context_page_description: Adrian Adolph Greenburg, widely known as Adrian, was an American costume designer whose most famous costumes were for The Wizard of Oz and hundreds of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer films between 1928 and 1941. He was usually credited onscreen with the phrase "Gowns by Adrian". Early in his career he chose the professional name Gilbert Adrian, a combination of his father's forename and his own.
context_section_description: Though the unmarried Adrian was rumored to be gay, he married Janet Gaynor on August 14, 1939. Gaynor had been unmarried for six years since her previous marriage had ended, and while the marriage could have been a lavender marriage response to industry whispering campaigns, both Adrian and Gaynor went on record to say they were happily married, and they remained so until his death in 1959. Gaynor and Adrian had one son, Robin (born July 6, 1940).
