The purple jacket goes on over the top, scarf visible at the neckline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Will this work for both the new Wonka film and the original book\/1971 movie?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely — the purple velvet coat and top hat are iconic across every version of the character.
