The seventh ensemble Miss Fisher wears in “Blood at the Wheel” (Season 2, Episode 7
The seventh ensemble Miss Fisher wears in “Blood at the Wheel” (Season 2, Episode 7) is her classic red plaid tweed jacket and skirt, along with two different red hats, and red leather gloves and purse.Phryne’s luxurious red plaid jacket and skirt is a great example of 1920′s tailored suits for women. The fur-trimmed jacket is cut in straight lines with double-breasted buttons and a matching belt across the hips. The belt buckle itself is a brass imprint of a Pharaoh’s head set against a black background. Her knee-length plaid skirt is made of the same fabric and has two box pleats in the front.We’ve seen this suit jacket and skirt combination twice before, in both 1x04 and 1x05, both worn with the red felt flower cloche she first wears in Jack’s office.Interestingly, Miss Fisher wears two different red hats with this outfit. The first one is her red cloche with flower detailing created with both feathers and felt worn as she consults with Jack about the Adventuress’ Club records. This cloche is one of Phryne’s favorites, appearing in twice in 1x01, 1x02, twice in 1x04, 1x05, 1x06, 1x09, and here. Her second hat, also made of a red felt, is a cloche with a bonnet-like brim that frames her face well and has three ribbons in cream, red, and black wrapping around the top of the hat, complementing the three interlocking cream, red, and black felt circles. It was worn in the opening scene of 1x05, but has changed a bit since then. In 1x05 and on Mandy Murphy Millinery’s website, it has one set of plain circles on each side of the hat. Here in 2x07, the ribbons are closer together and the ends are flared at the edges, and both sets of circles have been moved to the right side and decorated with a series of black beads across the interconnecting lines.She accessorizes with matching red leather driving gloves and a red leather handbag, as well as her bronze triangular earrings, seen on the right side of the Costume Exhibition photo.Screencaps from here, promotional photos from the official Facebook (x, x, x), hat and jewelry photos from the official Pinterest (x, x, x) and Mandy Murphy Millinery website. -- source link
