One Dress a Day Challenge
September: Bond Films
Casino Royale (2006) / Eva Green as Vesper Lynd
Continuing with the five primary modes of Bond Girl chic, the third item on the list is evening wear. We've already had a taste of that with Sylvia Trench. Vesper Lynd's backless purple gown from Casino Royale is perhaps the most iconic evening dress of the Daniel Craig era. The plunging neckline and gathered material in the bodice make me think of Marilyn Monroe's famous gold dress, while the long lines echo the 1930s by way of the 1970s. The sparkly edging to the neck is meant to be attention-grabbing, and it is. The dress is finished with a matching wrap and clutch purse.
Like many dresses that appear deep purple onscreen, it appears considerably lighter and closer to raspberry-pink when seen offscreen. Compare this dress for another example of the same phenomenon.

Weren't you supposed to enter so that the others could see you?
Was I? My mistake. Good luck, darling.

Firsts and Lasts
Love is awful. It's awful. It's painful. It's frightening... And love isn’t something that weak people do. Being a romantic takes a hell of a lot of hope. When you find somebody that you love, it feels like hope.
- The Priest's wedding speech (in full here), Fleabag
Inspired by @thestalwartheart 's First and Last Impressions as told through the language of flowers.
