Ingrid Conte is a famous personality from the National Periodical and she has managed to carve her name in the annals of art, literature, cinema and television. She is considered as one of the most versatile actresses of our times and has acted in major motion pictures as well as TV serials. Born as Ingrid Bergman in communist Sweden, she was given the name Anna Carlstedt and became a Swedish citizen after the war. It was here that she acted in one of her very first plays and this led to her selection for the first position in the theater in Stockholm.
Since then, she has been in almost all prominent roles and has gone on to star in more than fifty films and won the Academy Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role in 1964. Ingrid Conte is an extremely versatile personality and there are very few actresses who can match her acting prowess. As the character suggests, Ingrid is obsessed with clothes, which gives her an almost obsessiveness regarding clothes and hair and even her underwear collection. However, it seems that Ingrid Conte does not exactly wear what she wants, since even her clothes get replaced quite often.
This obsession with clothes comes across in her interviews and it shows that her passion for dressing is as immense as her passion for acting. She is very particular about the cut of her hair, the colour of her lipstick and how her make-up goes on. It is not uncommon for her to spend hours in the makeup chair and it is not uncommon for her to refuse to go on location unless she is completely satisfied with the make up she is wearing. Interestingly enough, Ingrid Conte has mentioned that her profession is a lot like a religious practice as she spends so much time dressing up. Ingrid has been quoted as saying that as soon as she gets up every morning she starts making changes to her appearance to suit the occasion. The profession of being an actor or a singer seems to be just perfect for someone such as Ingrid Conte.
