Old Hollywood Fashion: Romance on the High Seas (1948)

May 31, 2024

Romance on the High Seas (1948)  stars Doris Day as Georgia Garrett and Jack Carson as Peter Virgil in a charming romantic comedy. The fashion in this film was just as much a character in this kooky love story as the actors themselves. This was Doris Day's first film so I didn't expect her fashion in the film to be anything spectacular but it was. In the twenty years that Day spent making movies there wasn't a film that she was in that didn't have her decked out in the most beautiful clothes. 

I had to share what Doris Day's character Georgia wore as well as another co-star, Janis Paige who played Elvira Kent. They both wore some beautiful and unique pieces from the 1940's. Have you seen Romance on the High Seas (1948) If so, what did you think about the fashion in this film?

Old Hollywood Headscarf Inspiration

Headscarves used to be a staple accessory between the 1940's and 1970's. It is such a versatile accessory that can be used in every season. It can be used to pull your hair back, cover your hair while you do some messy work, or used to hold your hairstyle in place while you run out to do errands. I wish headscarves would make a bigger comeback. Some modern clothing shops sell a few like Old Navy, J Crew, Free People, and Shein but it still isn't as popularly used like it used to be.

If you're like me and prefer to have your hair out of your face or dislike the sun beating on your head, headscarves a great alternative for a hair accessory.  

Here is some vintage headscarf inspiration from Old Hollywood:

Old Hollywood Fashion: White Christmas (1954): The Haynes Sisters

I think White Christmas (1954) is one of the best holiday films ever made. I know that is a huge declaration but between the cast, the humor, the feel good stories, the bromance, the music, dancing scenes, songs, and fashion-it literally has it all. I have shared many posts through the years about White Christmas (1954) but for this post I would love to share my favorite White Christmas (1954) costumes specifically worn by the Haynes sisters, Betty and Judy.

The great designer Edith Head was behind the designs of everything they wore. Head created pieces made with chiffon, rhinestones, velvet, and fur. She also styled the Haynes sisters in travel attire, dance outfits, and casual daywear for them to wear. The Haynes sisters we dressed stylishly in every scene in the film from their performance pieces, travel excursions, and sleep attire. Rosemary Clooney (Betty Haynes) and Vera-Ellen (Judy Haynes) wear each of Edith Head's designs like a dream. Which one of these costumes are your favorites? I honestly can't choose, I love them all.


Here are some other White Christmas (1954) themed posts I have written in the past:
