Myrna Loy in I Love You Again (1940)
Elegant simplicity distinguished this evening gown designed by Dolly Tree for Myrna Loy in I Love You Again (1941). It depended for its style importance on the beautiful draping of the material, with its long folds of the white crepe falling from the shoulders to the floor. Solid gold bead embroidery formed the shoulders and tiny upstanding collar. The styling was very reflective of Dolly Tree?s other creations at the time such as her gown for Rita Johnson in Congo Maisie (1940). Date: 1941

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1941 film "I Love You Again," the elegant and timeless beauty of Myrna Loy is on full display as she dons a stunning evening gown designed by the renowned costume designer Dolly Tree. The dress, created by MGM Studios, exudes sophistication and glamour with its simple yet effective design. The gown is made of white crepe fabric, which falls gracefully from Myrna's shoulders to the floor in long, elegant folds. The material's subtle sheen and flowing lines add to the dress's ethereal quality, making it a true standout. The gown's most notable features are the solid gold bead embroidery that adorns the shoulders and the tiny upstanding collar, which add a touch of glitz and glamour without being overpowering. Dolly Tree's design for Myrna Loy in "I Love You Again" is reminiscent of her other creations from the era, such as the gown she designed for Rita Johnson in "Congo Maisie" (1940). The designer's ability to create elegant and sophisticated looks was a hallmark of Hollywood's golden age, and this photograph is a testament to her talent and vision. The jazz age influence is evident in the gown's sleek lines and modern cut, while the 1940s fashion trends are reflected in the use of beadwork and the overall sense of glamour and elegance. This photograph captures a moment in time when Hollywood was at its most glamorous, and Myrna Loy's timeless beauty and Dolly Tree's elegant design come together to create an image that is as captivating today as it was over 80 years ago.
