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. I made it for a meeting organized by a french forum, the theme is Dracula so every people who’s taking part of this meeting is making a costume from this movie!

This dress took me about 150 hours of work. The mask has been covered by me. The fan comes from Venice.
