Look for the woman in the dress.
If there is no woman, there is no dress.

Oh Emily, that has to be one of my my favorite b&w photos of all time! It is so lovely and utterly charming..and the dress is gorgeous! It reminds me of the vogue pattern you're planning on sewing, it's 50's style right?

Oh, do tell me who the lovely Debbie Reynolds is. Perhaps an actress, or model? (Please forgive my ignorance but I can't seem to place her) Does she play in a movie?

I thought this dress Debbie Reynolds is wearing looks almost exactly like the vogue pattern I'm making, too...I've loved this photo for a long time and had been hoping I could find a pattern for one like it! Actually, my working on my pattern was what inspired me to post this photo! ☺

Debbie Reynolds is a movie star. She starred in Singin' in the Rain opposite Gene Kelly and many other movies from the '50's & '60's.

Isn't she adorable?

Ah! I thought I vaguely recognized her:). She is so adorable! I loved her in "Singing in the Rain". Would you perhaps know of any other films she plays in that would be worth watching?

...yes, yes, we always come to your blog for movie inspiration. That is, b&w movie inspiration;). hehe.

Thank you for telling me all about it! It's such a beautiful photo!

Yes, I do know of several others!

"Tammy and the Bachelor" is a cute movie co-starring Leslie Nielson, and "Mary, Mary" was cute and enjoyable, too.

Love,
Emily
