FILM 1585: THE LADY EVE
TRIVIA: Edith Head's
first in a long line of costume designing for Barbara Stanwyck. The
wedding gown caused a fashion sensation. So much so that it was copied for
brides and called, "the Lady Eve dress."
Barbara Stanwyck and Henry Fonda rarely retired
to their dressing rooms between takes. Instead, they hung out with Preston Sturges, listening
to his stories and reviewing - and often re-writing - their lines.
With so many people on the set, Preston Sturges dressed
eccentrically so that he would stand out. He usually wore either a brightly
coloured beret or a hat with a feather in it. This sartorial splendour led to
his being dubbed the worst-dressed man in Hollywood.
