The Dead Thread 2024

Edith Head (b. 1897) has proteges who are still relevant in 2026. That's a legacy.

I think that most people don't realize motion pictures are not "fashion." So many people say to me, "Isn't it lovely to be a fashion designer and dress these beautiful stars?" That is not what happens. I get a script, and the script says, "In this film, Grace Kelly is playing a princess, she's beautiful, and she has fabulous clothes." The next script says, "Grace Kelly is a middle-aged, dowdy housewife"... so you do dowdy clothes. I can do tacky clothes, dowdy clothes, sexy clothes, horrible clothes... anything the world should want—male, female, or animals... Costume design is like theater. Costume design is to tell a story. It has nothing to do with fashion at all, unless it is a fashion picture.

Fun fact about Bob Mackie -- he was Mattel's costume designer for Barbie.
