Edith's male gait proves she is a HE!
In the club too! ImageImageImageImage
Known as "the dress doctor", Edith is one of the fashion designer icons of cinema and her designs have left us with some formidable iconic images of woMEN on screen.

You need an MTF to design costumes for MTF celebs. ImageImageImageImage
We are told Edith took up art purely by chance but as we know you can't become rich & famous through talent. Edith was born into the #EGI club.

Many 1920s magazines provided colourful images of the latest 1920s fashion for women. Some magazines, such as Gazette du Bon Ton, catered exclusively to the “rich and famous.”
MTF designs for the MTF elite!

A collection of colour prints from the 1920s fashion magazine, Gazette du Bon Ton.
Many Parisian 1920s dresses for evening were straight and slender. A slimming effect, no matter the waistline of the wearer, was achieved through the drapery and the fall of each fold.
