If you’ve been properly blown away by Margot Robbie’s Brontëesque style throughout her “Wuthering Heights” press tour, you’re in luck. H&M has debuted its own limited-edition collection inspired by Emerald Fennell’s upcoming adaption of the Gothic classic. And don’t worry, despite the Victorian Era’s obsession with hair, it doesn’t include any pieces made out of human locks.
The collection is a modern, ready-to-wear take on the film’s wild, grand costuming created by Oscar-winning Jacqueline Durran, who took an unconventional approach with non-period-accurate ensembles for the period piece. The 11-piece lineup includes white peplum blouses, lace-trimmed maxi skirts and prairie-style babydoll dresses — all feminine, bridal-inspired pieces nodding to Cathy’s pivotal wedding to Edgar in the gothic romance. Other pieces include graphic tees with Gothic lettering and illustrations featuring famous quotes from the Emily Brontë novel. In general, the capsule is chock-full of the bold reds, pastel pinks and brooding blacks that build out the film’s visual landscape. (Anna Tingley in Variety)

And now, the podcast:
Wuthering Heights: Passion, Violence, and Revenge on the Moors

Why does Emily Brontë's novel, Wuthering Heights, have such an enduring romantic association? Is Heathcliff a romantic lead, or an abusive antihero? Are the characters aspirational in any way, or irredeemable?
Join Dominic Sandbrook and Tabitha Syrett as they discuss all this and more.
