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.

THERE'S FASHION NEWS IN HATS, SLEEVES AND NECKLINES THIS SEASON PORTRAIT of a young lady waiting for the first warm day to wear a new suit! This one of Miriam Hopkins' is cut on simple, tailored lines, but looks feminine. Probably because the tweed is woven in a soft, irregular pattern. A small rolled turban, in the same blackand-white tweed, has a piece of ribbon tied in front. Note that the jacket is belted and has pockets. Trick flare on those handsewn gloves. Seen in Two Kinds of Women."' J THIS white silk blouse should never be covered by even the best looking jacket. Miriam Hopkins wears it under the suit I described above. Don t miss two big details you'll be seeing on both frocks and blouses. The neckline tied high with a big bow. And full sleeves caught in at the wrists by smaller bows. THE whole design of clothes is simpler, and trimmer. Less period stuff — and more really wearable things. You ll notice this trend in new screen costumes, especially. Feminine details still linger because they are becoming. For instance, this collar on a black crepe dress worn by Miriam Hopkins in "Two Kindsof Women.'" It's organdie, all done up with little flowers and a big bow. The same flower idea is repeated on bell sleeves. Cire ribbon, finely shirred, makes a smart turban trim, I think.
