Rosemary Harden, a dress curator and manager of the Fashion Museum Bath, a world-class museum of historical fashionable dress, reviews costumes in several well-known movies for historical accuracy.

First, Rosemary rates the outfits in court scenes from 'The Favourite' (2018), where Queen Anne was memorably played by Olivia Colman. Next up, she reviews costume in 'The Duchess' (2008), including those worn by Keira Knightley in her role as Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire.

Both the film and TV version of Jane Austen's 'Pride and Prejudice' are up next, with Rosemary commenting on the accuracy of Colin Firth's famous white shirt. She also reviews the mourning dress of Queen Victoria in 'Victoria and Abdul' (2017).

The dress worn by Rose DeWitt Bukater in her first appearance in 'Titanic' (1997) is praised next. The tube carriage scene from 'Darkest Hour' (2017) is rated next for its portrayal of Londoners during the Blitz in the 1940s. And then, it's the dress of Margaret Thatcher as worn by Meryl Streep in 'The Iron Lady' (2011).

The final two scenes up for review are from Forest Gump (1994) and the famous shopping scene from 'Pretty Woman' (1990).
