Many of these are more staged publicity shots but still lovely nonetheless.

Posted: 3/20/15 at 6:07amso sad that Gertrude Lawrence died during her run in the show. She was buried in her dress for " Shall We Dance ".

Posted: 3/20/15 at 7:34amLooking at these photos I can see how faithful the 1956 motion picture was to the original production in terms of design and style. It really is a beautiful show in every aspect.

^They removed the huge hoop skirt part under her dress and that lovely costume fit the coffin perfectly.

Posted: 3/20/15 at 6:24pmAh I see. That's a very strange story I had never heard before. It is a gorgeous dress though so why not.
