EDITORS COMMENTS
Myrna Loy, the epitome of Hollywood glamour, radiates elegance and allure in this stunning image from the 1934 MGM film, "Stamboul Quest." Dressed in a breathtaking white gown designed by the renowned costume designer Dolly Tree, Loy's timeless beauty is accentuated by the clever shirring on the sleeves and waistband. The floor-length sash-ties in a darker material add an element of mystery and intrigue, making this an iconic look of the 1930s. The jazz age was in full swing during the production of "Stamboul Quest," and Loy's character embodied the sophistication and style of the era. The film, which also starred Ronald Colman and Ian Hunter, was a thrilling adventure set in the exotic and mysterious lands of Stamboul. MGM Studios spared no expense in creating a visually stunning production, and Loy's costumes were no exception. Dolly Tree, one of the most influential costume designers of the time, crafted a wardrobe for Loy that was both fashionable and functional, allowing her to move gracefully through the film's action-packed scenes. This image captures Loy at her most captivating, with her piercing gaze and the delicate draping of her gown. The intricate details of the costume, from the shirring to the sash-ties, are a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the time. The result is an enduring image of Hollywood glamour and the timeless allure of the 1930s.
