Born as Fred Valles, this Hollywood costume designer took the more grandiose name Arlington Valles as his professional handle, eventually jettisoning the "Arlington" part completely. He first provided costumes for the 1938 version of A Christmas Carol. He did noticeably good work on National Velvet, Albert Lewin's The Picture of Dorian Gray, The Yearling and That Forsyte Woman. In 1960, his efforts on his last film, Spartacus, won him an Academy Award for Best Costume Design, Color, shared with Bill Thomas.
