When a cinema star travels, her costume must be impeccably chosen. Claudette Colbert selected for a vacation trip the above dress in golden yellow wool crepe, with a novel type of drapery in the bodice and the skirt. The frock moulds the figure and has a draped sleeve. It was designed by Irene, with a pert turban of the same material with a provocative black veil. A clip of rubies set in gold adds a rich accent and matches a wide bracelet worn over one black glove. A glamorous touch is added by a baby leopard skin bag with topcoat to match.
