costumes

when looking at costuming in rom coms , it is able to be seen that the costume for the ladies is ussually quite dressy. this maybe a connotation for aiming to attract to a female audience as they maybe able to find it relateable in a way , and/or this maybe to support the female gender , which most women will also support. one example we can see this in , is the film pretty women , ironically.

In this film , Julia Roberts is dressed in some very provocative clothing as she is an escort , but when at the end , she gets with Richard Gere , she is wearing very fancy clothing , but she has always looked pretty throughout the film , so therefore possibly supporting women as a beautiful gender ?

In other rom coms , we see women acting very laid back in a comical way , and not wearing fancy clothes. In films like Bridget Jones Diary , she doesnt dress up very much , and is seen as a very relateable idol to many women .

There is a mix between rom com films , when it comes to clothing , as some are as laid back as possible with no frills , and others potray women as being very elegant and pretty.
