Glorious costumes from recent period dramas are key elements in the new selection of original screen outfits at Cinecittà Shows Off.

These are unique pieces made with artisanal skill by great tailors for Penny Dreadful, Domina and Il mio west, and also for Napoleon and Finally Dawn with a special focus on jewels, including crowns from Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story.
From March 29, 2024 – every day except Tuesday- visitors of all ages will be able to admire up close costumes worn by great Italian and international stars of cinema and TV series such as Kasia Smutniak, Eva Green, Margherita Buy, Lily James, Willem Dafoe, and to contemplate a gem, the outfit created for a true music legend, David Bowie.

To celebrate the new costume display, the Educational Department has prepared a program of 4 dates of guided tours and educational workshops to learn about the stage costumes in the exhibition and find out about the work of costume designers and theatrical costumers.
