This is not another hat fashion decreed by Dame fashion, but merely a charming way
This is not another hat fashion decreed by Dame fashion, but merely a charming way they have around the film studios of controlling a ladies carefully arranged hairdo as she sets forth from their hairstylists to the dressing rooms and the set. Here at Shepperton we see 17-year-old Ann South, of Heddon, newcomer to British films, with her elaborate period hairstyle well and truly in the next. Under a long-term contract with Sir Alexander Korda, Ann is at present appearing in " an ideal husband" now being produced at Shepperton.

This print captures the essence of 1940s fashion, showcasing a unique way film studios controlled women's hairstyles. In this image taken at Shepperton Studios, we see the stunning 17-year-old Ann South, a rising star in British films. Her elaborate period hairstyle is flawlessly preserved under an unconventional accessory - not just another hat dictated by Dame fashion but rather a clever tool employed by hairstylists to maintain her carefully arranged hairdo as she moves from their skilled hands to the dressing rooms and ultimately onto the set. Ann South has recently signed a long-term contract with renowned filmmaker Sir Alexander Korda, solidifying her promising career in entertainment. Currently gracing the screens in "An Ideal Husband" being produced at Shepperton Studios, Ann embodies both talent and beauty that captivate audiences worldwide. This photograph serves as a testament to the creativity and ingenuity prevalent within the film industry during this era. It showcases not only the intricate hairstyles popular among women but also sheds light on how these delicate creations were meticulously protected during filming. Preserved through time, this monochrome snapshot allows us to appreciate both Ann's elegance and resilience as she navigates her way through an industry where style meets artistry. This remarkable piece of history reminds us of the timeless allure of classic cinema and its ability to transport us back into an era filled with glamour and grace.
