"3 Women," starring Sissy Spacek and Shelley Duvall
1977
Directed by Robert Altman
I was up late doing homework the other night, scrolling through Netflix Instant Watch as usual, when I came across this very absurd Fashion Gem!!!
Don't be fooled by the eery music.....
Despite it's creepiness, it's full of 1970's style,
a vibe I'm feeling for summer....
This blog has to be in parts because I was so inspired I took a ton of frames and it would be too many pictures for one post to handle.
Enjoy!

The girls meet at work, an old folk's rehabilitation center
I LOVE the old lady's cat eye glasses!

Sissy Spacek-youthful innocent |

Chunky Heel Shoes!! |
The story takes place in a desert community in Los Angeles.
Yellow is the central color to Millie, while pink is Pinky Rose's identity color.
|
LOVE Millie's full cotton skirt and matching peasant style crop top |
|
Dodge City, the girls' local bar |
|
I love the use of color throughout the film. Purple Sage apartment building with purple rails and doors, a blue pool to contrast with retro orange print cushions. |
|
Could the tank be foreshadowing?.....

Millie loves YELLOW
|
Millie's decor is kitschy yellow. I love it. While yellow is the traditionally the color of friendship, I'm not sure the girls' friendship is true... |

1970's long cotton nightgown and robe. |
