The costumes in the 1939 film Lady of the Tropics were primarily inspired by Thai (Siamese) traditional attire and Balinese dance (Indonesia), even though the story is set in Saigon, Vietnam
The legendary designer Adrian intentionally blended the opulence of various Southeast Asian cultures. The inspirations behind these designs are detailed below
Thai (Siamese) Headdress and Royal Regalia: Hedy Lamarr’s headdress and costume in the film bear a striking resemblance to the Chada and the traditional attire used in Thai Khon masked dance, rather than the Ao Dai or traditional Vietnamese dress. Adrian spent a staggering $35,000 at the time to create these elaborate costumes and headpieces
Balinese Dance Influence: The structure of the costume used in the dance sequence was influenced by the attire of Balinese dancers, characterized by intricate gold-thread embroidery that is both graceful and mysterious
