Ossie Clark in Cabaret

May 17, 2008 by WendyB

Last night, I watched one of my favorite movies, Cabaret, for the first time in years. I was thrilled to realize that Liza Minnelli was wearing the blouse version of an Ossie Clark dress that I own.

I still love the choreography for “Mein Herr.”

    Good God, I’m close 20 and I cannot coax my body into twists and turns such as those!

    I haven’t seen this movie. I can’t see Liza and not think of Judy Garland…whom I adore.

    I LOVE “Mein Herr”…and Cabaret overall.
    Apart from Divine Decadence, Liza’s whole look is so simple and fresh…and the clothes are fab. I also love what Marisa Berenson got to wear…

    That’s one classy music hall girl. What a fabulous dress, I would love to see inside your wardrobe.
    And I have just realised that I have been remiss and not included you in my blogroll. (Much re-organising needs to be done) So here is me, linking you and all the love you give. 😉

    I think a Wendy B Ossie Clarke charity auction is in order…. or at least a Wendy B Ossie Clark catalogue…

    Wow – I recently watched Cabaret as research for my 30th party in December (Cabaret themed!) and wondered where the blouse was from. The print/colour is amazing.
