The film, set in two very distinct time periods, presented a whole new challenge for the costume design team: they had to not only reproduce fashions of the Edwardian Era, but also the distinct look of the 1940s. For Anne of Green Gables: A New Beginning, Martha Mann was recommissioned to recreate the original pedigree and tonality of wardrobe she had established for the first two films. Secord was able to source genuine period clothing, such as Gilbert Blythe‘s WWI medical uniform, and the costumes that could not be pieced together of genuine articles, such as Anne’s volunteer uniform, were meticulously reproduced. Secord used both items that were made specifically for the film, and authentic vintage pieces. Ruth Secord took the reigns as costume designer for Anne of Green Gables: The Continuing Story, but stayed true to Mann’s initial vision. ![]() ![]() In celebration of the 100th anniversary of the publication of Montgomery’s original novel, the final film Anne of Green Gables: A New Beginning, was both a prequel and sequel to the original series, released in 2009. This completely original story, penned by Sullivan, aimed to bring Anne into a time frame and story line that had been developed over the 91 episodes of the spin-off series, Road to Avonlea. The third installment, Anne of Green Gables: The Continuing Story was created in 1998. In 1987, Producer and Director Kevin Sullivan reunited much of the original cast for the second film Anne of Avonlea (released in Canada as Anne of Green Gables: The Sequel) based loosely on Montgomery’s sequel novels, Anne of Avonlea, Anne of the Island and Anne of Windy Poplars. The first of the films: ‘Anne of Green Gables’ was originally developed as a TV mini-series and aired on CBC, PBS and The Disney Channel in 1985.
