Career

Ruth Myers grew up in Manchester and attended the St. Martin's School of Art in London. Early in her career, she sewed sequins for Anthony Powell while also working as an assistant to Sophie Devine (costume designer for classic English films). Myers then turned to theatre and low-budget films such as the 1967 comedy Smashing Time. Upon being persuaded by Gene Wilder, Myers moved to the U.S .and worked with him on the films The World's Greatest Lover, The Woman in Red, and Haunted Honeymoon.[1]

Ruth Myers was the costume designer on the film The Russia House, notable for the costumes and splendid clothing worn by Roy Scheider.[1]

Myers acted as costume designer for the 2002 film The Four Feathers[2] and the 2008 film City of Ember.[3] She worked with Kevin Spacey in the films L.A. Confidential and Beyond the Sea. For the latter production, she used textiles from the 1950s and 1960s and ultimately designed 65 outfit changes for Spacey that appear in the film. The actor, who portrayed singer Bobby Darin, had to wear a wide range of costumes as a reflection of his life's journey, from bright suits to his signature red sweater.[4]

In 2008 Myers received the Career Achievement Award at the Costume Designers Guild Awards.[5] In 2011 she designed the costumes for the supernatural teen drama film Vampire Academy.[6] The following year, Myers oversaw costume design for the television miniseries Hemingway & Gellhorn.[7] Myers' efforts earned her a nomination in the outstanding made-for-television movie or miniseries category at the Costume Designers Guild Awards.[8]
