OMG! I can’t believe I guessed it! :o)

Wow, she was gorgeous, wasn’t she?
Funny how back in the unenlightened 40s and 50s, the biggest female movie stars — Crawford, Stanwyck, Bette Davis, Susan Hawyard, Loretta Young — seemed to be so much more varied in looks and style than the skinny blondes we seem to run to now (talented though many of them undoubtedly are).
I don’t think those are shoulder pads, but a wire hanger.
