Old Movies on Instagram: "Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire in The Story of Vernon and Irene Castle, 1939 Irene Castle served as a technical advisor for the film. According to Ginger Rogers, Castle disliked every costume that she wore. The restrictions of the Hays Code undermined the film’s period authenticity and historical accuracy. Rogers’ costumes evoked late 1930s fashions rather than the more daring styles of Castle’s 1910s era."
