barbarastanwyck:

_{Elizabeth Taylor wearing an Edith Head designed dress in A Place in the Sun, 1951.}

_{The dress had six layers of white net over a pale mint green taffeta , studded with single velvet violets, and a bodice covered in white velvet violets with green centers. It caused a sensation among prom-going young ladies that year. Manufacturers recognized the fact and had copies of the gowns ready for purchase in stores at the time of the film’s release.}
