Thank you for sharing the close-ups of those gorgeous costumes! Watching White Christmas several times is an essential part of our family's Christmas holiday season, and it never gets old! The music is uplifting, the acting and dancing are top-class, and the costuming with all of those incredible details is absolutely amazing. I have been a fan of Edith Head for decades (yes, I'm that old), and White Christmas is a stellar display of her work. I typically start watching White Christmas again mid-year when I start working on Christmas decorations and gifts. Singing along with the wonderful Erving Berlin songs and thinking about Christmas in Vermont with "all that snow" helps me feel a little Christmas spirit while it's summer in SE Texas and 98⁰F in the shade. 🎄

Hollywood costumes were things dreams were made of. My mom was a professional dress maker. She made wedding dresses for Bergdorf’s in NYC. She’d look at these old films and study the gowns, dresses, suits. She could sew without a paper pattern. She taught me to sew, the trouble was we could rarely find those fabulous fabrics. Occasionally in the city we’d stumble across a magnificent remnant and make something grand. I love the old films.

What fabrics were they? Silks, cotton and wool? Edith Head was an American treasure.

@ - Mom loved natural fabrics. NEVER POLYESTER. Silk, raw silk, wool, linen, beautiful brocades. A simple cut looks great with a fabulous piece of fabric. Her wedding gowns were spectacular. In her sewing room, she’d lay the fabric out on the floor. She’d sit with her shears in hand and just study the material. We never bothered her when she was doing that. In her head, she was laying the dress out…piece by piece….then we’d hear her scissors go. She was good. She taught me to be meticulous with my sewing. The reverse side was as neat as the outside. I still love to sew.

I JUST now fell upon this video !!!! I Can NOT believe that these costumes are still preserved and so beautifully !!! I am 66 yrs old,, I have been watching this film every year during the holidays from the time I was roughly 5 !!!! my 2 sisters and I used to try to figure out that "pretzel twist" during the scene "the best things happen while you're dancing" we would drag my older brother into the family room and make him try to figure out that "twist" where everyone would change partners............ what wonderful memories. !!!!!!!!!!!!! The Best Things,, happen while you're dancing,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

My ABSOLUTE favorite Christmas Movie. The RED gowms at the end are simply GORGEOUS! I always thought if I was younger and getting married, I would dress exactly like Vera did at the end of the movie. I have watched White Christmas every year since I was little. Ironically, I was born in 1954, so this movie holds a special place in my head. Thanks for posting all the costumes Vera and Rosemary wore. A very special movie indeed!!

Edith Head was a genius, but she was a designer and didn’t sew at all. Her sketches were handed over to seamstresses who had to figure out how to turn her designs into reality. I will be looking for those sequined underlays on the “Sisters” dresses next time I watch the movie!

White Christmas is just one of those epic, beautiful and timeless holiday movies. I bet everyone loved being a part of the cast and being on set. ( Hope so 😊 ). God bless you Rosemary, Vera Ellen and Danny Kaye for the hard work done in the dance numbers and other scenes. ( Not a fan of Bing Crosby / behind the scenes ). Rest in peace . . . Rosemary, Vera, Danny, cast. and crew of White Christmas. America needed this beautiful film to cherish. 🌫️🌨️✨🕊️🐩🫓🍚✨🎄🎄🎄🌨️✨ 🌨️🤍❄️❄️❄️☃️☃️☃️❄️❄️❄️🤍🌨️

The lilac dress Rosemary is wearing when they first meet - gorgeous. And her black "Carousel Club" dress is stunning. Would have loved a closer look at the red Christmas dress that was there among the costumes. Thanks for showing these. Old Hollywood is just so beautiful

Caren, this was wonderful, and of course delivered with your usual enthusiasm and joy for theses things. -Always find it fascinating, the lives and true humanity behind the dazzle. It's particularly rewarding when we learn of the fun, goodness, satisfaction, altruism, etc., a particular soul did express or get to experience in their lives (matching, sometimes, the beauty of their public expression), as well, of course, the sometimes sadder or darker details, which puncture the dazzle. We all prefer the happier stories. My sense is Rosemary's life was, indeed, a rich and terrifically satisfying one - albeit, I'm sure, challenged and sadder in spots. I think she was - as some others in her family seem to be - up for a vibrant, empowered karma - handsome people, magnanimous experience.

Yes, her nephew George Clooney certainly is a testament to someone who has used his celebrity to help others. He has also donated a few items that are in the museum, which I’ll cover in a later video, but it’s so sweet because he only donates a few things because he wants the museum to be about Rosemary, not about him. She did have a hard life. She also used that to help others - I once saw her in concert at a benefit for heart health. I haven’t read her autobiography, but I’m going to soon because her life was very interesting. Once again, I appreciate you watching my videos! Thank you!

I was in Kentucky last fall and saw this exhibit. It was fabulous. I also enjoyed the tour of Rosemary’s home that the exhibit is displayed in. The tour guide shared that the dress worn in the sisters act we’re in storage somewhere. To answer your question Vera, Ellen‘s dress partially had to be remade. When they found the dresses, for some reason, the top part of Vera Ellen’s dress was missing. 🤷🏻‍♀️ They had to find lace that would match the original design. That is why the color is brighter. However, if anyone gets a chance to see the display, it’s well worth the time if you’re in the area.

Omg my favorite movie I watch every Christmas. I have some information on that incredible black dress Rosemary Clooney wore in that Love Didn’t Do Right By Me number. I had the privilege of talking to Debby Boone after a concert (She’s married to one of Rosemary’s sons) and I asked her where is the black dress from the movie? She said there was another daughter in law that got it but she is no longer part of their family so no one knows where it is now.

I watch that movie every holiday season. Movies back then had style, class, talent, good music, great acting, a strong plot line, some suspense, and a satisfying ending. Today movies are just trash----representative of the sewer that's Hollywood.

Thank you so much for this. My absolute favorite Christmas movie. ❤🎄 I wonder if Debbie Reynolds had any of the films costumes in her collection?
@CRF-ds7ie
@CRF-ds7ie Жыл бұрын
I believe she did - in fact, according to Vera-Ellen‘s best friend, there was a bit of a conflict after Vera-Ellen died because Debbie Reynolds and her helpers came in and wanted/took the costumes that Vera-Ellen still had. I don’t know if it’s true, but I heard it from several sources. Yikes! I do know that Debbie Reynolds admired Vera-Ellen greatly, because she told me so when I met her once. Thank you so much for watching the video!

Do you know Scott? I’ve only met him, but he’s a very good friend of one of my good friends! Yes, and in this case, I think she actually went in and took them herself - didn’t purchase them. It was very hard on the heirs, who are not “Hollywood” people. Very sad.

It is a permanent display, but it sometimes travels. I know that sounds like it doesn’t make sense but normally it’s there at the Rosemary Clooney Museum. You just want to call them before you go to make sure it’s there at the time you want to go visit. Thank you so much for watching!

My husband and I just watched White Christmas again. We have watched it every year at Christmas and have for the entire 45 years of our marriage. It is our favorite Christmas film and this was a delight to see these costumes. In your video. I’d love to know where the Rosemary Clooney house is located.
