Someone whose career peaked in the 1930s. Someone who was in light comedy, musicals.
So Ruby Keeler a strong candidate but is she famous enough now for enough people to have a sporting chance of a guess? Jean Harlow died too soon, possibly Ginger Rogers but not enough dance shoes?

I’m going to make a wild guess here since the shoe styles range from the 20s through about the 70s — is it Gypsy Rose Lee?

There are lots of costumes in there. I suspect it is Olivia de Havilland.

The best shoes in “whose shoes” ever! (Doesn’t help me know the answer, though. I’d have guessed Ruby Keeler if not for the ballet shoes.)

Cyd Charisse. Right age and started as a ballet dancer

Joan Crawford? I seem to recall she was a pretty gifted dancer, among other things.

I think it might be Louise Brooks, although it could definitely be another early film star like Clara Bow.

The shoes look like 30s and 40s and suggest musicals. Legs are too short for Cyd Charisse and Eleanor Powell.
Alice Faye?

All I know is, those are NOT Cyd Charisse’s legs.
