Seven women and two girls pose on stage as bridal party in gowns and headdresses. Bride's dress is draped over runway.
Text from newspaper caption: ”Capacity audiences at six performances of The Times First Annual Fashion Show greeted with enthusiasm the bridal process, one of the entertainment features. Gorgeous gowns worn by Joan Crawford and her entourage in 'I Lived My Life,' an M.-G.-M. production not yet released, were modeled by society favorites of the younger set. Here is Miss Louise Brien the bride, and her retinue. From left to right they are Miss Honor Higgins, Mrs. Hilton McCabe, Miss Barbara McCartney, Miss Peggy Russell, Miss Brien, Miss Suzanne Alter, Mrs. Homer Burnaby, Mrs. John B. Browne, Jr., and Miss Louise Sterry, “ Titled: “Society and Film Folk Turn Out To View Smart Style At ‘Times’ First Fashion Show” [Los Angeles Times, October 13, 1935]
