This is a collection of essays by writers, fashion historians, and fashion curators focused on the iconic actress Katharine Hepburn through the prism of her influence on American fashion. Hepburn had a wonderful fashion sense which was demonstrated in her every day wardrobe of beautifully tailored trousers, turtlenecks, sweaters, pantsuits and the many hats she accumulated over the years. She always looked modern regardless of her age and she always was unique. The essays convey the fact that Hepburn was very aware of her clothing and the impression they made even though she appeared to not care. The book also discusses the fact that when Hepburn was being dressed for stage , screen, or private wear, she was an active part icipant in the designing of those clothes. The many designers with whom she worked recognized that she was very knowledgable in regard to what worked best and they appreciated that she was a professional in her approach to what she wore, on and off screen or stage . Hepburn was blessed with a splendid figure for fashion along with a photogenic face and added to that was a keen intelligence and awareness of what worked best for her. The essays provide context and commentary for the many photographs in the book -- many photos not previously seen by the general public. The book grew out of the 2010 exhibition at Kent State University of Hepburn's theatrical and film costume s. Now the exhibit has moved to the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center (Oct. 18 2012 through January 12, 2013)and this book includes photos of the costume s from the exhibit.
This book is a "must have" for any Hepburn fan and for anyone interested in American sportswear and one of the women who made it acceptable for women to wear pants everywhere.

ReplyDeleteIt was a christmas present. I looked at several and ended up buying three for him for christmas. He really liked them.
ReplyDeleteI remember when I was 4 or 5 I had one of these that was the skull of a cow and when you pulled the string the eyes would light up red. I have always remembered this and it's the reason I bought this plus it saves time in tying a tie. They really are nice and get a lot of remarks.
