Gilda Texter (born 26 November 1946) is an American costume designer, wardrobe supervisor and actress. While Gilda Texter is quite accomplished for her work in the Costume and Wardrobe Department of over 40 movies and television productions, ironically she is probably most famous for her feature film debut in the movie Vanishing Point in which she appears completely naked for her entire performance and being credited as "Nude motorcycle rider" despite having a speaking part.

Texter only appeared in three movies which all came out in 1971. Other than Vanishing Point she had parts in Angels Hard as They Come and Runaway, Runaway. In further irony to Texter's later career in costume and wardrobe, the tagline to Runaway, Runaway was "PLEASE NOTE: If you are shocked or embarrassed by total nudity and sexual activity, you are urged NOT to attend".
