  • And the Oscar Goes To
    SOCIETY & CULTURE Oscar de la Renta with Spanish socialite and exhibits former fashion model Naty Abascal in the 1960s. AND THE OSCAR GOES TO... As the Museum of Fine Arts pays tribute to prolific fashion designer Oscar de la Renta, local style icons look back on his impact on both their lives and the world. By Michele Meyer The first major fashion exhibit at The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston began with one phone call, when philanthropist Lynn Wyatt rang up Museum Director Gary Tinterow. Having seen a tribute to the late, great Oscar de la Renta at San Francisco’s de Young museum, Wyatt believed Houston should stage its own showcase of the dapper designer. After all, he’d often visited our city and had clad not only Audrey Hepburn, Taylor Swift, Oprah Winfrey and every first lady of the United States—from Nancy Reagan to Michelle Obama— but also many local fashionistas, Wyatt among them. Needless to say, Tinterow agreed. Rest assured that the resulting exhibit, The Glamour and Romance of Oscar de la Renta—on view through Jan. 28—is no knock-off. Not only did de la Renta’s heirs and French label Pierre Balmain share corporate and personal archives, but some of Houston’s best-dressed denizens opened their own closets to the MFA. Each section features gorgeous garb loaned by Wyatt; former Mayor Bob Lanier’s wife, Elyse Lanier; fine arts patron Rosanette Cullen; anesthesiologist Yvonne Cormier; and former first lady Laura Bush. “He told me he had a special affection for the women of Houston because they had style and wore their clothes beautifully,” Cormier says.

  • The Argument for Agency in the Stardom of Katharine Hepburn
    Sara Bakerman Too Good for the Fan Rags: The Argument for Agency in the Stardom of Katharine Hepburn Abstract During her tenure at RKO in the 1930s, Katharine Hepburn ascended to the top echelon of stardom, establishing herself in the public eye as a gifted actress even as she resisted the formal structures of fame and celebrity. Through the examination of personal correspondences, including letters and telegrams from fans, friends, and colleagues, this paper investigates the extent to which Hepburn actively contributed to the maintenance of her image leveraged her stardom as the means to manage her own career. Of equal concern in this inquiry are the implications of the actress’s agency for the longevity of her early career; to this end, contemporary fan magazine coverage will be analyzed for its role in constructing Hepburn’s public persona. The discrepancies and overlaps in the public and private discourses surrounding her star image serve as crucial evidence of Hepburn’s privileged status within the industry, which runs contrary to broadly accepted notions of the studio system. As early as 1935, RKO memorandums reveal that the star wielded considerable power within the studio and was making decisions regarding production, which was particularly rare for actresses during this phase of the studio era. That same year, Hepburn received a letter that predicted her eventual labeling as “box office poison” and suggested ways to achieve greater influence in Hollywood; subsequent correspondence indicates the nuances of the studio’s response to Hepburn’s attempts to follow that advice. In terms of industrial agency, these communications offer a dynamic that is particularly crucial to the understanding of the ostensibly “private” star.
