The early Hollywood star system in particular specialised in Hollywood Glamour where they systematically glamorised their actors and actresses.
The “Golden Age” of Hollywood Glamour was the 1930s and 1940s, following the depression and its aftermath. Glamour is the result of chiaroscuro, the play of light on the landscape of the face, the use of the surroundings through the composition, through the shaft of the hair and creating mysterious shadows in the eyes.
Hollywood studios presented their female stars in designer gowns and exquisite jewelry, both on screen and in carefully orchestrated occasions for publicity.
