Trivia: Singer Chris Isaak has a small cameo as the S.W.A.T. team commander.
Trivia: In the movie poster, the skull of the moth is made of seven naked female bodies. The image of the "skull orgy" originated in a portrait photograph by Philippe Halsman of Salvador Dali, entitled Salvador Dali In Voluptate Mors. The photo itself was inspired by surrealist Dali's Female Bodies as a Skull painting.
Trivia: "The Silence of the Lambs" has gained some infamy in recent years as an example of the "Mandela Effect" - a phenomenon where large groups of people share the same false memory. Specifically, many people remember Hannibal Lecter delivering the specific line "Hello, Clarice" when she comes to visit him. But he actually never once says this line in the film.
Trivia: Hannibal Lecter and Clarice Starling only appear in four scenes together throughout the whole film.
Answer: In Frederika's bedroom Clarice sees the dress being made and recognises that the pieces of material are the same shape as the pieces of skin missing from the victims' bodies. In the bank, where Clarice meets Frederika's friend, Stacy tells her the address of 'Mrs Lippman' whom Frederika used to work with. Presumably Buffalo Bill is related to, or is, Mrs. Lippman since that is where Clarice finds him.

He's not Mrs Lippman. He did, however, kill her. As Clarice chases him through the cellar, the woman's decomposing body is in a tub.
