Oscar-winning costume designer hailed for his work on Death on the Nile, Travels With My Aunt and Tess
Salome Otterbourne, romantic novelist and prospective corpse, enters on screen in Death on the Nile (1978) with a couple of sloshed bons mots and an ostentatious tango. Angela Lansbury plays her as a comic monster, supported by Anthony Powell, who designed Salome’s turban and vampish dress. The exotic ensemble is an instant biography – Salome had had enough money to buy it when it was modish a decade before, and still considers herself irresistible in it, fringes thrashing her partner.
