The Blondes of Hitchcock
Throughout his life Alfred Hitchcock has
always been the master of horrors, but the women in front of the camera did as
much for him as those working behind the scenes. Contrary to what Hitch
believed his leading ladies became his life line and the reason millions
flocked to theatres to see them and why people today keep going back to his
films. In this lecture costume designer and historian Jolene Marie
Richardson will look deeply into the relationship between Hitch and his
three most famous blondes, Grace Kelly, Janet Leigh, and Tippi
Hedren. Their relationships on set, their lasting impact on the film
industry at large, and how the look of the blonde became a Hitchcock signature
throughout his film career.
Jolene Marie Richardson is a Costume Designer and Fashion Historian. You
can currently see her work on The Last Drive In with Joe Bob Briggs streaming now on Shudder. She is the creator of Hanging by a Thread blog, a closer look at the designers and horror

feminist lens.
