  • Homage to Piero Tosi (Costume Designer)
    The Scenographer presents Homage to Piero Tosi (costume designer) When I arrive at the Gino Carlo Sensani costume department accompanied by a student of the National School of Cinema, it does not in the least surprise me that Tosi receives me whilst keeping his back to me, intent on making some adjustment to a student’s problematic sketch. He pronounces a rapid greeting then lets pass a perfect lapse of time, neither too extended nor too brief, before turning to face me. Thoroughbred of the stage and screen, director of himself and in part an incorrigible actor, with an acknowledged debt to Norma Desmond and to those who still know how to descend a staircase with an outstretched arm on the banister, prompting those in attendance to take off their hat. I have known Pierino for many years, less in person, more through the words and the verbal accounts of Fellini, which almost never coincided with those of Tosi, yet traced a portrait with indelible colours. There is also a vague suggestion of witchcraft, from the moment in which the man ceased to change, neither from within nor from without. No sign of ageing, of the passing of time, preserved in a bubble of glass. Immutable, this is how Pierino Tosi appears to me, though he has no need of these compliments, neither does he fish for them, with always a foot placed on that shadowy line beyond which it is so easy to vanish, to fade away. Our mutual long-term acquaintance with Fellini draws us inevitably back to that climate.

  • Anthony Mendleson (Costume Designer) 2/1915 – 10/1996 by Admin — Last Modified Jul 27, 2008 02:38 PM
    Anthony Mendleson (costume designer) 2/1915 – 10/1996 by admin — last modified Jul 27, 2008 02:38 PM BIOGRAPHY: Initially a painter and designer for the stage, Anthony Mendleson joined the staff of Ealing Studios as costume designer and wardrobe supervisor in 1947. He remained at Ealing until the studio closed, designing for most of the studio’s classics including Kind Hearts and Coronets (1949) and The Man in the White Suit (1951). During the 1960s and ‘70s he worked at Pinewood, on a wide variety of films, including The Yellow Rolls Royce (1964), and Oh! What a Lovely War (1969), for which he was awarded a BAFTA. SUMMARY: In this interview he talks in detail to Linda Wood about his work at Ealing, the working atmosphere of the studio, and the specific demands of designing for black and white and for Technicolor. He discusses the role of the costume designer and wardrobe supervisor – the demands of working for realist as well as flamboyant productions - and the relationship between the studio designer and the couturier who might costume a leading actress. There is some material on the difference between Ealing and Pinewood, and Mendleson recalls many of the directors and actors who he has worked with, including Richard Attenborough, Rex Harrison, Ingrid Bergman, and Alexander Korda. The interview is a particularly successful mix of anecdotes and technical information on the work of the costume designer, containing some fascinating insights.
