Throughout all the dance, Ginger tries to maintain a serious expression, but sometimes she looks at Fred and can't help but smile. So I made this gif of this cute moment.

Guys notice his smile. OMG! He was so in love, I can say for sure, it's the same silly smile as mine!

Not-a-Dress November

Roberta / Ginger Rogers as Lizzie Gatz as Countess Scharwenka

Ginger Rogers actually wore pants in movies more often than people remember. This outfit is like the feminine version of Bertie Wooster's white mess jacket. Even Jeeves wouldn't complain about this, though, I'm sure!

After the dance number, she briefly wears a jacket over the top, as seen in the last picture. Presumably it matches the wide-legged pants.

One Dress a Day Challenge

Monochrome July

Roberta / Irene Dunne as Stephanie

This movie ends with a giant fashion show, started off in grand style by Irene Dunne is this stunning fur-trimmed dress while she sings "Lovely to Look At." It really makes her look like a princess, which of course her character is. I love the way the enormous collar/wrap frames her head and shoulders like a cloud, and the contrast with the tightly buttoned waist and tight sleeves. The dress material also shimmers subtly when it catches the light as she moves.
