Tilda Swinton's White Witch costume from Narnia's The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe on display...

With the weather turning wintery, I thought that this 'White Witch' costume from the film adaptation of C. S. Lewis' The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe would be the perfect choice. In the live-action fantasy movie from 2005, Tilda Swinton played 'Jadis the White Witch', who holds the magical land of Narnia under a spell of an eternal winter.

This frosty Jadis costume was photographed on display at Disney's D23 Expo on August 23, 2019, as part of the Walt Disney Archives Heroes & Villains costume exhibit.

Isis Mussenden was Costume Designer on the film and this dress was created with the help of a textile artist to resemble a glacier cracking with its ice-inspired fabric and lace.

Be sure to also check out this other White Witch costume worn by Tilda Swinton in the movie and her chariot on display, plus more even movie costumes from The Chronicles of Narnia.
