"'When Adrian showed me the sketch, I laughed,' remembers Hepburn. [...] 'Then he explained to me how he saw Tracy's character. She comes on, you know, and she wants to be running the show. Very bossy. She wants to defy convention, and she won't take advice from anyone. But inside there's a frightened young girl. He thought the hat would help show that Tracy wasn't as stiff as she seemed on the surface, and also give a glimpse of that girl inside. Well, you know, I loved it.'" - Katharine Hepburn on Adrian (Gowns by Adrian: the MGM years 1928-1941)
