Virginia Grey and Mickey Rooney in The Hardys Ride High
The Hardys Ride High had no on-screen costume credit. However, the MGM press kit states that Adrian created Cecilia Parker?s gowns. Also, a costume for Joan Crawford in Mannequin (1937) was adapted for the chorus. Virginia Grey?s gowns show hallmarks of Dolly Tree?s style. In particular, one outfit featured her adaptation of Italian Renaissance embroidery that she was using at the time and so it is likely that Dolly Tree created Virginia Grey?s gowns. Here she is seen with Mickey Rooney. Date: 1937

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the timeless glamour of Hollywood's golden age, featuring the charismatic duo of Virginia Grey and Mickey Rooney during the filming of "The Hardys Ride High" at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios in 1937. Though the press kit for the film credits Adrian with designing Cecilia Parker's costumes, it is believed that Dolly Tree was actually the mastermind behind Virginia Grey's stunning outfits. Known for her innovative use of Italian Renaissance embroidery, Dolly Tree's distinctive style is evident in this elegant ensemble worn by Grey. The intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship of the gown reflect the height of 1930s fashion, showcasing the glamour and sophistication of the era. With a jazz age energy and youthful charm, Mickey Rooney adds to the playful atmosphere of the set, making this image a true representation of the magic that unfolded behind the scenes at MGM during the thirties.
