I believe the beginning 5 minutes is the fashion show scene from "The Women" 1939, which was one of the first public intoductions to color film. A great movie.
Sadly they remade the movie "The Women" in the late nineties early 2000's if I am not mistaken, and it was utter garbage. A truly horrible remake they should have left this classic alone. The original is so much better.
The Women was also remade as a 1956 musical comedy titled The Opposite Sex, starring June Allyson, Joan Collins, and Ann Miller. I'm not sure if I ever saw this movie. I hope it is not as dismal as Lucille Ball's attempt to sing in the musical version of Auntie Mame. Remaking a classic is never a good idea. I didn't bother watching the 2008 remake as it got horrible reviews. It's like watching a drag queen do a horrible job of lip syncing your favorite song: you never get that vision out of your head when you hear the song going forward. :-)
Did anyone notice that they all looked...wonderfully different from one another? There was such a variety of models/women, just like the variety of styles. Today it's all disgustingly homogeneous and careless. Well, it was nice to visit back to a time when women, and men, actually took care of thier appearance.
Those red carpet dresses and gowns are so majestic and to die for. An era were women are valued for their true beauty natural charm and divinity. 🍀⚘🌷🌼🌻🌺🌹🏵💮🌸💐
This is simply BEAUTIFUL!!! Music is relaxing and fitting. Fashions are exquisite, reminiscent and gorgeous!!! I loved this!! This is what HOLLYWOOD looked like to me when I was a little girl... and it reminds me of the glamorous paper dolls I loved so much!! Thank you so much!
Classic, Old Hollywood. I'd wear most of the outfits in this video, today. Fashion has taken a beating in recent years. You don't have to show a lot of skin to be beautiful. I loved this.
Andrew Thornhill With ‘The Women’ sequence: The lavender & black & white ones from the ‘picnic’ tableau were my favourites- though the white & gold with the turquoise wrap is close, because I love turquoise & teal. Audrey is always stunning- I liked the understated glamour of her taupe suit.
@@vickyrubzow710 are you joking? Maybe for the rich, but back when my Mother was a teenager in the 40's the fabric you could get at any dept. or small clothing store was superior, quality fabric, then what we have now in stores, darling.
@@vickyrubzow710 have you ever seen or felt antique clothing. the designs and workmanship. made to suit all occasions. accessories. natural fibres. hand made. no comparison.
Sorry folks but I stand by my word. Yes, I've had my hands on a 1960's Givenchy cocktail dress. The textiles we have today are light, ethereal and superior. Faux fur and leather look and feel real. Craftsmanship and technology has evolved. It's ok.
I so wish I could go back in time to the 1940's and the 1950's and dress like these women, and live in a house from that era (like the Leave It To Beaver) house, and drive a car from those eras, and dress up just to go shopping, and dress up to cook dinner for the family....... I want to do it all. I feel so connected to these women and these eras....and I don't even know why. Every time I see these kinds of videos I get that feeling of being so connected. It's really hard to explain. I know someone out there knows what I'm talking about. Would anyone care to comment back to me? I know I can't be the only one who feels this way.
Beats the heck out of what you see on the runway and the red carpet today! No funky hip-displacement strut, either! No haunted eyes and expressionless faces.
A sumptuous tribute to all the great Hollywood costume designers. The creative editing is simply marvellous ; THANK YOU , Monique! ( I wish I had a pink heart and flowers emoticon to send you ).
Adrian was an amazing designer that shoul be created for glamourising Hollywood actresses in the 1930s. The Women is an amazing example of his work. Covergirl with Rita Hayworth is an amazing movie. And I just love Audrey Hepburn in Funny Face. She is my constant inspiration in my work and as a human being.
There was a lot of crime back then too. I mean film noir is all about that. And comedy is subjective as well, some screwball comedies aren’t that funny. I think each era has wonderful movies!
Thank you so incredibly much for sharing this! I would love to dress up like that every day! It was just heaven to watch! The fashion is incredibly magical! I wish they still made clothing like that now! I just love it! Thank you again!=;)
I'm glad that conehead hat look didn't last. I think I remember seeing this on TCM. Used to love that channel. Beautifully put together tribute. The last part all in pink was fabulous - I don't remember that from before. Good job, Monique.
The most incredible fashion show sequence is contained in the 1952 MGM film "Lovely to Look At." This was Adrian's last project and this 15 minute Paris fashion show sequence was directed by Vincent Minelli. It is in glorious technicolor with a backdrop of luscious Jerome Kern songs.
I am glad you like it. It's another unique tribute that I bring to those old golden times. As usual, I am sure there will be others who will imitate my work...
