Fashion obsessives: Where can I see Tilda Swinton's wardrobe for Io Sono L'Amore ... not in video format?

I've been thinking about those clothes since I saw the movie in 2010. I know Swinton's entire movie wardrobe was Jil Sander, and I can see a photo or clips here and there but I'm looking for a slideshow or some way to really get a close look at all the looks.

Does it absolutely have to be movie captures?
If you know the season, and it's recent (within ~3 years) you can go to http://vogue.co.uk --> Fashion Shows --> Catwalk Photos.
Moving your cursor over them gives a great detail zoom view.

Best answer: I found this, but I do not expect that to be appeasing enough.

Likewise, I believe i remember reading that the movie was set to take place in 1999 or 200. So as droolshark mentions, I would look for jil Sanders Spring and Fall lines for those two years.

Here is her Spring 2000 line.

I hope someone else can fill in the other blanks.

Response by poster: OK, how weird is this? wocka wocka wocka, I looked at your link, and then jumped over the Fashion in Films home page and darned if the actual sketches from the movie were posted not 2 days ago! Strange! But thanks, this is good -- I'd love to find it scene by scene...

Best answer: Hi @thinkpiece,

I see you came across my page looking for "Emma's" costumes in Io sono l'amore. While the wardrobe is "Jil Sander", the pieces were created specifically for the film in collaboration with the Costume Designer Antonella Cannarozzi so you won't be able to find any of them in her earlier collections. Her more recent SS11 collection seems to have a more similar vibe to it than 2000 period collections.

If you are looking for any specific looks to see better, I could happily arrange some better pictures of them if you give me the details. It's a passion of mine, as you might have guessed from my page.

Roz.

Response by poster: Wow, ciao, Roz! Thank you so much for coming by and weighing in. I did know that the pieces were created for the film. I'm actually going to watch it again this week and take notes. I will definitely send you a MeMail! And you get the Best Answer, for sure!!
