POTA Civilian "Gown"




I purchased this "wicker" ape gown from Studio Props on eBay. It was designed by Colleen Atwood for Tim Burton's 2001 Planet of Apes. The writing on the inside says "Nobil." I'm guessing they meant "noble." It also says "Cut off gown." I'm not sure if that means they meant to cut more off it or if it is already a cut-off version of something longer.

I'll edit this post to include a screencap as soon as I find one!

RIP Ricardo Montalban


Ricardo Montalban has passed away at age 88.

I was never able to meet him but I loved seeing him in interviews. He was always very thoughtful, intelligent and well-spoken. Trek fans have lost their greatest villain in Khan.

Rest in peace, Mr. Montalban. You shall be missed.
