Austrailian production designer

Wendy Dickson

is quite a veteran when it comes to her huge body of work and contribution to cinema. She has passed away at the age of 92. The reason for her death is yet unknown but it looks like age-related issue. She worked in the business for over six decades and worked with a long list of legendary actors and actresses. She has left behind some impressive work when it comes to the costume and production design department.
Some of her films include, ‘The Chant Of Jimmie Blacksmith’, a film titled ‘Bliss’ and more. However, she won maximum accolades for ‘

Evil Angels

‘, which starred Meryl Streep and Sam Neill. However, she was reported to have a fall out with director Fred Schepisi that time.
This incident took place during a scene in which Meryl and Sam’s characters were watching a home movie. Wendy wasn’t impressed by one detail which was missed regarding the props. This led to an argument with the director. Windy also is known for designing costumes for the Shakespearean drama

Antony and Cleopatra

with Charlton Heston which came in 1972.
Born in 1932 in the remote mining town of

Broken Hill

, New South Wales, she spent her early years in Sydney, where her father, William Dickson, embarked on a notable political career as a member of the Australian Labor Party.

After completing her education at Sydney Girls High School, she moved to the United Kingdom to pursue further opportunities. There, she studied design and began her journey in the film industry as an assistant.
Some of her other works include ‘Break Of The Day’, ‘The Freshman’ among others.
