She loves playing dress-up: Kate Winslet gets into costume for A Little Chaos as she stars in yet another period drama


She loves playing dress-up : Kate Winslet gets into costume for A Little Chaos as she stars in yet another period drama  - Kate Winslet has starred in her fair share of period dramas and now she is at it again.

The 37-year-old was seen on the set of her latest movie A Little Chaos, dressed in traditional 17th Century costume.

Kate has had a lot of practice at acting in costume dramas and so it was no surprise to see her at such ease as she walked around in her uncomfortable outfit.

Here we go again: Kate Winslet was seen filming period drama A Little Chaos, in Surrey, England, dressed in full costume


Back to the past: Kate sported a rather large colourful hat as she mingled with cast and crew at the stately home

The mother-of-two wore a rather colourful hat as she wandered on the grounds of a stately home in Surrey, England.

The grand surroundings teamed with the long green coat that she was wearing gave the overall desired effect of time and place.

There was also a horse drawn carriage complete with driver to ferry Kate's character around the expansive grounds.

Old school: There was also a horse drawn carriage complete with driver to ferry Kate's character around the expansive grounds

Mixing it up: The 17th Century carriage was out of place with so many present day workers around it

One fine day: Alan Rickman, who stars in the film and also directs it, was seen surveying the area

A Little Chaos stars Winslet as a landscape garden designer in competition with a rival played by Belgian actor Matthias Schoenaerts.

The two green fingered impresarios compete for the right to design a fountain at the Palace of Versailles, France, for Louis XIV.

The project, which has taken five years to bring to the big screen, is directed by Alan Rickman.


Taking a closer look: Director Rickman was not in character, although he plays the role of King Louis in the film

Black box: The movie, which is set in Versaille, France, was being filmed in Surrey, England

The British actor is also starring in the movie as the legendary King Louis, and marks the second period drama that he has worked on with Winslet since 1995 hit film Sense and Sensibility. 

Kate has been enjoying something of an extended honeymoon since her December 2012 marriage to third husband Ned Rocknroll, 34, the nephew of Virgin tycoon Sir Richard Branson.

The couple wed in New York with the bride given away by her Titanic co-star Leonardo DiCaprio.

Kate has a daughter Mia, 11, from her first marriage to production assistant Jim Threapleton, and a son Joe, nine, with her second husband, Skyfall director Sam Mendes.
