Clothes make the man" (or woman). This is especially true in early
Hollywood silent films where a character's appearance could show an
immense number of different things about them. For example, Theda
Bara's role in A Fool There Was (1915) was known for her revealing
clothing, seductive appearance, and being the first "Vamp."
Wardrobe and costume design played a larger role in silent films
than in modern movies. The character's clothes told the audience
who they were and what their role was in the movie. In this
in-depth analysis, the author provides examples and explanations
about noteworthy characters who used their appearance to further
their fame.
