A brief introduction to the film

"Heir to the Danish Royal Family"-With such a big hat and handsome appearance, Prince Edward (luke mably) is as noble as a Greek statue painted with gold powder. It's a pity that the life of "the stars shine on the moon" seems to spoil such an excellent leader. Prince Edward is like a playboy who is used to traveling among flowers, driving an expensive sports car and enjoying fast food love, and his female companion is always the cutest girl in Copenhagen. Of course, Edward's unconventional unruly life has also become the focus of local media reports, which is quite detrimental to the dignity of the royal family, and even Queen rosalind (miranda richardson) can do nothing about it.

On the other side of the globe, Peggy Morgan (Julia Stiles) is an American girl who is determined to become a doctor. She took advantage of the gap between schools to take a part-time job, and at the same time took time out to help her family manage the dairy farm in Wisconsin. Peggy's full schedule will never be wasted on meaningless words such as "romance", "love" and "dating".

Under the false guidance of a TV advertisement, of course, in order to avoid annoying tabloid reporters, Prince Edward went to Peggy's school in the United States with a loyal retainer, Saul (Ben Miller), under the pseudonym "Eddie". On the other side of the globe, two young men and women who have nothing to do have an intersection. Although their first meeting was not very pleasant, it was just a little joke played by the love matchmaker ... The unexpected encounter of love disrupted Peggy's directional life rhythm. However, Prince Edward is destined to return to Denmark to become the king of a country. Can Peggy give up her lifelong dream and live a "happy life for a prince and a princess"?

Fashion handbook

Not the best, but the most expensive.

Martha Coolidge has a unique eye for female directors. She chose French fashion designer Magali Guidasci to arrange the overall shape for the characters in the film, which not only reflects Peggy's freshness as a student in an ordinary school in the Midwest of the United States, but also allows members of the royal family in another country to have clothes that match their status. This is an organic leap from pastoral simplicity to royal nobility. Gade Xichong used his delicate and romantic imagination to grasp the details, and regarded the process of "sparrow turning into princess" as a fashion designer's dream come true.

For Gardasi, The Sparrow Becomes a Princess is a luxury fashion show, and this kind of film rarely designs clothes for a fancy dinner, a coronation ceremony of the king and an official formal ball at the same time. In order to increase the credibility of the work, Gardesi tries to be perfect, even if it is only a tiny detail. After comparing the textures of countless kinds of fabrics, Geditz decided to choose the fabric produced by Abimelech Hainsworth, a valuable British fabric manufacturer, to cut the official clothes of kings and princes. Although this will inevitably increase the budget several times, Gordic still insists that this is the only place he can choose.

Diamonds are crazy, too

As for the indispensable royal jewelry, whether it is full of modern flavor or exudes extraordinary classical charm, it is impossible to rely entirely on the fake designed by imagination. Of course, Martha Coolidge might have scratched her head for a while without the proper help of jeweler Harry Winston. They provided the crew with several sets of amazing jewels, including Peggy's engagement ring-a 6-carat, perfect cut platinum ring with three gems on the edge. The market price exceeds $654.38 million. At the same time, other world-renowned jewelers are also scrambling to contribute. Peggy's stunning pink evening dress at the ball came from their generous hands, with a pair of 7-carat diamond earrings-perfect against a pink gem pendant, worth about $654.38 million+; And a streamlined necklace with a perfect shape, consisting of 24 carats of broken diamonds. The necklace pendant is a gem of the same color, with an estimated value of $200,000.

Carry luxury to the end

The Queen of Denmark has a diamond-like style and elegance, and you can't imagine what kind of shock her vault may bring to you-the designer in charge of this part is James Spencer, who conceived the vault in his heart as 9 feet square, and covered it with gorgeous blue velvet after being built with steel plates, which just matched the noble and mysterious temperament of the Queen. Spencer always built the same vault twice, but it wasn't because it didn't meet the director's requirements. For the first time, Spencer placed the vault directly on the floor of the palace with baroque architectural style for framing. It was there that Peggy began to look at her future life from the queen's point of view ... Later, Spencer would tear down the vault and relocate it in the studio because of the priceless jewels in the vault.

Building a vault and shooting this part of the scene is actually not as simple as imagined. Spencer added a special lighting system and complex mirror effect to the vault, just to set off the real brilliance of jewelry. It is understandable that Spencer is so concerned about this rather small detail: the vault is the queen's private room, which is full of her rather private personal collection.

In addition, the items displayed in the vault have also received equal attention. Jewelry that looks particularly classical is designed by Jablonex, the best manufacturer of antique decorative jewelry in Czechoslovakia, specially for movies. As for other modern and fashionable jewelry, they are genuine, with a total value of more than $4 million, which was made by Harry Winston.

short review

Seeing such a jaw-dropping dress introduction, you must be fidgeted by your hidden vanity, right? To put it bluntly, this is a romantic movie for women from a female perspective. Moreover, if you think about it carefully, it seems that not everyone can have a chance to see the splendor, elegance, nobility and solemnity of the Danish royal family, or experience the supreme glory of Danish women ... If you sneer at all this, you might as well read a foreign fashion manual with dazzling packaging and carefully selected models. Please. Never use your head when you appreciate it-it's a waste!
