EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the radiant beauty and grace of Adele Astaire, the celebrated comedy actress and dance partner of her famous brother, Fred Astaire. The image, dated 1934, shows Adele in an elegant white silk blouse with a high neckline, a style that was fashionable during the mid-1930s.

The photograph, taken during her acting career, showcases Adele's effortless charm and natural comedic talent.
