Miss Scarlett’s dresstoration

by Bill Davenport August 13, 2010

UT’s Harry Ransome Center is hoping fans will  donate $30,000 to restore five dresses worn by actress Vivian Leigh as Scarlett O’Hara in Gone With the Wind, which will be part of an exhibition marking the oscar-winning movie’s 75th anniversary in 2014. The Ransome center acquired the costumes- including the famous "green curtain dress," in the 80’s as part of the collection of the film’s producer, David O. Selznick. Donations can be made on the Ransom Center website.
