Depending on source this is a Showgirl costume for an early Paramount
Picture- some say the costume was most likely designed by Travis Banton
or Howard Greer
/ Other sources described this as Ziegfeld Follies Showgirl with Pearls
necklace and feathers’ headgear. Whatever the case her headdress is
awesome. ca. 1920′s
