    Journalism and Mass Communication, Mar.-Apr. 2021, Vol. 11, No. 2, 73-80 doi: 10.17265/2160-6579/2021.02.002 D DAVID PUBLISHING Cinematic Fashionability and Images Politics Chan Ka Lok Sobel Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong SAR, China The marriage of cinema and fashion? When, where and how their interaction and origin is begun? There should be no glamor and red carpet when The Lumière brothers short films like Workers leaving the Lumière factory, The Gardener, Baby’s Breakfast on the birth of cinema in 1895. However, we notice that artificially costumes are tailor-made for A Trip to the Moon in Georges Méliès and D. W. Griffith’s Intolerance. Suddenly, it adds the aesthetical and modernist elements into the blood of cinema beside the raw-realism of how the daily life of the common people is represented on the silver screen. Some kinds of bourgeois ideology and middle class value is enhanced. It is so unbelievable that some ordinary actress like Mary Pickford transforming into a movie star after beautifully dressing up. Not only the audience feel the power of movie magic but also the fashion magic. This paper explores the different perspective of movie and fashion in terms of fashion and film costumes, movie stars icon, fashion trends influenced by movies, and how fashion designers changes the look of cinema as well, etc. Keywords: ideology, movie images, stardom, fashionability Introduction Cinema is somehow like a showcase of fashion. General audiences are fans of movie stars not just because of their personal charisma, but because of the fashion they wear.

Name Photo Leonardo DiCaprio Brad Pitt Jason Statham Jet Li Henry Cavill Nicolas Cage Bruce Willis Scarlett Johansson Favorite Actor Though they may not be included in that list for some reason, my favorite actor is Cary Grant (https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3485845/nm0000026). They are known for: North by Northwest Notorious To Catch a Thief Their biography: “Once told by an interviewer,”Everybody would like to be Cary Grant“, Grant is said to have replied,”So would I." Cary Grant was born Archibald Alec Leach in Horfield, Bristol, England, to Elsie Maria (Kingdon) and Elias James Leach, who worked in a factory. His early years in Bristol would have been an ordinary lower-middle-class childhood, except for one extraordinary event. At age nine, he came home from school one day and was told his mother had gone off to a seaside resort. The real truth, however, was that she had been placed in a mental institution, where she would remain for years, and he was never told about it (he wouldn’t see his mother again until he was in his late 20s). He left school at fourteen, lying about his age and forging his father’s signature on a letter to join Bob Pender’s troupe of knockabout comedians. He learned pantomime as well as acrobatics as he toured with the Pender troupe in the English provinces, picked up a Cockney accent in the music halls in London, and then in July 1920 was one of the eight Pender boys selected to go to the US.
