Rhonda Fleming was an American film and television actress and singer. She acted in more than 40 films, mostly in the 1940s and 1950s, and became renowned as one of the most glamorous actresses of her day, nicknamed the "Queen of Technicolor" because she photographed so well in that medium.

This magnificent gown, skillfully created by costume designer Jean Louis, was first worn in the 1953 film 𝑺𝒆𝒓𝒑𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑵𝒊𝒍𝒆 🐍 by Rhonda Fleming as Cleopatra. A decade later, the gold, purple, and bejeweled creation reemerged in the 1963 epic 𝑱𝒂𝒔𝒐𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑨𝒓𝒈𝒐𝒏𝒂𝒖𝒕𝒔, donned by Nancy Kovac as Medea. 😮   This remarkable piece was once part of Debbie Reynolds’ costume collection before it was auctioned in December 2011!   Want to know what it sold for? 💸 Visit our site to learn more!

What I didn't care for was everything made in those days was black and white, very hard black and white too, there was nothing really pretty about it, even my auburn hair became jet black. -#RhondaFleming https://www.instagram.com/p/B_czYYRhPkb/?igshid=1c1oby4oed4s4
