“Peggy Lee’s granddaughter, Holly Foster Wells, has teamed up with the Great American Songbook Foundation to create a video paying tribute to Lee’s singular style. Wells showcases a gown that Lee designed herself in the 80s, explaining: “When she liked a design, she designed several in multiple colors.” Wells added: “When my grandmother first got started in the business, she was very young, she didn’t have a lot of money, she had to borrow dresses from friends, from local people in town in North Dakota. So, as she got older and more successful, she was able to really create the look she wanted, not the look she had to borrow.” (Source: Will Schube, UDiscoverMusic)
