Hollywood Costume: Glamour! Glitter! Romance!

New York: Abrams/ Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1976. Perhaps the ultimate coffee-table book- a beautiful, elaborate production with fabric covered boards, and printed clear plastic dust jacket- all in very good condition--unusual for a book that doesn't age too well.

DeMille, Marlene Dietrich, Erte, Greta Garbo, Rita Hayworth, Edith Head, Audrey Hepburn, Vivien Leigh, Bob Mackie, Walter Plunkett, Irene Sharaff, Elsa Schiaparelli, Rudolph Valentino, etc., etc. Light shelf wear.
