We're Not Dressing is a 1934 pre-Code screwball musical comedy film directed by Norman Taurog and starring Bing Crosby, Carole Lombard, George Burns, Gracie Allen and Ethel Merman.
Based on the 1902 J. M. Barrie play The Admirable Crichton, the film is about a beautiful yacht owner (Lombard) who becomes stranded on an island with her socialite friends, a wacky husband-and-wife research team (Burns and Allen) and a singing sailor (Crosby).
Unfortunately, the only person with any survival skills is Stephen, and the socialites are quick to demand that he gather food and build shelter.
Doris discovers that there are other people on the island when she falls prey to a lion trap in the jungle: zany Gracie (Allen) and scientific husband George (Burns) live on the other side of the not-so-deserted isle.
Doris arranges for some tools and clothes to float past Stephen, who is elated at his "discovery" and quickly builds a house.
