The Women Fashion Show

I finally had a chance to watch the 1939 version of The Women yesterday. What a great film! And the cast is entirely women! For a lover of old Hollywood movies, I'm surprised I hadn't seen it before.

One of my favourite things about old movies is the fashion and this clip is just a perfect example of how Hollywood's costume departments influenced womenswear back in the day.

You can read about the designer Adrian here.

(What's really interesting is that this is the only colour segment in the movie.)
