This costume was acquired by the production of Love the Coopers for use by Alan Arkin in his role as the lovable and soft-spoken family patriarch, Bucky. The multi-layered ensemble captures Bucky’s warm, understated style and includes a Lands’ End winter parka, a check-pattern dress shirt by Faconnable, coordinating trousers, suspenders, bow tie, boots and a soft plaid winter scarf, creating the full on-screen look seen throughout the film’s holiday sequences. Included with the costume is an original production-used wardrobe tag identifying the outfit for “BUCKY – Alan Arkin,” complete with scene numbers on the front and extensive handwritten costume notes on the reverse, detailing every garment exactly as prepared for filming. This tag provides exceptional provenance and a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse into the wardrobe department’s continuity process. A charming and complete character ensemble from a beloved holiday ensemble film, and a fantastic opportunity for collectors of Oscar-winning actors, seasonal cinema, or character-driven wardrobe pieces.
