(MGM, 1953) Fuchsia dance costume completely covered with elaborate bugle beads, sequins and bugle bead fringe and worn by Ann Miller as “Lois Lane ‘Blanca’” in the memorable dance sequence of the film, Kiss Me Kate. It was also worn by Cyd Charisse in a promotional shoot (photo included). It features hook-and-eye and snap closure along the rear and bears an internal MGM dry cleaner’s tag handwritten, “14821 10.” The garment exhibits some fading and wear at the bodice and loss of bugle beads at the lower right back; otherwise, in very good condition. Reproduction sequined choker, neck strap and hair tie are included to round out the costume.
