Dress to

The golden age of Hollywood may seem a distant memory now but the tales of one its most famous costume designers live on in the words and images of Orry-Kelly’s memoir, Women I’ve Undressed.

Here are some iconic pictures from the book and a glimpse at an era long gone

I

If you hanker after old Hollywood parties where Marlene Dietrich, Carole Lombard, Hedy Lamarr and Jean Harlow exchanged bon mots in Spanish costumes under camellia-strewn bowers, then Orry-Kelly’s Women I’ve Undressed: the Fabulous Life and Times of a Legendary Hollywood Designer is going to be right up your street.

Found in a pillowcase, this is the fabulous memoir of a legendary Hollywood costume designer. Orry-Kelly created magic on screen, from Casablanca and The Maltese Falcon to Some Like It Hot. He dressed all the biggest stars, including Bette Davis and Marilyn Monroe, winning three Oscars for costume design along the way.

Orry-Kelly grew up in the New South Wales town of Kiama, escaping as a naïve young artist to Sydney’s nightlife underworld, before chasing his dreams of acting in New York. There, he shared digs with another aspiring actor, Cary Grant, partying hard between auditions, eking out a living painting murals for speakeasies, before graduating to designing stage sets and costumes. When The Kid from Kiama finally arrived in Hollywood, his adventures had only just begun. Fearless, funny and outspoken, Orry-Kelly lived life to the full. In Women I’ve Undressed, he shares a wickedly delicious slice of it – here’s just a sample.

MARILYN MONROE IN SOME LIKE IT HOT “Fitting her for that scenestealing dress in Some Like it Hot. No one else could have done it justice. I had long admired Miss Monroe’s lovely face, her acting, but never her clothes. I did something I had never done before: I tested for the job. Armed with half a dozen sketches of Marilyn Monroe in the 1928 period, I descended on the wily Billy Wilder. I had been warned about Marilyn Monroe. She was difficult, she was always late, she was this and that.”

Orry-Kelly at a dinner party with Bebe Daniels

DINNER PARTY “One night I’d be on Vine Street with no tie, the next I’d be wearing black tie to Cole Porter’s or dining alongside the beautiful Bebe Daniels.

Dinners at Cole Porter’s were usually from four to eight or ten people.

His drawing room in the Towers in New York, with many of Linda’s – his wife’s – pieces, augmented with his own, had an atmosphere of Europe and its oldfashioned graces. There was the feeling of the days of literary salons. His Californian house was simple, but he lived in the same grand manner. One thing is certain, you would never meet a tedious or boring person at his table.”

BETTE DAVIS WEARING AN ORRY-KELLY ‘PRINCE ALBERT’ OUFIT “Warners wanted me to get the clothes underway for a forthcoming picture that would feature an up-and-coming actress called Bette Davis. Bette and I worked together on countless movies and became good friends, but there’s no denying it was hectic working for her. Often I jumped in my sleep. Twenty-five years later I found her, as always, the same loyal friend.”

There’s no denying it was hectic working for her. Often I jumped in my sleep

AVA GARDNER IN ONE TOUCH OF VENUS “Her multi-millionaire suitor at the time bypassed his usual diamond bracelet and gave her a Cadillac. Although the studio had two other designers under contract, Mr Goetz suggested I dress Ava Gardner in One Touch of Venus, but I’d have to take a cut in salary. There was a short scene in the script where Miss Gardner was supposed to go to the powder room; I suggested they save money buy not building that set. ‘Cut the can, don’t cut me’ I told them. Bill Goetz has a good sense of humour besides a good business head. He cut the can and I dressed the beautiful, talented Miss Ava Gardner.”

I did something I had never done before: I tested for the job JACK LEMMON AND TONY CURTIS IN SOME LIKE IT HOT “For Some Like it Hot, director Billy Wilder not only engaged me to dress Marilyn Monroe, but to make a couple of belles out of Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon.”

