Clothes from the movie Rent

Many of you have requested info on the clothes from the movie Rent. So we got busy researching, made some calls, sent some emails, begged a little and wham like the sounds of heels hitting a table we got some info for you. This was another great movie to research as it was actually the first Broadway Play I ever saw and a great introduction to the power of New York Theatre. So as the team was submitting work to me I got to re-live some of the great scenes from Rent, via the wardrobe. Did you know that a number of costumes in the film are based on those from the original stage production, including the striped sweater Mark wears during "La Vie Boheme", Collins' hat, Mimi's New Year's Eve outfit (which she actually wears during 'Out Tonight' in the stage production), Maureen's catsuit, and several of Angel's costumes, including the flowered skirt costume and the Santa suit. The section on Rent will be placed on the site soon, so make sure you come by and visit it.
