is a spin on a real dress modeled by Twiggy.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Popperfoto via Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Dicks-Mireaux drew on that razzmatazz for Taylor-Joy\u2019s first look for the film, a stunning peach chiffon tent dress that she wears to the famed Cafe de Paris nightclub.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat actually came from a paper pattern that I found,\u201d Dicks-Mireaux admitted. \u201cAt the time, a lot of women \u2014 including myself and my mother \u2014\u00a0made their own dresses, and that dress had a pattern whose shape was quite simple.\u201d That was key, since Sandie is a wide-eyed ingenue with no money, and would have had to sew her own frocks.<\/p>\n<p>In other words: \u201cIt couldn\u2019t be high fashion, but it needed to look sophisticated enough to get into the Cafe de Paris.\u201d Dicks-Mireaux based the pinkish hue on a photograph of Twiggy wearing a similar dress. \u201cIt\u2019s such a beautiful color \u2026 and it goes great with blond hair.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The white vinyl coat that both Sandie and Eloise wear throughout the film, meanwhile, was initially supposed to be black, inspired by the sleek black mac Petula Clark wears in a video of her singing her hit \u201cDowntown\u201d (which Taylor-Joy also performs in the movie). But Dicks-Mireaux changed her mind when she saw Julie Christie wearing a white version in the 1965 movie \u201cDarling.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-nypost-medium-post\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"322\" height=\"483\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/darling-julie-christie.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=322\" alt=\"Julie Christie and Laurence Harvey in &quot;Darling.&quot;\" class=\"wp-image-19953242\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/darling-julie-christie.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=644 644w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/darling-julie-christie.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=483 483w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/darling-julie-christie.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=322 322w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/darling-julie-christie.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=161 161w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/darling-julie-christie.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 322px) 100vw, 322px\"\/><figcaption>Julie Christie\u2019s white raincoat in 1965\u2019s \u201cDarling\u201d also sparked ideas for the \u201cLast Night in Soho\u201d wardrobe.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Courtesy Everett Collection<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cIt was so great for all those night shots,\u201d she said.
