Carbon Costume

Edward Bloom is a character in the 2003 Tim Burton Film Big Fish, and is played by Ewan McGregor. The film Big Fish is based off of the original book by Daniel Wallace. It follows Edward Bloom who has grown old and fallen ill. His son travels to visit him and hears his magical stories about his life, and finds the truth behind them.

Edward as we see him when he’s younger, is almost always wearing red and a deep blue. This creates a contrast to Sandra’s light sky blue dresses, and the yellow field of daffodils he creates for her.

Sandra is a character from the 2003 Tim Burton film Big Fish, and is played by Alison Lohman. The film Big Fish is based off of the original book by Daniel Wallace. It follows Edward Bloom who has grown old and fallen ill. His son travels to visit him and hears magical stories about his life, and finds the truth behind them. In this, he also tells the story of how he met Sandra, his love interest in the story and how he won her over.

Sandra wears lots of airy and southern style dresses and skirts, that are in bright and pastel colors. The iconic ruched light blue dress is probably the most recognizable of her costumes in the film that stands out beautifully against the field of yellow daffodils that Edward created for her. All of the lace detailing over layers of tulle adds to the southern look, as this takes place in Alabama. Add a bouquet of yellow daffodils to tie together the costume.
