The ambitious art exhibition includes replicas of gowns from The Wizard of Oz, Gone with the Wind, and Legally Blonde

A hairdresser who "never got the grades for fashion college" took on the painstaking task of hand-stitching exact replicas of some of the most famous dresses from the silver screen.

Mark said: "I have always sewn as a hobby for as long as I can remember. From the age of 12 I started. My mum used to get a magazine called Essentials, which was a home magazine, and she used to give me the sewing pattern with a bedsheet or a pair of old curtains from a charity shop. "The following year it was the arcade's 125th birthday, and I was asked to do another exhibition with dresses from 1898, when the arcade first opened, to the year 2000."
