I did a bit more digging into the movie--turns out the masterful cinematography in the movie was the work of the DP for Amelie after all, Michel Amathieu. I'm proud I was able to spot it.
But what I was really interested in was the costume designer, Jill Taylor. Turns out most of the pieces, though reminiscent of Anthropologie, were custom made, or at least custom embellished, for the movie. I thought that was pretty cool--I assumed that most costume designers were just glorified shoppers, and I was hoping I could find out where they had bought that cool coat. I went through and took screenshots of all the cool outfits Penelope gets to wear throughout the film. This makes me want to get back into costuming--no money in it, but so much fun!
