The way the characters dress is very much in accordance with the fact that Juliet of the Spirits is considered a surrealist film. Their appearances ooze with flamboyance and the extravagant hats beat even those at Royal Ascot. Fellini was a huge perfectionist, so it's not unusual that he understood the characters' clothes as another outlet to express his magic ideas.

Gorgeous photos! And these are stunning costumes. Incredible, actually. I will definitely have to check this movie out!
I was trying to figure out the material for the woman's top is for the fourth picture!
This looks like a wonderful film to watch. Once again, thank you for opening a world that is unknown to me :)

I've only ever heard of Fellini's legacy on film, but I never heard of the costume design being so ... extravagant! It's amazing, those hats are like vessels worn during the Antoinette times! I love the flower swing and bare-backed blonde lady pictures.
