Alice's Red Dress

I know, I know... I’m very late with Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland but I was one of the people who wanted to watch it when it first premiered. Things didn't work out  since I’ve been very busy with projects and research papers, thanks to FIT; I haven’t. But today, after finishing up writing and editing a nine page report and working on a storyboard for a commercial my partner and I are assigned, I managed some time.

I chose Alice in Wonderland because it was the best choice out of all the movies that are out now (in my opinion).The funny thing is I had a negative opinion about the movie beforehand since a few people told me that it wasn’t what they expected. So without much enthusiasm or anticipation, like I would have if I saw the movie when it first came out, I watched it to kill some time because I knew if anything I could be visually entertained since Tim Burton's films tend to do that.

To my surprise, I found myself fully engaged in the film, especially the costumes and attire! I was pretty much in love with the the dresses that Alice wore when she was on her perilous adventure. The one that I first took notice of was the blue dress with ruffles she had on when she first shrunk after drinking from the brown liquid.

However, the dress that I coveted over was the red taffeta dress Alice wore when she spent some time in the evil Red Queen’s castle. The dress was mixed with white and black and was just so lovely! I would love to wear it and maybe one day visit Underland? Of course, I'd choose to stay at the White Queen’s palace which happened to be oh-so-heavenly!
