For six months next year, Captain Jack Sparrow’s pirate garb, Cruella de Vil’s fur coat, and Cinderella’s glass slipper will have a new home at the Birmingham Museum of Art.
The museum announced it will be the next institution to house the critically acclaimed exhibition “Heroes and Villains: The Art of the Disney Costume,” created by the Walt Disney Archives.
The “Cinderella’s Workshop” gallery displays the evolution of Cinderella’s dresses from different Disney adaptations, from 1997′s Rodgers and Hammerstein’s “Cinderella” to 2014′s “Into the Woods,” the 2015 live-action remake, and “Once Upon a Time” the popular series that ran on ABC from 2011–2018.
“Over the years, the costume designers don’t get as much attention as say, the cinematographers, the set designers and prop builders and they’re just as important to the overall look of the film and are artists in their own right that we want to celebrate.”
