Rita Hayworth’s gorgeous strapless bustier dress from the 1942 film My Gal Sal, made of beautiful aubergine purple brocade fabric and decorated with gray tulle netting on the back. A small tag is sewn inside with the ink notation, “R. Hayworth,” and a stamp, “32837.” Sleeves were later altered and the originally bright blue fabric has faded. Fraying and cuts to the inner lining, otherwise fine condition. Accompanied by a glossy 10 x 8 still from the film showing Hayworth with co-star Vincent Mature, a 10.25 x 14 magazine ad, and a My Gal Sal insert poster (14 x 36). My Gal Sal became one of the most successful 20th Century Fox films of 1942, and earned an Oscar for Best Art Direction—Interior Decoration for its stunning designs portrayed in Technicolor. An elegant and absolutely exquisite gown from one of Hollywood’s timeless beauties. The James Collings Collection.
