The audience went wild and insisted on curtain calls for Gene Marshall after only the First Act of "Anna Christie"! Here she is in her initial costume that sets the tone for her character - a small town girl forced by circumstances to join a "house of ill-repute".
The 30's style long sleeved dress is provocative with a slit neckline and a slim skirt with a little flare at the slit hem. The silky fabric is a burnished gold herringbone design completely lined. Accents of red top-stitching are brought out further by her red slip-on high heels. Gene's matching print purse and hat (with its fetching side feather!) add beautifully to her role, as do her hoop earrings. She carried the navy cloth suitcase on-stage in her opening scene.
Our replica is lovely and made in the USA. The dress closes with snaps in back. You may purchase the complete costume including the dress, shoes, earrings, hat and purse or just the dress, hat and purse. The suitcase is also available.
