Quick Facts for some Rita Hayworth Style

Rita's Favoured Colours - Rita was one of the more colourful classic stars, she of course suited white and wore a lot of it but she also wore lots of vibrant colours - red, purple and green being some of the most common.

Favourite Designers - Probably Jean Louis, a designer for Columbia Pictures. He created Rita's famous outfits in Gilda and various other movies.

Off-Duty Style - Rita was very different from her on screen characters, who were usually all glamour girls. In her real life Rita loved to wear slacks, a loose shirt and some flat, comfy shoes.

Although Rita loved to dress casually in real life she always knew just how to dress up when the occasion called for it.

Strapless and off the shoulder was one of the best styles for Rita, displaying her soft shoulders and long slender arms.

High-waisted items are a must, all of Rita's trousers, skirt and shorts sat high on the waist line and would have been fastened with a button - No elasticated waist lines because elastic can create some unsightly bumps.
