Liriodendron has just left Hobbiton.
Thumbs up

Boromir! His costume catches my eye in every scene. I collect vintage clothes/fabrics. The shade of purple in his outfit is that same wonderful brassy, faded, yellow/purple shade that certain vintage satins and velvets get with several decades of age. I love it! It gives him a timely air of authenticity that I would never have imagined anyone going to the trouble to create. His chainmail, leathers, and fur cape, plus the velvets are quite regal, yet very manly (humanly! ) in their sheer weight. LOVE IT! <p>[ April 19, 2003: Message edited by: Liriodendron ]
