Oh such a wonderful time. My uncle Irv Cummings directed a lot to films of that Era.
Lots of good stories. Those ladies were not only stars but they wer re ladles.

Women dressed with mystery and allure...not naked butts

But their talent.

Alice Faye spent a night at their farm crying because she was terrified about doing a movie with Shirley.

I enjoy when actresses today wear vintage gowns: Maybe my favorite Oscar fashion moment was seeing Jennifer Garner in a tangerine colored vintage Valentino in 2004. That dress knocked my socks off. And I remember Garner saying that it didn't look like much especially compared to some more floofy designs coming her way. But then she put it on. Valentino is incredible.

This is a pretty long list of famous actresses in their youth, accepting their Oscars. The photos are B/W so we don't get the full idea of the beauty of the dresses on these beautiful actresses. It is interesting nevertheless.
Thanks for sharing this - I've really enjoyed looking through them. Some gorgeous dresses and I do wish we could see them in colour.
