The outfits that Baroness Schraeder 
ears struck me as not particularly 1930s, but I really don't know anything 
bout that period, so I thought of asking what this list had to say.  Any 
pinions?

When I worked in a local theatre costume shop, several of the regulars were big 
fans of the movie, but, given the awful costumes, I couldn't see why.  Yes, the 
Baroness is in '60s fashions.  The hairstyles and makeup are even worse. Maria, 
of course, is in generic "middle European peasant" style at the beginning.  
Don't know how authentic the nuns' habits are, but at least they look right.

So hubby and I watched "The Sound of Music" last night (there was nothing else 
n and those old classics are fun sometimes anyway) and I found myself wondering 
bout the authenticity of the costuming.  The outfits that Baroness Schraeder 
ears struck me as not particularly 1930s, but I really don't know anything 
bout that period, so I thought of asking what this list had to say.  Any 
pinions?
Many thanks and happy holidays!
