series.Thank you.
i'm SOOOOO glad chandramukhi's anarkali from devdas was included here. it's such a magnificent example of costuming done right. i'll also never forget the reaction i had when i first saw it on screen while watching it with my family.
love seeing devdas on here!!
The Other Boleyn girl needs more attention! It's my favorite historical (heavily) fiction movie.
Came here for Atonement, was pleasantly surprised by the Devdas appreciation!
Not a fan of the story but the fashion and aesthetics of Devdas is timeless and majestic 💚
green is my favorite color! 💚💚 thank you!
Came for the green dresses, stayed for the variety of movies and the plot critiques.
So glad the dress from singing in the rain was mentioned. I remember being so enamored by her and the dress when I watched the movie as a kid
I've been waiting for this one THANK GOD
I thought the atonement dress was fine, up until I rewatched it, and now I love it.
Yes, I missed these videos. Love that you included dresses from Black Panther, 13 Going On 30, and Devdas, and while I don't particularly like Oz The Great And Powerful, I will admit the green dress in it is stunning.
As for your future blue dress video, some of the most memorable ones for me were the the gorgeous dresses from the 1980s Swann In Love, the musical Peau D'ane, White Christmas, Dreamgirls, 1954 Madam Du Barry, Umrao Jaan, House Of Flying Dragons, and of course the french Belle A La Bete.
Not me getting all invested in the plots of these movies I've never seen and getting heartbroken when the characters don't get happy endings just based on the summaries in this video. Thanks for the culturization lol
The first 1.24 minutes are a masterful summary of many of the best green dresses in cinematic history. Cyd Charisse in "Singing In The Rain" is a knock-out.
Thanks for including Cyd Charisse's green dress! I've always loved it, and Cyd was one of the best dancers of her time, and she had the longest legs in the business!
I just mentioned this to someone yesterday wondering what had happened to this series, so glad to see another addition to it! I love the color green 🌿🌳🍃
I recommend everyone watch all of Sanjay Leela's films. Extraordinary sets and costumers every damn time. Thank you so much for highlighting our beloved Bollywood
Green's one of my favourite colours, I feel like almost every shade is just so beautiful
I have a PhD in Cinema but I still learned a lot from you. Thank you. Well-done! Keep going!
Yessss I was STARVING for the next part of this series
You cannot possibly imagine how happy I was this morning when I saw this video had been posted! I really like your conversational videos, but your color series videos are probably some of my favourites. Keep up the good work, greetings from Spain!
The green dress in burlesque is definitely one of my faves! 💚
Not to be dramatic but if I could wear that emerald green silk atonement dress I would probably die 💚😍
Thank you for your implacable work! It’s so so so well documented ❤
Elizabeth Taylor's green dress in Cleopatra (which I saw in person on my birthday a few years ago). It's sooo freaking stunning 😍
Really not accurate with the cinched waist and neckline expecially, but it looks good
I would like to add to the list the pretty green frock Maureen O' Hara wears in "The Quiet Man" . She wears it in the scene when Mary Kate Danaher (O' Hara) is courted by Sean Thornton (John Wayne), ending with them getting caught in the rain in the ancient cemetery. The dress is a lovely 1950's representation of 1930's fashion & looks so beautiful with Maureen O'Hara's red hair & peaches & cream complexion. It is so quintessentially Irish that it could almost be made from shamrocks.
I absolutely *KNEW* Atonement was going to be on the list!
Omg I’ve been WAITING for this
Time to go watch in a mood for love. You have unknowingly convinced me to watch it.
Ughh yes I was looking for this video earlier and thought you had already made it! Of course I was looking for the atonement film, which I figured you had used in your “best dresses” series
I watched Carol Burnett come down the stairs in that curtain rod dress. It was hilarious! Carol was the funniest woman of the 70s. That Atonement dress is my all time favorite.
I’m cheering 🎉🎉for a new addition to the color series ❤❤
Green is my favourite colour and I've been waiting with bated breath for you to release this one! I was not disappointed :) So many gorgeous outfits. It's so hard to pick a favourite!
Love this series ❤
Always blown away by how much footage of costumes you’re able to find and use!
Ally’s green dress in Burlesque is one of my all time favorites!!
speaking of green dresses would you ever do a costume breakdown for House of the Dragon? would love to hear ur thoughts !!
I was about to throw hands when you said gone with the wind and the curtain dress wasn't immediately bought up 🤣🤣🤣 that is such a fantastic moment in the movie
watching this video and this series made me realise this channel played a big role in why I like costuming and fashion and clothes so much now. To the point where I'm actually doing costuming in university right now! (I'm doing theatre design so its set and costume to be exact but I digress) so idk if you'll see this but thank you moderngurlz
Green is my favorite color! Thank you for this!!! 💚
My favorite is by far the green dress in Burlesque. I will NEVER get over how stunning she looks in it.
FINALLY THE SERIES IS BACK!!! LOVE YALL FOR THIS😭🤍
I had cramps so painful I couldn't move or speak. I needed a video interesting enough to distract me from the pain, calming enough that the pace and tone didn't exacerbate, irritate, or overstimulate, and was long enough to get me through the worst of it till the meds kicked in. After trying a couple of other videos I landed on this one. I love analysis of fashion and styles from different eras, especially costumes and the color green was so calming to look at and your tone soothing and engaging. By the time it ended I was feeling significantly more comfortable. You saved me, thank you. Wonderful video can't wait to watch the rest of the series! You just got a brand-new subscriber 💙
Also just bought/made my first two green dresses in a very long time after committing to a red/blue color palate one of which is reminiscent of the notebook dresses but in more of a pastel green with tiny white and navy flowers, and the other a medieval fantasy dress I made for the Narnia faire. this video made me super excited to rock both!
Green is such a calm, beautiful color.
That burlesque green dress is one of my fav looks ever in cinema, so glad it got included!
I was waiting for a long time for this installment!
This is the best of all the dress color videos.
I want to watch allll these movies now.
Finally, i've been waiting for this video for a long time, can you make this kind of video but about wedding dresses too?
Other green dresses I like are the ones in House of Flying Daggers and the green Alice dress from Pan’s Labyrinth, and Mina’s green dress from Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
i love your movie recs!
