"The story of Aladdin was an invitation to a designer to lose himself in fantasy and dreams. 'Colouring and gold almost bordering on debauchery' commented The Studio on seeing some of the original studies for the costumes. Nielsen's method of costume design was very different from that of Edmund Dulac.... Nielsen was less meticulous about his preparatory work.... He knew instinctively what was important and what could be omitted in a design" [Colin White, op. cit.] -
