#GwenLee

[recycledmoviecostumes]

We have very few props and costumes from silent films here at Recycled Movie Costumes, so when we get them, I find them to be very special.   This stunning gown, adorned with sequined “Peacock feathers” was made for Norma Shearer to wear in the film 𝑼𝒑𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒈𝒆. She wore it in both promotional images for the film, and the film itself.   The gown was also worn by Gwen Lee, who also appeared in the film 𝑼𝒑𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒈𝒆 as the character Dixie Mason. However, it does not appear that she wore the dress in the film, and it is likely that the dress simply did double duty for the purpose of promotion.   What do you think of this unique gown?
