EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1938, Maureen O'Sullivan exudes a charming and playful allure as she dons a "workaday outfit" designed by the esteemed costume designer Dolly Tree for her role in the film "Spring Madness," produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) studios. The ensemble, a refreshing departure from the glamorous gowns and elegant attire commonly seen on the silver screen during the 1930s, showcases a unique blend of jazz age flair and rustic charm. The lumberjack blouse, a bold and vibrant plaid spouting reds, blacks, and yellows, is the centerpiece of the outfit. Its casual yet stylish design adds an air of informality to the image, reflecting the carefree spirit of the era. The blouse is paired with a velveteen skating skirt, which adds a touch of femininity and elegance to the look. A pigskin belt cinches the waist, accentuating O'Sullivan's slender figure and adding a practical touch to the ensemble. Completing the outfit is a pancake tam adorned with lushly pompommed trim, which adds a whimsical and playful touch to the ensemble. The overall effect is a charming and unique combination of 1930s fashion trends, showcasing the versatility and creativity of Dolly Tree's costume design. In "Spring Madness," O'Sullivan plays a character who embraces the spirit of the jazz age, defying societal expectations and breaking free from the confines of traditional gender roles. This outfit, with its blend of practicality and playfulness, perfectly encapsulates the character's spirit and the era's fashion trends. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of Hollywood's golden age and the iconic fashion moments that defined it.
