Directed by Joe Wright and based on a novel by Ian McEwan, the film\u2019s Oscar-nominated costume designer Jacqueline Duran was aware of the dress\u2019s role in the relationship between the film\u2019s two leading characters, and designed a sophisticated, seemingly simple cinematic device The dress is an emerald-green, slinky, low-cut, with a flapper drop back and thin straps. It is draped around the upper hip, has a central slit, and an overall Grecian, full-skirted silhouette. It was far and away from the rigid bourgeois style from the 1930s (the film takes place in 1935), but also a signature look from couture house Maison Paquin, which was hugely popular at the time.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nItalian author Marco Belpoliti has stated that \u2018green is everywhere\u2019. Starting with <strong>The Bible<\/strong>, it is mentioned in the book of Genesis when describing  Eden &#8211; the garden inhabited by Adam and Eve. However, primitive paintings are earthy and yellowish. \u2018Cold\u2019 colours come later. Even the rich Greek vocabulary only offers the term <em>glaukos<\/em> which can mean blue-grey but also brown and yellow. The Romans discovered something important: the pigments used to dye fabrics green were very hard to fix. Things changed for green with the rise of Innocent III (1198-1216) who, before being elected as Pope, wrote a text on vestments\u2019 colors, defining green as a \u2018median tone\u2019.\t\n\n\n<\/p>\n<p>\nGreen ascended in <strong>Medieval<\/strong> times when it began to be associated with discretion, restraint, springtime and youth. However, it was also used to depict dragons, snakes and fantastic and hideous creatures. The colour has always embodied contradictions, dualities and wicked facts. Let&#8217;s consider the first edition of <em>De animalibus insectis<\/em> (1602) by Italian naturalist Ulisse Aldrovandi, which resides in the Smithsonian Institute\u2019s Cullman Library. A key reference for entomologists, it is (in)famous for its green leather cover and cannot be touched because it is superficially treated with arsenic. An attempt to kill someone? Not at all! As confirmed by Professor Alexandra K. Newman, Post-Doctoral Fellow at the Library, treating books with poison was common practice up until the twentieth century \u2013 mainly to protect them from parasites.\n\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe union of blue and yellow, in other words green, is featured in <strong>FILA<\/strong> heritage several times. On May 8th 1978, <strong>Reinhold Messner<\/strong> scaled Mount Everest together with Peter Habeler.On the way, he wore a turtleneck sweater made of apple green yarn, an iconic choice he personally requested.  In the same decade, <strong>Evonne Goolagong Cawley<\/strong> dominated tennis courts, wearing green pastel uniforms that made history. After many years, her legacy lived on \u2013 also from a chromatic point of view \u2013 with tennis star <strong>Kim Clijsters<\/strong>. Among the many looks she made famous, we are particularly fond of the bright green uniform she wore for the 2011 Australian Open.           \n<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"box-suggest-newsletter\">\n<p>Would you like to receive &#8220;Wonnie News&#8221;?
