Anthony Mendleson (7 February 1915 – 5 September 1996) was a British costume and set designer. He is perhaps best known for creating the costumes for Ealing Studios in the 1940s and 1950s; these include his designs for such critically acclaimed films as Kind Hearts and Coronets (1949), The Lavender Hill Mob (1951), Mandy (1952), and The Ladykillers (1955). Mendleson has been nominated twice, for Young Winston (1972) and The Incredible Sarah (1976), for the Academy Award for Best Costume Design.
Mendleson was born on 7 February 1915 in Chiswick, London and died in London on 5 September 1996.[1]
