Valerie Harper, who died today at age 80 after a courageous battle with cancer, was known for her signature head scarves. Go behind the story of them:
Few TV characters have ever been as legitimately stylish as Rhoda Morgenstern, the authentic, witty, insecure best friend of Mary Tyler Moore who moved to Minneapolis and worked as a window dresser at Hempel's Department Store. Of course, Rhoda came to life courtesy of actress Valerie Harper, who on Wednesday announced she has terminal brain cancer and, doctors predict, roughly three months to live. in her announcement: "I'm not thinking of dying. I'm thinking of being here now.
The "schlumpy" stuff — plain sweaters, skirts and vests without much pizzazz — kept Harper's character cornered as the "overweight" friend. But as soon as Harper was ready to kick her small-screen persona's clothes up a notch , Kirk became her assistant and unofficial stylist.. "I'd also go to her house and get rid of a lot of the wardrobe that didn't feel like Rhoda. She played a creative person, and we had to make her look zippy.
"Not every scarf could tie like that," says Kirk, who never was formally trained in fashion or costuming. "It's about finding the right shape." The scarves caused such a craze that Harper actually approached her friend about going into business. A self-professed "late-blooming hippie" who started wearing scarves after reading a story about African dress in, the style maker says she never gave much real-time thought to the looks she was creating.
