Alice in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking Glass film costumes on display...

In 2010's live-action movie Alice in Wonderland, director Tim Burton reimagined Lewis Carroll's infamous literary heroine and Disney's classic 1951 animated film of the same name. The 2016 sequel, Alice Through the Looking Glass, was directed by James Bobin and saw Mia Wasikowska reprise her role as the titular 'Alice Kingsleigh' as she traveled through time to learn more about the histories of Johnny Depp as 'The Mad Hatter', Anne Hathway as 'Mirana, the White Queen' and Helena Bonham Carter as 'Iracebeth, the Red Queen'. This time she faced Sacha Baron Cohen's 'Time' to help rescue her friends.

Colleen Atwood was Costumer Designer on both movies and took home the Oscar for her costumes in Alice in Wonderland.

Anne Hathaway's White Queen costume is from the first film and Helena Bonham Carter's Red Queen outfit from the sequel, and both were photographed on display at Disney's D23 Expo on August 23, 2019.

Alice Through the Looking Glass film costumes on display at L.A.'s FIDM Museum...

Even though I'd previously seen the majority of these costumes at Disney's D23 Expo and the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood, L.A.'s FIDM Museum also provided a wonderful 360ยบ view of Colleen Atwood's costume designs from last year's Alice Through the Looking Glass movie on February 8, 2017.

The Costume Designer also had two other fantastic selections of outfits at this 25th Art of Motion Picture Costume Design exhibition, her Oscar-winning Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them costumes and her The Huntsman: Winter's War film costumes, so be sure to check them out too.

Since we last saw our titular character in Alice in Wonderland she's been sailing around the world, exploring far off lands like Asia, which have influenced her wardrobe with regional inspiration and nautical influences.

The first colourful costume is loosely inspired by imperial costumes in China with its embroidered purple tunic, shaped collar and neckpiece and pants, whilst Alice's other look has a more naval theme from her time at sea.

For more fantastical costumes worn by Mia Wasikowska make sure you also check out these Oscar-winning Alice in Wonderland movie costumes.

In the movie Alice goes to a party in Victorian England in her Chinese-inspired costume and meets 'Alexandra' (played by Joanna Bobin), who is the wife of 'Hamish Ascot' the new owner of the trading company and the ship Alice captains, who she once declined to marry.

In this sequel, 'Time' himself is the very enemy for Alice as she tries to help her friend the 'Mad Hatter' and Sacha Baron Cohen plays the personification of the magical being.

I really love this outlandish costume for the Lord of Time with its dramatic, oversized shoulder pads.

Fans of the actor can also check out his film costumes in The Dictator and his Ali G InDaHouse movie costume.

In the movie Helena Bonham Carter reprises her role as 'Iracebeth' and via Alice's travels through time we get to see how she received her oversized big head and turned into the wicked 'Red Queen'.

I loved getting to see this ornate organic armour costume out from behind a dark, reflective display case, and if you like this, be sure to also check out the other regal costume she wears as the Red Queen in Alice through the Looking Glass (as featured in this billboard for the movie)
