First published in 1981, In A Glamourous Fashion is not only a
fascinating look at film fashion portraying the glamour and glitter
of Hollywood's heyday; but is also an invaluable reference source
for any student of the film, of costume, or of the social history.
It documents some of the best work of the designers - names like
Adrian, Cecil Beaton, Edith Head - but tells the often-dramatic
story of their careers and their relationships with legendary stars
such as Garbo, Dietrich, Monroe and many more. Here are the stories
behind the screen's most famous costumes: Walter Plunkett's
'curtain dress' for Scarlett O'Hara; the red Jezebel gown
Orry-Kelly designed for Bette Davis; the slinky back satin sheath
Rita Hayworth wore in Gilda; and the extravagant gown - 15, 000
worth of mink - worn by Ginger Rogers in Lady in the Dark. The
photographs and original sketches are an essential and decorative
complement to the text; there is an index, bibliography, and a full
list of Academy Award winners for costume design.
