I have to be completely up front and admit that this outfit was just an excuse for me to use that velvet jacket. I'm desperate to get my hands on this jacket! If you see it for sale online/offline in a 12 or 14, please, please let me know! 

Brotherhood of the Wolf is a very hard film to categorise. part supernatural horror, part thriller, part historical drama, with some fantastically atmospheric fantasy sequences. Red is one of the few standout colours in this film, and nobody wears it better than Marianne Morangias. Her costume is always vibrant, almost taunting when so many of the other characters fade into the background in greys and browns. She recalls the colour of blood, the colour of the Templars, history and the old blood she comes from. 

I went with kitschy over haute for Marianne with those terribly obvious Iron Fist shoes and Twilight t-shirt, which could be swapped out for something a bit more glamorous - a gold bralet or black vintage bustier would work but I love the idea of having that OTT jacket mixed with semi-casual choices.

The Wicker Man (2006)

Black wrap dress, $120 / Knee high socks / Dollhouse shoes / Bride hair accessory / Made to Order Custom Etched Armor Brass by BlackenedCreations, $98

Although this Coco Fennell dress was inspired by The Silence of the Lambs I just couldn't get it out of my mind for a Wicker Man outfit. Taking bees as the (rather obvious) central motif, a wicked schoolgirl-esque look, paired with edgy cage shoes and a bronze lighter to burn the world down. Based on the 2006 remake.
