An incredibly successful costume designer with eight Oscars to prove it, Edith Head continues to inspire new generations of designers. Creating glamorous gowns for Hollywood stars was Head’s specialty, and she worked with all the big names of the 1930s through 1960s, such as Mae West, Bette Davis, Dorothy Lamour, Elizabeth Taylor, Grace Kelly, and Audrey Hepburn. Adored by some, hated by others, Edith Head’s highly competitive and secretive nature drove her career to a meteoric height. Join educational entertainer, Martina Mathisen, to discover why Edith Head was the most influential costume designer in Hollywood history. Live Q&A will follow the presentation.
