We tried several looks for days and finally locked the one you see in the film.
It constantly changes in sync with the costumes through the film. I am glad the Academy saw that. My best wishes to all the other nominees as well," Helmed by Stephen Frears, "Victoria &amp; Abdul" is based on a novel by Shrabani Basu.
