Once again, it's time for the stars to shine at the Academy Awards. Edith Head was an American costume designer who won eight Oscars for Best Costume Design. And nominated for 35 Oscars, she became the most awarded woman in the Academy's history. She is considered to be one of the greatest costume designers in movie history. She designed Grace Kelly's dress for Alfred Hitchcock's "Rear Window," the sarong dress for Dorothy Lamour in "The Hurricane," and she received her final Oscar for work on "The Sting" with Paul Neuman and Robert Redford. She also worked in television, designing Endora's clothing on "Bewitched." She designed clothes for men too, including five films for John Wayne, Steve Martin in "Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid" and Elvis in "Blue Hawaii."