Touch

designer

Yves St Laurent have unveiled their summer offering and it’s absolutely gorgeous! The couture palette collector for eyes ties the bright blue of a hot summer horizon to the dusky browns and pinks of the sunset. The shimmery pink can be worn as a highlighter under the eyes or as a base shade across the entire eyelid. There are two variations of brown: a golden suede that recalls the soft beige of a sandy desert, perfect for sculpting the lid; and a deeper shade of brown, which pairs well with the pink or to define the lash line. The pale blue works well on its own as a highlighter or teamed with the bolder blue at the heart of the compact. This is a must for your holiday make-up bag!

Flower power With their Flowerbomb Precious Oil and Soap, Viktor&Rolf introduces a new and enchanting sensory experience. Voluptuous, sophisticated and infinitely luxurious, the Precious Oil leaves an opulent trail. The Flowerbomb floral bouquet is a love it/hate it kind of scent and more powerful and explosive than ever. The fragrance’s three iconic flowers: Jasmine, Cattleya Orchid and Centifolia Rose express their characteristics to the fullest. The soap is particularly pretty – shaped like a piece of jewellery, this pink delight revives the magic of the bath delicately perfuming the skin. It’s opulent but so worth it.

Vichy introduces its first face mask, Masque Peel Double Éclat, with volcanic rock to gently exfoliate and remove dead skin cells. The skin’s texture is refined and a fresh and luminous complexion is revealed REMINERALIZING THERMAL WATER: Re-inforces the skin’s natural moisture barrier, giving it time to regenerate and rebalance.

AHA (ALPHAHYDROXY ACIDS): To remove dead skin cells, using five natural plant extracts: blueberry, sugarcane, maple-sugar, orange and lemon.

VOLCANIC ROCK: To exfoliate and eliminate impurities VITAMIN CG+ MANNOSE: To brighten, hydrate and restore the epidermis of the skin.

* Contour & define Apply your contouring shade around the edges of the face, under your cheekbones and around your chin.

3

* Sculpt your lips Use the tip of the sponge to apply your pigment before using its side to spread and blend the powder to craft clever contours with graduated colour.

Laura Mercier Candleglow Soft Luminous Foundation, €48 Laura Mercier’s foundation bottles a candlelit atmosphere and glides onto the skin effortlessly to create a soft glow day or night.

Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation, €45 There’s a reason this foundation is an editorial favourite – its radiant, silky finish goes on undetected and lasts throughout the day.

There’s nothing sexier than bronzed, glowing skin – sans the sun damage, of course. When you get the look right, it’s so right, but get it wrong and you risk looking like you had a runin with an Oompa-Loompa (not pretty). Dust this silky powder on your face or all over your whole body and look like you spent a week hanging out on the sunny beaches (rather than in a drab, windowless office).

Get Beached in two universally flattering matte shades that provide sheer, natural-looking coverage.

Recovering from an especially late night? Overindulged in one too many margaritas?

With Afterglow 8-Hour Powder Highlighter from Urban Decay, nobody will ever know. Hide the aftermath of your bad decisions and give your skin a luminous, illuminated look with very little effort. Afterglow isn’t your average highlighter, it has a lightweight (yet luxurious) feel and a super-soft, creamy texture. Use a little or a lot.

Available in three shades suitable for any skin tone, Afterglow creates a glowy, strobed effect that lasts all day (even if you’re crashing at your desk by 3pm).

Mistakes you’re making while painting your nails – and how to fix them The mistake: Rushed, heavy-handed application.

How to fix it: When painting your nails, it’s important to allot enough time to do the job correctly. It’s absolutely crucial to allow the base coat, first polish application, second polish application and top coat to dry completely before moving on to the next step. The solvents in the polish need at least two minutes to evaporate and if you actually watch the nail for that period, you’ll see it go from having a really wet look to a dried-down, glassy look, which means the solvents are gone. If you paint on your next coat before the layer is fully dry, you will get peeling in sheets.

The mistake: Painting thicker coats of polish to get the colour as it appears in the bottle in one application How to fix it: When painting your nails, it’s ideal to make each layer very thin. Painting thick layers actually undoes the whole process and has a reverse effect. You end up over-polishing your nails, slowing down the entire application process and making them more prone to chipping and not drying properly. fashion 23
