Haute Set

This is classic sci fi in so many ways. The flying saucer, the desert planet, the iconic robot (who's also a seamstress!) as well as skirts so short, you wouldn't believe it's the 1950's. Join us as we ask the age-old question- why are the men acting like that?  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0049223/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_forbidden https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forbidden_Planet Mu...

Dr. Cyclops was a bit of a wild ride featuring- mad scientists, radium shrinking technology, colonial-nightmare chic outfits, and honestly some really nice design moments. Join us to hear all about it.  Info from:  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0032412/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_dr%2520cyclops https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0372128/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1 Music: Cassette Deck by Basketcase

We move forward to sci fi from the 1930's with the little-remembered Just Imagine. Billed as the first sci fi musical. Is that true? We did not look it up to find out! We continue our examination of costumes based on only what we saw and very little outside research. And we saw a lot.

We kick of 100 years of sci fi by looking at the costumes in Metropolis. This un-researched and un-serious exploration of the costume design won't answer any of your burning questions, but hopefully will be a fun time.
