Fashion in films: Desperately seeking Susan

  • Nov. 17th, 2008 at 8:22 PM

If you know nothing about the 80's that's the movie. And also great for New-York of course. No need to introduce you to Susan (aka Madonna in her best role -herself or not far-):



God knows how much I dreamt of that hatbox. I did mine with a sort of DIY black cardboard mini lunchbox with airbrushed golden skull stencil. I dragged it around to death. I'm still impressed how light Susan is travelling. That must have been New-York in Summer time and loads of cash hidden in these multiple pockets.




Susan in one of the first scenes of the movie hanging around in a hotel of Atlantic city living life in the fast lane. I love Susan Seidelman's taste for tiny details. Susan laying among the shuffled cards taking an ego trip is just iCandy.



Susan's idea of having a shower



A better view of the hatbox. I like the funny woman in curlers. It can only be in NY though I've never been there so I believe this is the sort of casual crazyness you may come across



At Susan's sister's flat. This pink candy-covered phone is a Chef d'Oeuvre



Coveting the sequined Disco boots. I can only agree with her but not sure I'd use the same technique to get them. Oh yeah she was not really to steal them but eventually that green jacket who 'belonged to Jimmy Hendrix' comes in useful...
