Nine Naughties...



First there was Moulin Rouge, then Chicago … and now the movie musical ‘Nine’ is set to become the next big thing. The movie is based in Venice in the early 1960’s, around celebrated film director Guido Contini, who despite all his successes is encountering a midlife crisis as he approaches his 40th birthday. The film shows him in an emotional journey as he tries to gain back his creativity, entangling him in a web of romantic difficulties.



Although the lead character is male… a strong cast of Sophia Loren, Dame Judi Dench, Nicole Kidman, Penelope Cruz, Fergie, Marion Cottiliard and Kate Hudson, guarantee that it will be the female roles grabbing all the attention. Not just for musical lovers, but for fashionistas everywhere. If you fell in love with Nicole Kidman’s character Satine, in her diamond embellished corset or Renee Zellweger’s murderous sexy outfits you’ll have more than enough to fulfill you in this new movie. There are some truly breathtaking outfits for the likes of leading ladies Nicole Kidman, Penelope Cruz and Kate Hudson to dazzle in.

Colleen Atwood is the costume genius behind such movies as Memoirs of a Geisha, Chicago which she won Oscars for, she even designed the costumes for genre films like Sweeney Todd, Edward Scissorhands and Planet of the Apes. So no doubt she has a delicious array of outfits for this star-filled cast. For ‘Nine’ she worked alongside mega-jewelers Swarovski to create the unique costumes for the dance numbers, making the outfits not only dazzling but also very authentic.



Thanks to this movie we are going to see a massive return in sexy lingerie…so if like me, you are obsessed with matching twin-sets or cute little bustiers look no further than budget busting La Senza and Penneys for your fashion fix. With Tess Daly strutting her stuff in the La Senza campaign, it looks like ‘Nine’ also inspired the caberet style shoot! So dust off those fishnets and make sure you get some new lingerie..and it'll be a very happy New Year!
