One dress in the Jean-Charles de Castelbajac Spring/Summer 2008 Show, titled « Sportacus », paid tribute to Elizabeth Taylor in Joseph L. Mankiewicz’s « Cleopatra ».
Other « Cleopatra »-inspired items : Topshop Unique Spring/Summer 2012 (portraits of Elizabeth Taylor in « Cleopatra » were reproduced on the sweater and on the T-shirt of the 35th and 36th looks, and on the invitation for this show, whose theme was « ancient Egypt meets ’90s urban hip-hop scene »).

Definitely, thank you ! Somehow, the scenography reminds me of Daniel Buren’s emblematic stripes ! There are so many icons in this divine photo ! Xxx
