See more details below…\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLABEL INFO: After almost 2 decades designing costumes for film at MGM Studios in Hollywood, Adrian left and opened his own clothing store in Beverly Hills. He created two retail lines: 'Adrian Original' for special couture creations and private clients, and 'Adrian Custom', his off-the-rack designs. A wildly popular and influential designer, Adrian was famous for introducing the quintessential ‘Joan Crawford’ silhouette of padded shoulders with slim waist jackets and dresses in his Hollywood film projects. He is largely credited with forging much of the glamour attributed to the many film stars he worked with, including Jean Harlow, Joan Crawford, Greta Garbo, Norma Shearer, Greer Garson, Katherine Hepburn, Jeanette MacDonald, Loretta Young, Myrna Loy, Luise Rainer, Hedy Lamar, and Lana Turner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCONDITION:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVery good condition. There is some very minor fading at the top of the shoulders - hard to see and doesn’t show much in photos due to the lighting reflections. The top button near the collar is slightly bigger than the others, and is difficult to get through it’s buttonhole. I believe this one button is plastic so it's likely a replacement. Visually it’s exactly like the other buttons, just a tad bigger. The lining is also in very good condition, including the sleeves, with no flaws noted.
