Description:
The leading Hollywood fan magazine of the 1920s and 1930s. Photoplay offered readers portraits of their favorite movie stars and stories about their personal lives. The magazine played an important promotional function for the Hollywood industry, but its editors and reviewers could also be highly critical of Hollywood. Beginning in 1921, Photoplay bestowed its annual 'Medal of Honor' for the film readers voted as the best of the year. -- Eric Hoyt, 2011.

Fashion Winners On The Screen PERHAPS you have been doing it for years — perhaps it is a new thought. But don't you find that these animated fashion tips from the screen put a new zest into your shopping routine? There is something about seeing a costume in action that dramatizes the details. You want to try them out, adapt them to your own use. And that's the way I want you to use these monthly selections here. \ j WHEN you see Joan Crawford wear this smart outfit in "This Modern Age/' you will want to go home and try striped accents on your new white dress. There's a trick to that scarf, if you look closely. A piece of the stripe is sewed to the belt so that tucking the scarf under doesn't spoil the line. White gloves, white bag and perforated white oxfords dre perfect. COLOR contrast — everyone is doing it. And none more strikingly than Rose Hobart who wears this frock in "We Three.'' The dark top is navy blue to contrast with a pale pink skirt. Clever buttoning, don't you think? I like the large natural leghorn with its shallow crown and blue ribbon trim.
