Vertigo (1958)

Kim Novak's sweater and skirt as Judy Barton in Vertigo (1958), designed by Edith Head and shown at the Academy Museum from the collection of Larry McQueen. Where Madeleine is all cool tailoring, Judy gets snug cashmere, a polka-dot collar and a jaunty bow: a shopgirl's idea of smart. Head still dips her in the same green that haunts the rest of the film, so the clothes give the game away before the plot does. The jewelry on the mannequin is not original.
