The definitive history of Hollywood's most legendary costume
designer, featuring an insightful biography and previously unseen
sketches, ephemera, and photos behind the scenes of hundreds of
iconic films. All About Eve. Funny Face. Sunset Blvd. Rear Window.
Sabrina. A Place in the Sun. The Ten Commandments. Scores of cinema
classics of the last century had one thing in common: Edith Head
(1897-1981). She racked up an unprecedented 35 Oscar nods and 400
film credits over the course of a fifty-year career, and changed
the fashion world forever with her timeless creations that continue
to resonate and inspire present-day designers, fashion followers,
and film-lovers. This one-of-a-kind survey of her life and work
reveals the woman behind the famous dark glasses and brings
together a spectacular collection of rare and never-before-seen
sketches, costume test shots, behind-the-scenes photos, and
ephemera. Stunningly illustrated with more than 350 images and
packed with information, this is both the most comprehensive work
on Edith Head ever published and a lavish history of Hollywood in
the twentieth century.
