Harvey Nichols is showcasing a selection of archive Vionnet pieces worn in Madonna’s debut film, “W.E.”, as seen on the film’s star Andrea Riseborough.
The film, which documents the life of Wallis Simpson, recruited renowned costume designer Arianne Phillips to help recreate the Thirties era – with highlights including abias cut ivory chiffon dress with embroidered leaf pattern of silver and strass bugle beads.
The chosen pieces will be shown on Harvey Nichols’ first floor in Dublin, alongside the current autumn/winter 2011-12 collection.

“The film ‘W.E.’ gave Vionnet such a wonderful opportunity to showcase the exquisite craftsmanship and skill of the house.
We were thrilled to be considered for the project, and it was so exciting to be part of such a lavish production that portrayed one of history’s most intriguing women.
The film, ‘W.E’, challenged us to utilise our extensive knowledge and craftsmanship to re-create the original pieces designed by Madeleine Vionnet for Wallis Simpson with precision and accuracy. Extensive research was carried out on fabrics and construction using original pieces from the archives at the Louvre.”
