Bringing Back The Glamour


In 1979, Aaron Spelling proudly proclaimed that "We're bringing back the glamour" in reference to the fourth season of Charlie's Angels, and the new Angels team was dressed in fab gowns by Nolan Miller. Jaclyn Smiths's sexy and sheer black number was reminiscent of a white gown she wore for another Angels pictorial three years earlier (it's more sophisticated though.) Cheryl Ladd's  one-shoulder asymmetrical-cut and cut-out eveningwear was interesting from both the front and the back. And Shelley Hack's powder blue evening gown echoed Grace Kelly's 1955 Edith Head Oscar gown. The new Angels team truly personified glamour.