GRACIAS QUERIDA CLEA Obrigado por me dar a sua amizade sincera este ano, passamos muitos momentos inesquecíveis e sei que isso virá carregado 2014 muitos mais. Feliz Ano Novo 2014! de Luciajuana74♥
What has happened to fashion and beauty. Woman aren't tasteful anymore and clothing fashion as gone silent for 25 years. Up into the 90 each decade has its distinct look, but those days are gone. The beauty part of women is gone as well. Even though most of us could never afford high fashion it was fun to look at. When you see women on the red carpet they all look alike. Maybe Kate Middleton has go fashion but nothing new. I want to see one of those beautiful pink dresses at 11:46 on someone. Girls look up to women like Miley Cyrus, or Beyonce, God help us.
cuanta belleza en todos los sentidos..............................solo me pregunto porque hemos perdido ese punto tan elegante...........hoy dia...........teniendo todos los medios..disponibles.................sin embargo..nos falta el alma.........................sin alma somos nada........................
For my own reference, outfits that merely caught my eye; 0:36, 1:07, 1:42, 2:17, shoutout to the WoC at 3:38 that would have definitely done a better job at wearing the garment at 3:33, 4:35, 6:36, 8:33, 11:13
I've seen all of those movies. My two favorites were "Women" and "Funny Face"..Oh why can't we have women that dress these days? Pajama's and slippers are the best they can pull out.
ed, no, not all of us wear only slippers or pajamas (and what if we did?). There are many reasons why women don't dress like this nowadays. First, very few women in the world can afford tailored clothes. Second, a lot of us today find fur is not elegant but only cruel and useless (women used to wear a lot of fur back then). Other reasons are : - It is almost impossible (I'm speaking about France) to wear a skirt or a dress in the street without being harassed, men act as if they have never seen a pair of legs, it's pathetic. -We don't like to be whistled at and personnally I hate it, it's not flattering and it is usually what (some) men do when they are a group and women are walking alone, minding their own business. It only makes us want to go home and put on trousers for the rest of our life. - I'm tall and very thin, I will never forget the day I was passing a chinese restaurant, I was wearing a short skirt and three men passed near me, laughed and said "Give her a bowl of rice, she needs to eat" the three of them being so brave. Solution : Long ago I adopted the Katharine Hepburn way to dress (I don't know if it makes sense, english is not my first language), I don't know if she really said "I always dressed as if I didn't give a damn" but I've made that quote my mantra and it has solved a lot of problems. There are some well-cut trousers and after at least a decade of "skinny jeans", many (affordable) brands are back to large trousers, realizing that yes, it is elegant. whew! better late than never. I suppose you're a man, so just imagine for one minute what women's life is, sometimes. Men are maybe not as respectfull today as in the 40s and 50s.
@@isamm5579 bravo. Well said. Ed, in the 40s there was a clear definition between manual workwear and office wear. Only manual wear (jeans for the farm in this montage) was practical. Housewives had pinafores or housedresses for domestic work and expected to wear something prettier when going out. That allowed them to keep the pretty clothes in good order. Hats and gloves were de rigueur but are considered fussy now. Sold as a bid to improve practicality and comfort a lot of good tailoring has been lost to simplify manufacturing. Hopefully, the current interest in retro fashion will convince more to buy less and enjoy wearing a better quality wardrobe. Wolf whistles always happened I'm afraid. Thankfully, men are learning and I rarely hear it near young women unless they're already known.
Women have grown lazy, not all but most. I would love to dress like this every day however, I was born in the wrong era. Mind you, I still have extremely feminine things like jeweled brooches, lace hand fans, sun hats with wide brims, leather gloves with pearl buttons and an endless collection of heels and dresses. What's happens when I were such things other women typically look at me like, "whom does she think she is"? Funny... I live in North Dakota as well, not a mecca for Chanel, Carolina Herrera or Valentino so it's very difficult to find an occasion or opportunity to get all gussied up. There are days I just can't help but put on my best summer dress, the largest sun hat i have which extends 6" past my shoulders and some crystal chandelier earrings all while visiting my favorite store, Tractor Supply. 🤣🤣🤣 I'm 42 years old but remember watching re-runs of a great show named Green Acres. That is literally my life here North Dakota. Eva Gabor
I think most of these fashions could still be worn today. Gorgeous.
I would love to see the fashion show from Lucy Gallant.
they are still worn today but mostly by celebs and pageants.
I just LOVE these fashion films. If I was a cat, I’d be purring now.
Grace and elegance not seen in today's films. The couture of those bygone periods was impeccable. Thank you for posting.
The Golden Age of Hollywood, I suppose. It's all gone now. Beautiful memories. Thank you so much. 💖💖🌸🌹🌸🌹🌸🌹🌸🌹💖💖

