Bevan, the British Costume Director, Is Up for Her Fourth Oscar

British costume director Jenny Bevan is up for her fourth Oscar next month. This time she is nominated for Mrs Harris Goes to Paris, a charming film about Ada Harris who falls in love with a Christian Dior gown and sets her heart on getting her own. Her ideas come first from the script, then she throws herself into research, creating mood boards. If you were a film star, you would think nothing of telling her all your secrets while she was dressing you. Does she get good gossip? She says: "I do hear some fairly intimate stuff."
