Description
This is the dress Mina is wearing in the absithne scene in Dracula by Francis Ford Coppola. Probably the most famous costume from the movie, it’s been made by lovely and missed Eiko Ishioka.
I found that dress so amazing and I’m crazy about red.
You can find the whole progress of the gown on my blog:
