TweetAbout the site
The aim of Clothes on Film is to examine fashion and identity on film. With articles on specific outfits, essays, reviews, news and whatever else seems to fit, we will create a mini-library of movie clothes for you to drop by and peruse whenever you like.
If you feel an article has overlooked an important point, again please email the editor. Furthermore if there is a specific outfit/film not yet featured that you would like to talk about yourself, give us a shout and hopefully we can put something up on the site.
Clothes on Film Editor:
I’m Chris Laverty. Clothes on Film was my idea and I run the site on a day to day basis. I am a writer with a love of fashion, vintage in particular, and cinema (read my reviews at Rotten Tomatoes among others). My favourite drink is a Montgomery.

Specialising in musicals, Sarah is an avid viewer of 1930s movies with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, ‘Grease’, anything from the 1960s and 1970s and contemporary US comedies and drama series’. From a young age she has been wearing vintage clothes, creating cool and kooky looks from purchases in second-hand stores – never afraid to be the centre of attention. When not thinking about what to wear or watching movies, she sings and dances herself on stage in various shows around the UK. Contact: Sarah[at]clothesonfilm.com
Ben McCarthy
Currently studying Film Production Technology at university, Ben fell into film journalism by accident as he managed to get a press pass for the recent London Film Festival, and now can’t get enough of it. In addition to Clothes on Film, he writes for ScreenCrave, his own blog and Week in Rewind. Ben has an unhealthy obsession with cinema; he thinks that the greatest film ever made is Goodfellas and has an ashamed love of Roland Emmerich movies. Hopes to have his own film TV show some day.

Spoilers:
A gentle word of warning…for safety’s sake assume that all articles, reviews, essays, etc include spoilers. This is probably the sort of place to visit after you have seen the movie, not before. The reasons for spoilers are pretty obvious; to discuss the clothes in a film we need to talk about it – all of it.
