Dolores Gray wears triple bouffant dress in "The Opposite Sex"

Uploaded by mdolivetti on Sep 2, 2009
Dolores Gray wears this oh so beautiful fantastic triple bouffant dress where she plays the sharp-tongued Sylvia Fowler. Helen Rose was the costume designer. This clip of Dolores is same scene posted earlier from a VHS but this was taken from a DVD (bought on ebay but box had no source). There is some more footage on this clip. Not sure how much better resolution it will appear on Youtube. From the DVD, it can be seen Dolores is wearing a white all-in-one bra/girdle under her dress which looks like a semi-transparent black lace on 'nude' color fabric (I am seriously considering and working on making a dress like this for me).
Cast includes, June Allyson, Joan Collins, Dolores Gray, Ann Sheridan, Ann Miller, Joan Blondell, Agnes Moorehead. Also Leslie Nielsen, average star during the 1950's but would become much more popular in his later years in comedic roles on Airplane and The Naked Gun.
Of the movie, Sassycat61 writes, "I LOVE LOVE LOVE this movie. The bitchy cracks, the FABULOUS fashions, Agnes Moorehead, Dolores Gray, Ann Miller, June Allyson, YES MA'AM!!!"
June Allyson plays the virtuous wife who loses her husband to scheming gold digger Joan Collins (seen here in her pre-"Dynasty"). Girls use their claws without ruining their manicures! A remake of 1939 "The Women" which some commented as "certified classic of brittle bitchiness and acidic wit," and "insanely phallic calypso musical extravaganza, and the gloriously gaudy fashion show that the ladies put on for nearly 2 dizzying hours" also "For those looking for glamorous, campy entertainment with no thought required--pop this baby in."
Years ago, I saw a small promo photo in a 1950's magazine and fell in love with the dresses especially the one Dolores Gray wore. After more years found the VHS, then along came the Internet and Youtube. You can see how much Dolores Gray influenced female impersonator Lypsinka.
Sugarbarre found a beautiful photo of the ladies for this movie and sent it to www.pettipond.com (to show off Dolores Gray's dress). This encouraged me to find two more promo photos to show off the beautiful dresses made for this movie which I sent to Pettipond. And motivated me to extract from the DVD as I am sure many viewers love Dolores Gray and enjoy watching her in this gorgeous dress.
The Opposite Sex (1956) available from Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/Opposite-Sex-VHS-June-Allyson/dp/6301980727/ref=sr_1_3?...

Go to Warner Bros archive webpage and browse to O section for "The Opposite Sex." There are some selling the same thing on ebay for $38 but cheaper direct from WB.

They really don't dress the ladies of the silver screen like they used to. Flawless and stunning and the sex appeal was earned not given with cheep tawdry nude scenes

I saw this on tv here in the UK a couple of months ago but I can't get it on dvd! Has anyone seen the original 1930s version with Joan Crawford?

One of my all time favorite movies--the clothes, the bitchiness, the songs, I want it on DVD NOW!

I found the DVD on ebay, it was a little better quality than VHS but not factory quality. Probably burned from a cable channel. Oh yes, the clothesand the bitchiness!
