(Romeo and Juliet)

The costumes from the newer version of Romeo and Juliet represent the characters quite a bit. Lady Capulet’s outfit of an Egyptian Queen, shows how she thinks that she is very beautiful and above others. Paris also seems very full of himself because he is wearing an astronaut suit. He is like Lady Capulet, he feels that he is above others. I think these costumes are good representations of how Lady Capulet and Paris think of themselves. I think that Romeo is wearing a suit of armor because he is at the ball to “rescue” Rosaline. I think that you can tell a lot about the characters of Romeo and Juliet by the way they were dressed at the Capulet ball.
