Emma Thompson's Nanny McPhee Returns movie costume and cane on display...

In the 2012 sequel, Nanny McPhee Returns (or Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang as it was known in the U.K.), Emma Thompson reprised her role as the 'other' magical governess who unlike Mary Poppins has a more unpleasant face and demeanor, but gets results helping families in need nonetheless. The character and films are adapted from Christianna Brand's Nurse Matilda children's books.

I always find it's almost impossible to photograph black costumes, especially behind reflective glass, but I think you can see the fabric pattern and costume detail on this ensemble designed by Jacqueline Durran (although it's a shame her hat isn't part of the exhibit).

If you like this outfit photographed at Universal Studios Hollywood on January 20, 2015, you can also see Jacqueline Durran's Oscar-winning costumes from 2012's Anna Karenina on display here at Hollywood Movie Costumes and Props.

Plus I'm sure you'll enjoy all these original costumes and props from Mary Poppins on display too.
