What was fashion in 1934? Comedy, con men, Orry-Kelly gowns, Busby Berkeley production numbers and, in their onIy screen pairing, two of cinema's greatest stars: William PowelI and Bette Davis. The story whisks audiences off to Paris with a fashion sharpie (Powell) and a designer (Davis) who hope to bootleg the hottest haute couture and fIood New York with knockoffs. The two stars make larceny seem Iike great fun. And Berkeley's numbers are astonishing. Gorgeous girls wearing Iittle more than ostrich plumes form a Web of Dreams, Venus with Her GalIery Slaves and The Hall of Human Harps, which prompted one indignant mother to write an articIe titIed I Don't Want My Daughter Growing Up To Be A Human Harp. |
