THE ARTISAN WINTER 2020 • 35 There were several large crowd and ballroom scenes, both in America and in France. A debutante ball in Boston that Meg attends is all about young women and men in pastels and flowers; we wanted the look to be pretty, young and fresh. The grand ball in France needed to look more formal and reflect the height of fashion of the time, while the local dance in New York was quite informal. These large crowd scenes were all executed with many con- tainers of extra hair extensions and hairpieces, as well as additional hairdressers. We provided mood boards for the additional hairdressers on the large ballroom scene shooting days so that the entire team had a clear understanding of the looks we were trying to achieve. On a movie like this, it's so important to have a good team. Jennifer Bell, my key hairdresser, oversaw all of this with me. Jennifer, Laurel Kelly and Lori Fenton were all immensely important in the execution of the vision that I had for the look and texture of the movie. I am also very grateful to the make-up department, led by Judy Chin and Miho Suzuki. •
