'Babylon' costume designer Mary Zophres exclusively shared insight with E! News about Margot Robbie's stand-out look from the upcoming movie.
"She was very open to wearing anything," Zophres shared."Nellie is a daring woman and isn't afraid to put herself out there in a way that's sexual at times. Margot was fearless and was very trusting of the process. It was a great collaboration."
And while Robbie's red getup might be considered tame by today's standards, it marked a thrilling new era of fashion in the 1920s. Before flapper dresses ruled the dance floor and women could bare their knees and shoulders, they had to be completely covered up. "After a very repressed period of time, especially for women who were corseted for a century, and then it's not in fashion to wear a corset anymore," Zophres shared."Can you imagine?"
She added,"And it's OK for a woman to walk down the street without a male companion. I can only imagine that's part of what spurred the Roaring Twenties." As she put it,"We're just portraying it a little bit more realistically than might have been portrayed before."
