One Dress a Day Challenge

November: Oscar Winners

Some Like It Hot / Jack Lemmon as Jerry/"Daphne"

Year: 1959

Designer: Orry-Kelly

"Daphne's" dress has delicate embroidery tracing lozenge shapes on the front and back, surrounded by grapevine and dragonfly motifs. The little waist-level bows on the sides are a whimsical touch. The skirt has a scalloped edge and more embroidery, possibly floral.

Behind-the-scenes and publicity pictures reveal that this dress was a delicate pink, while Tony Curtis as Joe/Josephine was in pastel blue.

I was craving some Marilyn Monroe and decided to watch 'Some like it hot!' and am now wondering if the first half of the Lackadaisy pilot was based off of that movies opening-

Like, both of them feature a car chase where the ones being chased have a big box full of liquor that gets shot and starts leaking, they start shooting back at their pursuers through the rear windscreen and eventually manage to break down the chasers vehicle to get away!

Like??? I guess it could be a huge coincidence but idk this feels like an intentional reference. Which I am totally on board with I fucking love finding references between different pieces of media.
