The Duchess / Keira Knightley as Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire

Year: 2008

Designer: Michael O'Connor

Georgiana wears this outfit to show her politican sympathies. In addition to the significance of the Whig colors, as noted above in the screenshots from the (sadly no longer existing) official film website, the fox fur is a reference to the fact that she is supporting a candidate named Fox.

Michael O'Connor, the designer, had this to say about costumes for the film: "Eighteenth century clothes were really quite extraordinary, but in the film the characters are speaking dialogue that needs to be paid attention to.  You can take inspiration from the past, but you have to play down large patterns and bright colours.  You don’t want the clothes to distract, though in reality they were probably extremely distracting."
