Publisher Description: Against the bright colors and even brighter lights of Hollywood was an icon whose fashion sense and dazzling couture rocked celebrity circles for half a century and earned her eight Academy Awards. Small in stature but super-sized in confidence, costume designer Edith Head's rise through the ranks of Paramount and Universal made her a favorite of the film industry's most beautiful women and most dashing men. Just like her creations for the silver screen, Edith embraced the belief that classics never go out of style, a belief reflected in her personal fondness for tailored suits in black, white, brown and beige-a diminutive dove amidst the plumage of star-studded peacocks. This one-act play, set in 1977, imagines an encounter between the intrepid designer and a young woman sorely in need of some wardrobe advice. |
