With all the excitement surrounding the London 2012 Olympics, I thought it only proper to have some right British costumes on display.
Original costumes and props from The Iron Lady on display
Here's two of the original costumes worn by the 'Young Margaret' played by Alexandra Roach in the 2011 biopic of infamous female British Prime Minister and leader of the Conservative Party, 'Margaret Thatcher' in The Iron Lady.Young Margaret 1959 Houses of Parliament costume from The Iron Lady
Whilst Meryl Streep may have won an Oscar for her portrayal of an older and aging Margaret Thatcher, Alexandra Roach gave an equally impressive performance as a young, unmarried 'Margaret Roberts' at the start of her early political career.The Iron Lady movie poster
These very businesslike outfits were designed by Consolota Boyle, whose work can also be seen in The Queen and Angela's Ashes amongst many other movies.Young Margaret 1949 Dartford Dinner Party outfit from The Iron Lady
Be sure to stay tuned in the days to come for more fantastic costumes from The Iron Lady worn by Meryl Streep.
