I VESTITI DEI SOGNI (THE CLOTHING OF DREAMS)
Rome’s Palazzo Braschi is hosting an exhibition dedicated to the excellence of Italian costumes in film. Oscar-winning costume designers Piero Tosi, Danilo Donati, Milena Canonero and Gabriella Pescucci are the protagonists of a show that presents a journey from the origins of filmmaking to the present – from the divas of the silent movie era to “The Great Beauty”. Cineteca di Bologna film archive director and this exhibit’s curator Gian Luca Farinelli explains: “The Clothing of Dreams is split into two parts. There is a main itinerary and a permanent collection. The latter is broader and we have chosen to place the costumes as part of a dialogue inspired by Palazzo Braschi’s collection of paintings on display. The main itinerary continues the story of a century of the Italian School of Costume. It unwinds through the first ten halls, culminating in the hall dedicated to Tirelli Costumier, to which we granted carte blanche in the choice of clothes and films to represent (in celebration of their 50th anniversary). The exhibit closes with the hall dedicated to the charming costumes designed by Milena Canonero for Marie Antoinette at the heart of the permanent exhibit. The names on display are some of the greats, the essential designers: Caramba, Vittorio Nino Novarese, Gino Carlo Sensani, Piero Gherardi, Piero Tosi, Danilo Donati, Gabriella Pescucci, Maurizio Millenotti, Milena Canonero, Pier Luigi Pizzi and Gitt Magrini.”
