This is how we made the costumes for The Count of Monte Cristo starring Pierre Niney

by

We are proud to share with you the details of our latest collaboration on the new film version of The Count of Monte Cristo, based on the famous novel by Alexandre Dumas. This project, starring actor Pierre Niney, was recently presented at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival and will soon be in theaters.

The costume design, by costume designer Thierry Delettre, has managed to capture the essence of each character and transport us to the era in which the story takes place. We thank Thierry for once again trusting our team to bring his creations to life.

Over the years, we have had the privilege of working together on numerous projects, such as The Three Musketeers, Germinal, Eiffel and many more. Each project has been an opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to quality and authenticity in costume making.

On this occasion, our team has made a variety of costumes for The Count of Monte Cristo. For the women, we created dresses, skirts and coats, many of which were made in our Lisbon workshop, where every detail is carefully attended to. For men, we have made complete suits that reflect the elegance and style of the period.

Below, we leave you some images of the tailoring process and costume fittings, where you can appreciate the meticulous work and dedication we put into each piece. We hope you enjoy this glimpse behind the scenes as much as we have enjoyed creating these costumes.

Thanks for following us and sharing our passion for film costumes!
