This beautiful gown, dyed with a gradient of white to red ending in a lightly feathered skirt, was first worn by Ann Miller as Nadine Hale in the 1948 classic film 𝑬𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒅𝒆.   Shockingly, this immediately identifiable costume was worn again in the 1950s 𝑻𝒉𝒓𝒆𝒆 𝑳𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒍𝒆 𝑾𝒐𝒓𝒅𝒔, where Gale Robbins wore it as Terry Lordel.   This piece, designed by Irene, was one of the many costumes purchased by Debbie Reynolds at the MGM auction of 1970. After failing to find a permanent home where the costumes could be on display, Reynolds ultimately sold her collection in three separate auctions through Profiles in History (now @heritageauctions).   I’ve written a little bit more about the costume collection and the sales on our auctions at Bit.ly/PostEd086
