Elizabeth Taylor has her hair cut and styled by society hairdresser Alexandre de Paris at his salon in Paris, France, photos by Francois Pages, January 23rd, 1958. This was the hairstyle Elizabeth wore as "Maggie the Cat" in the MGM/Richard Brooks drama Cat on a Hot Tin Roof which started production on March 6th, 1958 in Hollywood (though MGM's chief hairdresser Sydney Guilaroff was credited in the film). Alexandre (whose real name was Louis Alexandre Raimon) was close friends with Elizabeth and later created her hairstyles for Cleopatra (1963), The Taming of the Shrew (1967), and for her wedding to Richard Burton in Montreal, Quebec in 1964. A favorite among the high society, socialite and celebrity set, Alexandre also styled the hair of Princess Grace of Monaco, the Duchess of Windsor, Jacqueline Kennedy, Ava Gardner, Lauren Bacall, Audrey Hepburn, Greta Garbo, Sophia Loren, Liza Minnelli, Shirley MacLaine, and Tippi Hedren (whose hairstyles in the 1964 Alfred Hitchcock thriller Marnie were all created by Alexandre de Paris). He was also the preferred hairdresser of French fashion designers of the era, frequently called upon to style the hair of models appearing in fashion shows for Chanel, Yves Saint-Laurent, Givenchy, Christian Dior, and Balmain.
