ROMY SCHNEIDER - Court dress - Costume worn by ROMY SCHNEIDER in *Dommage que ce soit une putain* — Directed by LUCHINO VISCONTI in 1961. Crafted from raspberry-colored taffeta. Drawing inspiration from the aesthetic of court attire during the Elizabethan era, this is a long-sleeved sheath dress with puffed balloon sleeves. A wide, open square neckline edged with a white voile ruffle trimmed with a band of passementerie and accented with gold lurex thread. Laced closure at the back. The waist is accentuated by an appliqué belt, from which very large, padded box pleats extend, giving the skirt its full volume. The bodice is richly boned toward the stomach. Lined with wool and heavy canvas for the skirt portion. Dimensions: Shoulder width (shoulder to shoulder): 34 cm Bust (armpit to armpit): 41 cm Waist (flat measurement): 30 cm Length at center back: 150 cm Sleeve length: 57 cm Based on John Ford’s 1630 work, Visconti’s adaptation brings together two stage legends to portray Annabella and Giovanni. Romy Schneider and Alain Delon were dressed by the legendary Piero Tosi, also known for his costumes in *The Leopard* (1963). The fabric is frayed at the elbow pleats on one sleeve. Discoloration in the underarm area. A few stains or small marks from wear.
