A gown worn by Ann Blyth in The King's Thief (1955) has been donated to the new Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. It is from the Arnold R. Kunert Collection. Ann wore several period gowns in the film, and at this point, I don't know which of them is the one donated to the museum, but I'll let you know when I have more description.
The Academy Museum of Motion Pictures is slated to open to the public next year at 6067 Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles.
