“Film…the most perfect visual medium for the exploitation
of fashion and beauty that ever existed”.

If you love fashion and movies and look for a magic experience in the world of elegance, perfection and history head to the Victoria and Albert museum, where it’s now shown the first Hollywood costumes exhibition in Europe. Sponsored by the bespoke jewellery brand Harry Winston, an impressive range of costumes, history, and emotions.

Behind the scenes of the movies that made the history in the American Cinema: Hitchcook with the green dress worn by Grace Kelly in Rear Window, The Black dress worn by Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, the Red dress worn by Vivien Leigh in Gone With the Wind a movie how won ten Oscars. A mix of old movies with movies that are making now the future Hollywood history: the Marie Antoniette movie with its gorgeous corpets and dresses, The Iron Lady movie, with the actress Meryl Streep.

    The lowest bidding moving company may not be the best
    home mover. Some strong riders will get the chainring adjusted to a 56T or even a 60T.

    Another reason to choose a major moving company is
    that they usually have affiliates located throughout
    the country and even around the world, which makes a
    van line service an even more desirable option if you are
    moving long distance.
