Скачать или смотреть 20 Fascinating Vintage Photos Of A Young Lucille Ball During Her Modeling Days !

Although she is a beautiful woman, Lucille Ball never really attempted to have a glamorous look in her television career, so you might be surprised to learn that Lucy earned her living as a model before she ever turned to comedy for her show business career. In fact, she dyed her blonde hair red to differentiate herself from the idea of a Hollywood starlet.








Back in New York City with a new determination, Lucille Ball landed her first modeling job in a small wholesale coat place on Seventh Avenue. She went by the name of Diane Belmont. The Belmont racetrack on Long Island inspired her name.


Soon Lucy moved into an atmosphere of gilded elegance. She became a model at Hattie Carnegies internationally famous dress shop on East Forty-Ninth Street. Overnight, she found herself in a world of rich society women, glamorous movie stars, and free-spending men-about-town.


Lucy learned to look and move with elegance and grace. Watching all the society women, Lucy analyzed their styles, how they walked, moved, and what they wore and how they talked. Connie and Joan Bennett were frequent customers and this was the time Lucy decided to bleach her hair the color of Joan's platinum blonde. She began to cram a stockpile of information that would serve her well in the coming years.


Of this time in her life, Ball said, Hattie taught me how to slouch properly in a $1,000 hand-sewn sequin dress and how to wear a $40,000 sable coat as casually as rabbit.
