Joan's Maid Marian Costume


 

This site is dedicated to the memory of Joan Rice (1930-1997), so I don't need much of an excuse to write another article about our beautiful Maid Marian. In my last blog post, I featured a costume design for her, created by Michael Whittaker, that has been auctioned recently.




As you can see, Whittaker even tried to capture Joan's features in his illustration. 



John Nelson, a regular contributor to this site, has sent me some images of Joan wearing the finished costume. And doesn't she look stunning!

What else can we say about Joan Rice that hasn't been said already in her role as Maid Marian. She fitted the part perfectly and fans vote her their favourite Maid Marian. The costume looks good but at that time she looks good in everything she wears. A great film by any standards
