This exhibition — drawn from the collection at Kent State Museum — features a range of costumes and fashions that were instrumental in shaping some of the most memorable characters portrayed on stage or screen by acclaimed actress Katharine Hepburn (1907-2003).
Included in the exhibition are costumes from the stage productions of “The Philadelphia Story” (1939), “Without Love” (1942) and “Coco” (1969), classic films including “Adam’s Rib” (1949), “Stage Door” (1937) and “Long Day’s Journey into Night “(1962), and many of her television movies, such as “Love Among the Ruins” (1975).
Additionally, Hepburn’s signature look — an ensemble of tailored beige trousers and linen jackets — is featured along with vintage posters, playbills photos, and other ephemera that illustrate Hepburn’s long career. The collection spans over five decades of the star’s career in the theater, movies and television — from the 1933 play “The Lake “to the 1986 television movie “Mrs. Delafield Wants to Marry.”
