Adapted from the bestselling novel by Madeleine St John, Ladies in Black is an alluring and tender-hearted comedy drama about the lives of a group of department store employees in 1959 Sydney.

Critic Reviews:

• " This story of four women who work at a huge department store in Australia entertains due to Bruce Beresford's di­rection, the talent of Julia Ormond and the beauty of Rachel Taylor (looking like a young Grace Kelly). " – Jackie K. Cooper (jackiekcooper.com)

• " As a light, lovely-looking entertainment, Ladies in Black is a superlative chick flick that celebrates femininity and independence as mutually supportive qualities…the film also champions how Australia was built by a rich mix of cultures. " – Jim Schembri (3AW)

• " From the eye-popping colours of the period's fabulous floral dresses to the snapped suspenders and silk petticoats beneath, this is a film above all for women who love fashion. " – Lynden Barber (Limelight)
