...Federico Fellini is the Barnum of the avantgarde. In his apocalyptic La Dolce Vita, as in the wildly self-centered 8$, his flair for baroque theatrical effects seemed to be a secondary characteristic of genius, the manner but not the meat of it. In Juliet, his first full-length movie in color, effect is everything. Fellini puts on a psychic three-ring circus that promises profundity and delivers only a stunningly decadent freak show...

Dior's Marc Bohan must have robbed every hen house and bird cage on the Continent. He whipped up topcoats of grouse, full-length evening coats of grackle, blouses of speckled hen feathers and wove materials half in tweed and half in pin feathers...
