While actors get the most screen time, costume designer Edith Head holds a record that few will ever touch. She is the most awarded woman in Oscar history, with eight Academy Awards for Best Costume Design. Over her 50-year career at Paramount and Universal, she worked on over 400 films and received 35 nominations. Her wins included classics like 'All About Eve,' 'Roman Holiday,' and 'The Sting.' Known for her signature round glasses and straight-banged bob—which inspired the character Edna Mode in 'The Incredibles'—Head was a master of using clothing to define character and hide actors' physical insecurities. Her eighth and final Oscar for 'The Sting' in 1974 solidified her status as the ultimate artisan of the Golden Age of Hollywood, proving that the magic of the movies is often built by those working behind the scenes.
