Whether Dorothy’s ruby slippers in The Wizard of Oz, Audrey Hepburn in that Little Black Dress or James Dean's red windbreaker in Rebel Without a Cause, colour plays a crucial narrative device in film. Caroline Young explores the symbolism of key Hollywood looks and how cinema has influenced key moments in the history of colour and fashion.
