Style Inspiration: Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day
April 9, 2008 by phoebems
Has anyone else caught this absolutely delightful movie? It’s out in theaters now, starring Frances McDormand and Amy Adams. The film is set on the eve of WWII in London, and has the best costumes!
I’m not sure how far you’d want to go, but it would be great to get some late 1930s-early 1940s glamour into a wedding dress/bridesmaid dresses! Here are a few ideas:
J. Crew Mimi T-Shirt Dress (back):
Claire Pettibone Cloisonne dress:
Hollywould Susanna D’Orsay peeptoe:
Even if it’s not your style, this movie is such fun. It would make a great bridesmaids outing or mother/daughter night out!






I love this post! I saw the movie about a month ago and immediately went home to look up pictures that showed off her hair/makeup. Amy Adams is so cute anyways, but she was gorg in this movie! I really would love to show my make up artist pics of her makeup from the movie as inspiration for my big day!
These are wonderful! I really want to see this movie.
That first J.Crew dress is amazing!
