Night Caps

BETTE DAVIS: The actress used a skullcap to hide her hairline, shaved back to play Queen Elizabeth I in The Virgin Queen.

Crowning Glory

COURTNEY LOVE: The grunge goddess found just the thing to top off her $15 thrift-store dress: a $2 plastic headpiece. SALMA HAYEK: "Where else is a girl going to wear a tiara if it's not to the Oscars?" Hayek told People. "You get to star in your own fairy tale." ELIZABETH TAYLOR: To present the award for Costume Design, Taylor wore a $25,000 sparkler, a gift from then-husband Mike Todd.
