Lucire publisher Jack Yan's movie-tip in June 2008

Jack Yan is publisher of the
global magazines lucire.com & Lucire

Question: Which movie has to be seen because of its great costumes!

"Stanley Donen's Arabesque, starring Gregory Peck and Sophia Loren. Christian Dior supplied Miss Loren's clothes, including a whole bunch of shoes that was worked in to the script as the villain's fetish.

London had a very hip, modern look in this movie and Dior's designs helped greatly. Nighties, a lovely hat for Ascot, coats … And who better to model them than the curvaceous Miss Sophia Loren?"

Video: Trailer for the 1966 Stanley Donen's "Arabesque" starring Gregory Peck and Sophia Loren. Music by Henry Mancini.
