Cover Girl

Cover Girl (1944) is one of Rita Hayworth’s most famous movies. I love watching it, despite the fact that I dislike the whole “stay in your place and don’t try to be special” message. What makes it great are the amazing fashions and colours, and the wonderful Eve Arden!

There’s a definite style to the cover girl fashions, lots of sharp suits and spectacular hats in saturated colours, and I’ve been very inspired by the look lately.

So many amazing outfits! I love all the scenes from the magazine office.

These outfits are just perfection.

The scatter brooches, the cuffs, the hats, chartreuse and magenta against black!

Amazing! I love all the colour schemes. I can’t decide which outfit is the best.

This woman is so beautiful! She only has a small part and I don’t know who the actress is though.

Her outfit! I’d like to make a velvet ribbon accessory thing like that.

I love the sparkly top (or necklace?) under her jacket.

Look at the beautiful planter!

Wonderful outfit. The buttons and brooches are like candy or resin.
