Swapping color swatches for pattern, this week's movie stills are from Cecil B. DeMille's 1920 comedy Why Change Your Wife? featuring the gorgeous and incredibly adorable 18-year old Bebe Daniels. Although I hated the sexist and anti-woman message, the visual beauty of this film can't be denied. Stylistically post-art nouveau, the fashion and furnishings are still overloaded with ornamentation and geometric patterns. I really love how over-the-top glamorous everything looks. The variety of patterns seems never ending-- there's something different on every layer clothing and surface of the environment!
