Mae West: Find a magic

MAE WEST was dressed by Edith Head. Naturally, The Empress of Sex had an impact also on the actress who is currently starring on a British stage as the Oscar-winning designer.
• • Here's an excerpt from the article "Conversation With Edith Head: Susan Claassen" — —
• • Do you share Edith's passion for clothes and fashion?
• • Absolutely. Edith often quoted Mae West when she said, "Find a magic that does something for you honey — — and stick with it." I think that defines my sense of fashion. While in Edinburgh last summer, the Sunday Herald did a style piece that captured that philosophy.
• • Have you ever had a Hollywood diva moment?
• • I'd have to say the night my amazing London producers, Tony Field and John C. Causebrook came to see my performance in Edinburgh last summer. It was one of those magical nights in the theatre when all the ‘stars’ are aligned. Their reputation preceded them and when they introduced themselves after the show said they wanted to produce its West End premiere — — it was definitely a ‘Hollywood’ moment!
• • Why do you think A Conversation with Edith Head is going to appeal to a gay audience?
• • Because Edith Head represents style, class, and lots of sass! Oh, and did I mention Bette Davis?
