New P&P 2005 Photos
Keira Knightley Wavefront has posted more photos from the set of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE. Most of the new photos are located on the second page, including several new shots of the Bennet sisters and their mother. The AustenBlog staff is definitely relieved to see some pastel colors on those ladies!
EDITED to add: A few more new photos can also be found at thezreview.co.uk.

That looks better dress wise but I’m still not too thrilled with the hair.
Isn’t the second from right the one we thought was Lydia originally? I’m pretty sure that’s Jena Malone on the far right, so that must be Kitty.
Oooh, I like this one. (We want snogging, yes we do!!!)

Mags that is a WONDERFUL picture. Thanks for sharing it with us. I must say i like that picture as well. Perhaps this retelling will show the more romantic edge to the story. After all it was the Regency Era-NOT the Victorian Era.

Re: the Bennet ladies photo–WHY does Mary look more pulled together than Elizabeth? Surely Elizabeth should care more for her appearance than Mary? When I compare KK’s wardrobe to that of any other female character from this film, from what I’ve seen it comes off badly. Still no hat, as well. I read somewhere (perhaps on here?) that hats weren’t required for women at that time, but I don’t recall seeing any other female character from this film without one. I do love the pastel dresses on the other 4 Bennet women, though.
I like the picture you pointed out, Mags, and also hope for some kissing. I wonder why his shirt is hanging open though…hmm. Seriously though,
why is he running around the countryside half dressed? Wasn’t there some high-minded comment from the studio that they weren’t going to have a wet shirt scene? How is this that different?

I suspect that is actually a rehearsal shot. The coat Keira is wearing looks like a modern rain slicker type coat rather than a Georgian/Regency pelisse, doesn’t it? It would also explain Matthew’s dishevelment.
