Butterfield 8

The glamorous styling and fashion of iconic actress Elizabeth Taylor—from the 1950s an 1960s. Glamorous vintage fashion from the Golden Age of Hollywood.




Butterfirld 8 is one of those movies where the interiors are so amazing and everything is just so white, ice blue and chic in the apartment.

Let's stating from the classic opening scene: Elizabeth Taylor is Gloria, wearing a slip and a mink, padding about her lover's Fifth Avenue apartment after a night of dissolute behaviour. The entire apartment is painted light blue, but the color is bigger than I remember it, and not a washed out baby blue but something closer to a classic mid-century turquoise. Still, the color is very cool, and contrasts with the incredible sensuality of Ms. Taylor.




When she discovers the envelope full of money and a note that says“Is this enough?" she revolts, writes “no sale" on the mirror in lipstick, and runs out the door with a bottle of scotch.



Even her lipstick writing on the mirror is elegant...






The lovely chandeliers, Gold accents with that Butterfield 8 blue-green walls. Pristine white furniture and rattan backed chairs. 




























Fashion is not just about the collocation of clothing, can also be reflected in your taste in decoration.

Here are  two styles of decoration which are selected the ideas and colors from the movie Butterfirld 8.

The style Essentials from Taylor in a place in the sun




The Essential Elizabeth Taylor, The One Need To Remember, Is Angela Vickers, The Rich Young Woman In George Stevens’ A Place In The Sun (1951) Who Makes An Immediate Connection To Montgomery Clift’s George Eastman, First Over A Pool Table And Then On The Dance Floor, Until They’Re Overcome By Feelings For Each Other And Rush Outside To A Terrace. Stevens Gives Us Screen-Filling Close-Ups Of Their Lusciously Modeled, Dark Young Faces As Clift Kisses Taylor’s Hands And She Reacts To His Tormented Sensitivity.
