In Gone With the Wind (1939), Scarlett O'Hara (played by Vivien Leigh) stomped, flirted and made unladylike declarations like "Great balls of fire!" However, it was her costumes, designed by Walter Plunkett, that made her character. Most memorable of all is the emerald green gown she made out of curtains from her family's plantation house. She wore it to seduce Rhett Butler into lending her money to save her farm.
