Carbon Costume

Edith is best known from the 1975 documentary Grey Gardens. The documentary captures the odd everyday life of Edith and her daughter Little Edie, former wealthy socialites who live in their decaying Long Island estate together, where they never leave the house. We see their very eccentric and hilarious personalities as they reminisce on their younger years with the occasional singing and dancing.

Edith in most of this documentary is sitting in bed and covered in blankets, but she does have some key outfit moments. She is an older woman, so she sticks with comfortable clothing like sweaters, robes, slippers, sometimes just a towel, and a variety of fun sun hats-even inside the house!
