Great Hollywood Costume Designers You Should Know About
Edith Head was a towering figure known as the “dress doctor” whose recognition came in the form of 35 Oscar nominations and 8 awards – still a record to this day.
The main testament to her talent is probably the list of films and actors she has designed for, most notably her 11 films with the master of suspense Alfred Hitchcock; 7 films dressing Natalie Wood; and 3 films each with Barbara Stanwyck and Audrey Hepburn, two icons of style to this day.
