I almost missed it. Today is Edith Head’s 116th birthday.
Happy Birthday, Edith Head!
A woman that I greatly admire. She was an Oscar winning costume designer.
For those who like me, also love illustration, I have to share today’s Google Doodle in her honor:
She won Academy Awards for Best Costume Design for 8 movies, including ‘Roman Holiday’ and ‘The Sting’.
Here are a couple of links to related articles. Enjoy!
– An old post from Rebecca Mcwattie that we published a while ago.
– Rogues and Vagabonds – Edit Head
Also a link to a very interesting video where Edith Head is interviewed. She talks about Audrey Hepburn and how she developed costume designs for her latest movie, Roman Holiday.
Happy Birthday, Edith Head!
