Women He’s Undressed

A feature documentary about the life of the Australian costume designer and three time Oscar winner Orry-Kelly, directed by Gillian Armstrong.
FrenchBaker created a broad range of visual story telling techniques to enhance this predominantly archive based film.  We produced motion graphics and visual effects including opening/closing titles, sequences for over 120 archival stills, visual effects for projections as part of Orry’s stylised dramatic sequences, costume sketch, newspaper and magazine sequences.

Orry-Kelly was a Hollywood legend, his costume designs adored by cinema’s greatest leading ladies – but in his home country of Australia his achievements remained unknown.  During the boom years of Hollywood he was costume designer on an astonishing 282 motion pictures. He designed for the stars like Marilyn Munroe, Bette Davis, Humphrey Bogart, Rosalind Russell, Errol Flynn and many more of the immortals. His films included Some Like It Hot, Casablanca, An American in Paris and Now, Voyager.
