Ricky to Lucy dress
One of the most iconic scenes of “A Christmas Carol” is Ricky’s proposal to buy Lucy and Ethel new dresses. As the two women discuss the dress choices, Ricky demonstrates that they are not terribly fashion-conscious, and he suggests dreses made of potato sacks and a phony Jacques Marcel label. The pair also plan to make hats from feedbags and champagne buckets. While Ricky and Ethel resign themselves to their ‘unsightly’ outfits, their wives demand the originals.
During the stalemate, Lucy decides to go on a hunger strike until Ricky buys her the dress. To avoid starving, Ethel sneaks food to Lucy. After a few days, Lucy has an epiphany: “Ricky, please buy me a dress!” But Ricky cannot spend the money on another designer dress, and even though he has already purchased an original of Lucy Don Loper from Hollywood the year before, he cannot afford to spend the money on another. He then realizes that Lucy is lying about her hunger strike, and he is unable to save his wife.
The dress was designed by Elois Jenssen, who de-emphasized Lucy’s height in order to make her fit into the white housecoat. The song featured in the show is “Granada,” written by Agustin Lara in 1932, and first heard on the unaired pilot of the show. A full orchestra performs this song on stage. And if Ricky does manage to convince Lucy, it will make the song even more memorable.
After Lucy finds out that Ricky is seeing another woman, she tries to persuade him to attend the show. However, Ricky is dissatisfied with her performance. In an attempt to win the producer’s approval, she tries to sneak into the show to steal Rosemary’s dress. Though she knows nothing about dance, Lucy is determined to get between Rosemary and Ricky. She also tries to get between the two.
Another popular Halloween costume is a Ricky and Lucy costume. Ricky and Lucy look more adorable together than apart. After all, no one can tell which of them is more romantic. But it’s a fun, carefree affair! So, if you’re looking for a costume that will make you feel like a king or queen, consider a Ricky and Lucy outfit. There are plenty of great options out there for both.
