EDITORS COMMENTS
Miss Isabel Jeans, a renowned British actress of the 1930s, is depicted in this stunning studio fashion portrait wearing an extraordinary cocktail or cinema gown designed by Peggy Morris. The portrait, which originates from A Portfolio of Fashion, a weekly feature compiled by Madge Garland for The Bystander magazine in 1933, showcases Jeans' impeccable sense of style and the innovative designs of the era. The gown, carried out in a rich and vibrant shade of aquamarine, is made of heavy wool crepe, a material that was popular during the 1930s for its luxurious texture and drapability. The aquamarine chiffon blouse that accompanies the gown adds a delicate touch to the overall ensemble, creating a beautiful contrast between the heavy crepe and the light, flowing chiffon. The design of the gown is truly unusual for the time, with its bold color and unconventional fabric choice. Peggy Morris, a talented designer known for her unique and avant-garde creations, expertly balances the heaviness of the crepe with the lightness of the chiffon, resulting in a gown that is both elegant and daring. Miss Jeans' expression in the portrait exudes confidence and sophistication, making it clear that she is a woman who is not afraid to make a statement with her fashion choices. The portrait, along with the accompanying fashion illustration, serves as a testament to the fashion trends of the 1930s and the innovative designers who shaped them.
