Wearing your mantilla to the theatre!


Arriving in style: British actress Jean Simmons ('Ophelia'), arrives at the Odeon theater for the Premiere of Laurence Olivier's 'Hamlet' wearing a satin gown and a black lace mantilla over her head on May 7, 1948 in London.

She could get away with it in 1948. Might not work so well now.
