"Puttin' on the Ritz" is a popular song written by Irving Berlin in 1929. The title comes from the slang for 'putting on the Ritz', meaning someone who dresses very fashionably. The "Ritz" in the term refers to the Ritz Hotel. The song features Gary Cooper as an example of elegance. The original version of Berlin's song referred to the affluent white New Yorkers of the time, who were popular among African-American jazz bars in Harlem. Berlin later revised the text and generalized it. The original number was very popular between 1929 and 1930. The gramophone recording featured Harry Richman and Fred Astaire.