And all the costumes were designed by Adrian 🖤 his gowns were amazing
What a fantastic movie that is - including the color fashion show.

Did anyone else gasp in awe at some of those beautiful creations?
Beautiful video, thank you for the Rita Hayworth part, I adore her.
Way too much beauty and style , those lovely ladies and superb music, thanks for helping make my day so much lovelier xx
When CLASS and BEAUTY were that..
such elegance and class - such a shame that it rarely exists these days
Now everybody wears athletic gear and majority don't workout.
Audrey was the most beautiful and elegant of all
Rachel Garber
I prefer to watch Rita Hayworth for her liveliness and fire 🔥
Absolutely stunning. Women have the best clothes. Classy presentation by you.
The material must have been to die for. Nothing like that these days.

That’s when Hollywood was “ HOLLYWOOD “ all you get now is nudity, crime, sex, and not so funny comedy
Better move back to 1939,holy ,holy ,holy angel .
There was a lot of crime back then too. I mean film noir is all about that. And comedy is subjective as well, some screwball comedies aren’t that funny. I think each era has wonderful movies!
La féminité dans toute sa splendeur!!! Quelle belle époque!!!

Stunning! Thank You So Much for Sharing! Stay Safe !!
This video is wonderful..
Music lovely , outfits attractive but the crazy hats and the fake hand has to go!
I believe the way you dress up , men treat you , that’s my opinion and if you have a different opinion , that’s fine too.
Faviola Bloisa everyone should be treated with respect no matter what 🙂
be nice to mention all the Audrey Hepburn gowns and dresses by Hubert de Givenchy ....
It really must've been an exciting time for women. These clothes were just gorgeous, feminine and enticing.
Wuauuuu qué hermoso!
Muchisimas gracias, Emilio.
Modesty how refreshing!!
So Cool...love it!! TY
a fost odata ca niciodata.....
Where did this come from???!!! I LOVE it! ❤❤❤❤ More, please...
Wonderful video and music ... Thank you, dear friend:)
Great video.
I want to wear all of these today!
eres tan bella como lo que te Embellece, tu fabrica de sueños........creo que te empiezo a querer.........Maravilloso
Multumesc. Ma bucur ca iti place si acest clip.

What movies ?
I was in heaven until I saw that black servant, ouch!
My reaction exactly. Up until then it had been camp, cheesy fun.
@@tonybennett4159 and dressed like a stereotypical mammy among the roses in bloom, quite stark wasn't it?
And they call it a golden age. More a shameful age.
All the models and actresses were white. So shocking by today's standards. It wouldn't happen now. Thank heavens times have changed.
@@a24-45 Then this surely should be the golden age of Hollywood.
thankyou
For me, when I think of beauty and class, this is what I see. Amazing dresses

Could it be by Adrian I wonder? (THE FIRST PART)
Yes, it's from the 1939 film, 'The Women'.
Yes one recognises the Garbo style! Great movie.
9:12 Audrey Hepburn looks so much like Natalie Woods!
(Or the reverse)
Wonderfull Hollywood Classic Fashion Show by Adrian, Irene maybe Edith Head
MOLTO MOLTO BELLO
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Intr-adevar, vremuri demult apuse...din pacate.
