I've a photographic memory, but alas, a fairly selective and not highly productive one. It is mostly a textile- and clothing-related gift. In last weekend's Starz' Camelot viewing frenzy, I took note of costumes and immediately recognized this one. In Camelot, Guinevere's cousin Bridget wears this orange gown with organza sleeves, decorated with gold banding. That very same dress is worn in First Knight by the luminous and beautiful Julia Ormond as Guinevere.
I included the back view because her hair is so swoon-worthy. Could she BE any prettier?
WOW! you do have a great memory!
ReplyDeletebeautiful dress!!
ReplyDeleteThat is quite a gift... and I remember having amazing hair envy when I watched First Knight!
ReplyDeleteAh, to have locks like that! I had to smile at your highly specialized selective memory! *winks* I'm like that too about certain things... especially 'Treasures' I adore, I have Total Recall about THOSE kinds of things that I'm passionate about... yet I have trouble remembering what I did with the car keys... go figure!? *LOL*
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and admiring my Vintage Articulated Hand... I'm still longing for the partner to it... I met the Vendor while my Brother was in Town & when she knew I'd purchased the Left Hand she discreetly hid the price tag on the Right Hand so that most peeps might conclude it is simply a display item... nice of her I thought, so I'm HOPING that works so I can save up and get it before someone else snags it?! *Smiles*
Dawn... The Bohemian
I agree, love her hair! New reader, came over from Hopalong Hollow. Near us in Arkansas they are building a medieval castle http://www.ozarkmedievalfortress.com/, I blogged about it last year, haven't visited yet though. Come visit me at Granny Mountain in the Ozarks...
ReplyDeletejoy c.
Everything about her is perfection!
ReplyDeleteMamabeaks - the memory, unfortunately, extends to bad things too.
ReplyDeleteSt. Ainolopa - I agree and they both wear it well.
Valerianna - me too - it seemed to grow as the movie progressed:)
ReplyDeleteBohemian - Me too - I cannot remember numbers at all. I love your phrases; "Total Recall" is perfect. Hope you get the other hand!
Joycee - It is divine! Look forward to your blog.
Jno - have you finished Camelot? I bought the soundtrack which is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteOh My Gosh! You are right about the hair. My hair is that long, I think I shall give it a try, maybe I can wear the dress this time! Although I could never hold a candle to either of those ladies... not even a small flicker.
ReplyDeleteJerri - You are every bit as lovely! Hope you'll share images of your braiding experiments.
ReplyDeleteSorry Jeri, I gave you an extra "r" in your name:(
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful dress and I love the colouir.As for her hair - imagine having enough hair to create that wonderful style!
ReplyDeleteRowan - that would be a difficult color for many to wear, but perfect on a brunette, I think. My hair is probably long enough, but certainly not that thick! Hers is very impressive.
ReplyDeleteYou have a good eye! That's a lovely dress, and she looks gorgeous in it. (Though she would look amazing in a burlap sack.) That hair is a work of art!
ReplyDeleteLynn - Right you are - she wears less-than-finery in movie and manages to look stunning:)
