Game of Thrones: The Costumes, the official book from Season 1 to Season 8

デッカくて分厚く、重い本ですが それ以上に内容がギュッとつまった素晴らしい本です。 買ってよかった！

GOT世界観ファンにとって最高です。期待以上のボリューム。仕舞い場所に困る本の大きさや重さを含め(#^.^#) 求めていたものがほぼ全て紹介されていました。お気に入りの衣装やアクセサリーのシーン映像をポーズかけてせっせと画面を写真に撮ってた自分は何だったのか？！英文の説明内容が解読できないけどすばらしい写真達で十分満足。ズームアップカットの多さにページを開いて感動です。クリエィター陣の拘りに絶句。 全て観終わってひとしきり感動した後にクールダウンしてから読むと良し。直ぐにまた最初から観たくなります。

This is not paperback. It is a very large and heavy fist class hardcover. Almost every page has full color, full page glossy clear photos of each costume. Many sorted by the main characters. Included are some concept sketches. Even the embroidery and jewelry have wonderful closeups. Not to fear boots, shoes scabbards and other accoutrements are depicted. A must have for GOT, LOTR, and Medieval fans.

A very beautiful 450 page, hard cover coffee table book featuring gorgeous pictures, costume renderings and studio shots. Here are some of my thoughts: Pros: • A very high-quality coffee table book with a hard bound cover and dust cover • Beautiful studio shots with lots of closeup details and many of Helen Sloan's on set stills to use in comparison • A large array of Michele Clapton's costume designs and renderings including some early concepts. Many of these have never been seen before • A great selection of many stand-out minor costumes, many pictures never seen before • A nice introduction by Clapton herself • Some mention of techniques and fabrics • Two double fold out sections Cons: • A very heavy weight put on later seasons costumes (especially S7 and S8) - even on the cover - to the exclusion of costumes from seasons 1, 2 and 3. • Many costumes from key characters excluded • Varys and Mel in particular have only a few costumes featured • Little mention of the sources and craftspeople except for a thank you at the back of the book. • Largely weighted with images probably about 2/3 pictures to 1/3 copy • None of the costumes from Season 6 – the ones designed by April Ferry - are included in the book. Sansa’s BOTB’s costume for instance. • Both House Frey and House Tarley are both omitted. Edmure Tully and Brynden Tully are also missing. Very little on Essos including Daario Naharis and the second sons, the Slave Masters, The Qarth 13, Quaithe, Jaqen H'ghar Costume CO

Super

A truly well thought through book. Presentation is by House and incorporates most of the players. I used this book for sewing inspiration and I found much more than I bargained for! The photos are brilliant and the drawings clear giving an insight to the designers ideas. If you became a GOT fan and loved the costumes then this book is a treasure to be read over and over. It ooozes talent to the point of sheer genius.

Despite the ending of the series, I loved the job in every department. This series is a masterclass un production design. Gorgeous book, one of the biggest in my collection, beautifully illustrated and with great pictures of the designs as well as details. Excellent book.
