Alice's Multiple Wardrobe changes!
Alice's character in the Tim Burton version of the movie Alice in Wonderland goes through sooo many wardrobe changes. Our activity for this book in class was to encourage everyone to design their own costumes. Colleen Atwood, who designed the wardrobe for the movie, won an Oscar (the only Oscar the movie won). I think she is an amazing woman with such wonderful creativity and I truly admire her!!
One thing I particularly loved about Alice's wardrobe changes was that they changed according to her size. At the beginning, when she first drinks the liquid that shrinks her, her dress becomes too big for her and she dawns her stockings as a dress.
Then, when she gets big again, her dress is too tight on her. I also loved the dress that the Mad Hatter made for her in like five seconds! Her dresses were truly couture!

I think Colleen Atwood did an amazing job designing the costumes for that movie! Even though I'm not a fan of Alice in Wonderland, I like how she stuck with a sort of traditional Alice dress in the beginning and end of the movie. I also liked how the other dresses Alice wore were creative variations and homages to the original Alice dress. I'm so glad she one an Oscar!
Well after glancing over your blog about alice i believe that what caught my eye was the part were you tlked briefly about alice drinking the random bottle that said drink me it reminds me of a picture that i once saw.
