The futuristic sci-fi movie 'Metropolis' was made in
1927, after its director Fritz Lang was inspired by his first glimpse
of New York skyscrapers. But the film also shows a strong Art Deco
influence, and we like to think this same look can be seen in our
'Metropolis Maria' dress above.
In 1984 a version of the film was released with a
soundtrack which included Freddie Mercury and Adam Ant. We bet even
George Orwell couldn't have predicted that.
At its first airing, the pioneering visual effects resulted in
'spontaneous applause' – at Clothes Box we can't guarantee that kind of response to the
Metropolis Maria dress, but we're sure people will sit up and take
notice!
