Janet Leigh rides a bike, fashionably.

July 11, 2025

An early press photo of Janet Leigh, sporting a nifty cycling outfit. It’s 1948, and the future star of Psycho, just signed to MGM,  is appearing in her second picture, the drama If Winter Comes.

The photo captions:

“FASHIONS FOR FUN… Janet leigh, who is fond of all types of athletics, chooses her sports clothes with an eye on comfort and durability as well as on style. The young Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer actress will soon be seen nextin ‘If Winter Comes,’ with Walter Pidgeon, Deborah Kerr and Angela Lansbury.”

“TOPS WITH BICYCLERS is Janet’s two-pieced flannel outfit. The beige shorts are topped by a pale yellow sports shirt which is set off by a yellw-and-beige silk scarf. A brown belt with a carry-all pocket and brown moccasin shoes add a practiced note. Outfit by Saks Fifth Avenue. Shoes by Connors-Weiss.”
