Dolly Dressing Sisters 1927


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite and camaraderie for the legendary Dolly Sisters, Rosie and Dottie, backstage in 1927. The sisters, known for their vaudeville acts and dazzling costumes, are seen here in their dressing room, surrounded by an array of extravagant garments, makeup, and the trappings of their theatrical life. Rosie, on the left, is deep in thought, her brow furrowed as she examines a costume, while Dottie, on the right, looks up from her mirror with a playful expression, her eyes twinkling with mischief. The sisters' outfits reflect the glamour and flair of the era, with sequins, feathers, and beading adorning their dresses and hats. The dressing room itself is a cluttered but cozy space, filled with the detritus of performance: wigs, makeup, props, and costumes. A small table is strewn with cosmetics and jewelry, while a hatbox and a stack of costumes are piled in the corner. In the background, a mirror reflects the sisters' reflection, adding a layer of depth and intrigue to the image. This photograph offers a glimpse into the world of the Dolly Sisters, a world of glamour, performance, and sisterly bonding. It is a reminder of the behind-the-scenes moments that often go unseen, and the importance of taking a moment to rest and recharge before stepping out onto the stage once more.
