This weekend brings Jane Austen's beloved comedy, Emma, to the big screens. And along with it, a brand new obsession with costume since my recent Little Woman episode last month.
In celebration of the film
(which looks like it has been set inside a giant cream cake), my friend
Lucy and I decided to re-create some of the looks with dresses that you can find on the high-street right now.
We had so much fun researching the film, characters, and period - sourced our favourite pieces and headed up to the Georgian Quarter with our cameras.
It was important for us to style the dresses how we would genuinely wear them today/early spring - queue ankle boots instead of slippers, and there wasn't an upper length glove or set of pearls in sight!
Lucy's dress: ASOS (currently out of stock)
We wanted to include wearable dresses that took
inspiration from the film and Georgian period - rather than looking like we're attending an 18th century costume party. And we fell so much in love with the dresses that we soon started planning spring/summer picnics and days out.
Lucy & I had so much fun putting this together - it's such a joy to be creative together from the process of research, to shopping for the perfect dress, to shooting together and posting something we're both really proud of!
