The Well-Dressed Man To Be

 This photo is stamped Dec., 1929.  So, this is a quite young Mr. Montgomery modeling silk pajamas.  I'm guessing he did not choose his outfit.  Later he would wear silk dressing gowns on the set between takes.  That was a classy look, besides being practical.  This look, however, is, well ... words fail me.  I would say he'd be great to cuddle up to in bed.

The style is based on the traditional Russian Cossack top. Found this ad on Pinterest with a similar outfit except made of cotton broadcloth instead of silk. (That's Sears for you!)

Wonder what the colors were. Maybe a base color of white or light gold with red or purple accents? The mind boggles.....
