A picture of Swanson with her mother at bottom left of the Evening star. September 04, 1924, Page 17 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83045462/1924-09-04/ed-... looks to have her in the same hat and trim round the neck with white buttons and a rose. The caption reads: "TOOK THE PRINCE OF WALES’ SUITE. Gloria Swanson, movie star, and her mother, who sailed for Europe yesterday. They occupied the royal suite, which was used by the Prince of Wales when he came to this country aboard the steamship Berengaria a few days ago."

Gloria May Josephine Swanson (March 27, 1899 – April 4, 1983) was an American actress and producer. She first achieved fame acting in dozens of silent films in the 1920s and was nominated three times for the Academy Award for Best Actress, most famously for her 1950 return in Billy Wilder's Sunset Boulevard, which also earned her a Golden Globe Award.

husband is Henry de La Falaise, Marquis de La Coudraye (born James Henri Le Bailly de la Falaise, February 11, 1898 – April 10, 1972), was a French nobleman, translator, film director, film producer, sometime actor, and war hero who was best known for his high-profile marriages to two leading Hollywood actresses.

According to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_de_La_Falaise His first wife was "Gloria Swanson (1899–1983), American movie actress. They married in Paris, France, on January 28, 1925, after meeting on the set of the Swanson film Madame Sans-Gêne, on which La Falaise was working as a translator." So this photo was taken after January 28, 1925, probably in their arrival in New York. She was ill while in Paris, and their return was not until late March 1925. According to the New York Times, March 25, 1925, timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1925/03/25/98819674... the couple arrived on the French liner "Paris" the day before.

March 26, 1925, image 14, photo at top left chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn82014519/1925-03-26/ed-... for a photo taken on the same occasion, with caption, "While the Marquis de la Falaise made funny face, his bride, Gloria Swanson, highest paid woman movie star, smiled gloriously for cameraman when the liner Paris docked in New York. Gloria seemed fully recovered from illness in Paris.
