French Actress
Edwige Feuillère

A 1946 Collier’s article in which the beloved French actress Edwige Feuillère (1907 – 1998) is personified as the epitome of wounded French Glamor returned to its rightful place following the hasty retreat of those nasty Huns from the boulevards of lovely Paris:

“Edwige Feuillère, France’s Number one actress, is wearing evening clothes again – and all fashionable Paris rejoices. It is a sort of symbol, the blooming of the lovely Edwige into full-panoplied formality. For she, along with most women of France, abstained from festivities and the clothes that go with them throughout the war.”
