Wes Anderson’s now-classic film, The Grand Budapest Hotel, has a little bit of everything — humor, tragedy, action, adventure, and of course, beautiful sets and costumes. Set in a fictional European country, the story involves a legendary hotel concierge, his trusted friend and lobby boy, and the theft of a priceless painting.

The film features a large ensemble cast, so rather than focusing on specific characters, I drew my inspiration from a few motifs that appear again and again in the film. Keep reading to learn more, and to see a few outfits inspired by The Grand Budapest Hotel:

The Hotel

In its 1930s heyday, The Grand Budapest is an ornate hotel with a dedicated staff led by the dashing concierge, Monsieur Gustave. The gorgeous resort is swimming with professional polish and luxe details.

For a look inspired by the hotel and its staff, go for something professional, but with bright colors. A red and purple combination would just be perfect — how pretty is this red top and purple pant pair? Don’t forget to include accessories that also fit with the look, like gold detailed earrings and purple lipstick.

Mendl’s

In the film, Mendl’s is a bakery that makes the “Courtesan au Chocolat,” a beautiful pastry that is always wrapped in their signature pink box (there are even instructions on how to make your own!). The bakery and its pastries are all in soft, pretty pastel colors, which can easily be translated into spring fashion.

For a Medl’s inspired look that’s still of-the-moment and fresh, stick to a pastel color palette and vintage styled clothing. A dress with puffed sleeves and a collar is perfect as the centerpiece of the look. Accessorize with tiny details and baby pink pumps. This look is the perfect mix of vintage-inspired and modern, perfect for paying a visit to your own favorite bakery this spring (and taking some photos for Instagram).
