March: Pink Redux
The Court Jester / Angela Lansbury as Princess Gwendolyn
This is one of Gwendolyn's simpler dresses, just for lounging about in her chambers. The ornamentation is confined to some rickrack and just a few pearls. It still has a luxuriously long skirt and trailing sleeves that swoosh out impressively when she moves, though!
Although the movie does not in general strive for historical accuracy, since it's basically a fairy tale, I do appreciate the medieval-style double-sided comb.

One Dress a Day Challenge
March: Pink Redux
Parade's End / Rebecca Hall as Sylvia Tietjens
Sheena Napier won a BAFTA for her costume design on this miniseries. I could swear I remember reading somewhere that this pale pink dress incorporates some vintage elements--possibly the beaded floral decoration on the bodice (see detail below)?--but I can't seem to locate the article now. So take that as unverified rumor, but it does seem plausible to me.
This costume is from the first episode of the series, which covers the years 1908 to 1912. It looks more like 1912 to me, so I'm filing it under 1910s. Can someone who has seen the show confirm?

Loud (Matilda) is basically the same song as Popular (Wicked) only they're both blonde
