Fashions on Parade is an American fashion-themed television series that aired on the now-defunct DuMont Television Network Fridays at 8pm EST from November 4, 1948, to April 24, 1949, then broadcast on ABC from April 27 to June 29, 1949. The show was hosted by Adelaide Hawley Cumming beginning on local DuMont stations on February 5, 1948.
The show featured models showcasing the then-latest fashions, and was the first national television program sponsored by Procter & Gamble. Each episode was 30 minutes long, and was also broadcast under the titles Television Fashions and Fashion Parade.
Two episodes of the program (June 8, 1949, and a second 1949 episode) are held in the J. Fred MacDonald collection at the Library of Congress.
