The story was moved up in time from 1902 to 1910, in part at the behest of costume designer Sandy Powell. Fashion evolved significantly between those eight years, and Powell felt that the 1910 silhouette would help set this movie apart from the movies made by Merchant-Ivory (which are often set in the 1900s). Powell's efforts and subsequent unique designs earned her an Oscar nomination for Best Costume Design, but like most other nominated movies in 1997, lost to Titanic (1997).
