Princess Kaiulani
Coming out in theaters this week is a new film about Princess Kaiulani, the princess of Hawaii. It looks like it will be good...not sure what the rating is yet though... :-S
Anyhoo! I believe it is set in the late 1880s, early 1890s--one of my favorite fashion eras!! The costumes are just beautiful! Take a look!

I was able to find several pictures of the real Princess Kaiulani online. Again, beautiful costumes from the era. Here are some of the pictures:
I would love to make some outfits based on some of these costumes!
Which do you like best?

Personally, I like thr green (with more modesty) and white ones from the movie, and the second picture of her...with the pearl necklace.

I especially like the photo of her with the pearls, she was very beautiful! Looks like bodice of the green gown from the film is designed in a similar style to that photo. That's my favorite but I do like some of the more modest costumes too.
Unfortunately, the movie isn't in theaters in my area. :( Well, I guess it'll be out on DVD eventually.
