I was on Art Gowns’ latest post and as usual, was blown away by her talent. On the comments section we discussed how I had done many film quizzes, but none as yet on fashion. So remedying that is my latest quiz which celebrates the beauty and originality of female outfits over the decades. As these looks are so timeless, it felt wrong to chronicle them, so the order is random. How many of the films they’re from can you get? Which grabs your attention the most?
Film 1
Film 2
Film 3
Film 4
Film 5
Film 6
Film 7
Film 8
Film 9
Film 10
Film 11
Film 12
Film 13
Film 14
Film 15

great quiz as always Alex!
Thanks Rob. Solid score, glad you enjoyed it.
Seen them all!
I’d expect nothing less ha!
13/15, didn’t know the name of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. I also guessed The House of a Thousand Flying Daggers so can’t claim that I guess. Great quiz and plenty of room to do more along these lines.
I’m happy to call it 13 1/2 🙂
You’re a prince Alex.
House of Flying daggers is my favorite!! the dress is absolutely gorgeous and the film too :p Great post!!
Your style is well known so no surprise you loved it 🙂
haha thanks a lot xx
I just scraped into double figures. No 1 grabbed my attention most, but I’m not sure it was just the dress 🙂
Marilyn was one of a kind. Had to include her more than once. Well done on your highet score so far Derrick 🙂
Ah! These are all fabulous! But I will always love Audrey Hepburn’s classic beauty in Breakfast At Tiffany’s. Great collection, Alex!
That’s a lot of people’s favourite. So glad you liked the mix.
I always notice the costuming but my favorite is the Cinderella because how it moved in the dancing segments, beautiful. I know the others, especially the older ones are iconic, Pretty Woman, Marilyn and Audrey Hepburn. But C is mesmerizing. I would have added Celize Theron in Snow White. : )
That’s a cool shout. Would have been easy to add more. I remember how much attention that Cinderella dress got. Certainly got people’s attention.
My favorite fairytale…the dress was a character of its own when danced.
13/15. I could not tell the titles of 6 and 14. I did get Legally Blond right, but that is not because I have seen this film. It helped that I kind of know Reese Witherspoon’s filmography, without seeing even a fraction of her films. I saw this courtroom and her in your pic, then it must be Legally Blond, right? lol
You deduced correctly. Very good score 🙂
10 out of 15. They’re all gorgeous.
Solid stuff. And yes they are.
Thanks
A new personal best – 11 out of 15!!!
LOL! It will be a few months until the next Art Gown is done & the new one is just posted.
Will reblog this sometime in between. Love it!
I had a feeling it would be your best one. So happy you like it.
😀 Yay!!! I’m looking forward to reblogging it!
14/15… and it will Always be Kill Bill for me. The Bride is my favourite movie character of all time.
The very definition of a Kick Ass female.
13 out of 15! Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn are icons to me. I love Legally Blonde!
A really good film. I even included her in my Insirational Females quiz

7,12,13 are my favorites.7 is my all-time favorite. I adore Audrey Hepburn. This quiz was very interesting. Thank you.
So glad you like it. And yes, it’s a wonderful film. She had such a magical presence on screen.
Hope you are doing well Alex!
Got 10 🙂 Great post!
Solid stuff. So happy you like it. I’m good. A lot to catch up on for sure.
14/15. I missed The Chronicles of Riddick. Ironically, I just bought a copy of this, but I have never seen it.
Impressive score all the same. I’ve not seen it either so will be curious to know what you think.
I got them all. I real,y must know my fashion, haha.
You know your style Fashion Movie King
Haha. I may do a post on my movie blog about fashion.
oh my goodness, you’ve lined up most of my favourite films here. Cher from Clueless is a particular favourite I used to copy her style at school. I just missed the last one 😦 if I got them all right could you have arranged to have all the outfits delivered to mine hehe.
Best wishes
Charlotte
Awesome stuff. And that would so make a fantastic exhibition. So much style and originality.
Except for 10 (I though it was “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”) & 14 (had no clue), got all the rest (including the ones I haven’t watched). Glam Post!! 😀
That’s a fantastic score. So happy you like the post.
Love this post! Just wanted to pop by and keep you posted. I’m still searching for the second….other element for my next Art Gown. It will be at least 3 months away! Looks like I’ll want to reblog this in 2 – 3 weeks. I’m try to stay paced. Hope all is well.
I will for sure I promise 🙂
😀
Reblogged this on Art Gowns.
That was so nice 🙂 You have always had such a great blog.
Well, I’m trying to make it better, and thank you. This is a perfect post to help keep things going between Art Gowns. I’ve started a new one, and I’m very excited, but she’s still at least 3 months away. I’m sketching more now…. gowns of course, and that should help!
The reblog has 45 likes already, and some comments. It’s your post’s reblog, so feel free to pop by and weigh in on any of the comments. Up to you, and thank you for this fab post! 😀
It is always a pleasure to read your blog. I’m so glad we came up with the idea for the post. It has been great to read the comments. After a break from blogging I need to catch up on a lot of others now.
That was fun!!!! Saw it on Resa’s blog.
So happy you enjoyed it. Welcome aboard 🙂
A great quizz. I was surprised I knew any of them.
I’m glad you got so much out of it. I wanted a real range through the genres and the decades.
13/15 not bad 😉😁
Very impressive stuff. If I could, I’d give you one of the dresses as a prize 🙂
Oh this is a fun one 😀
It’s certainly one of the most popular ones. I’m glad so many people enjoyed it.
A good quiz! There were 3-4 I missed, but I was pleased to see so many iconic classic film outfits included here. 🙂
It was as much a celebration as a quiz. I’m so glad you enjoyed it.
