| Description: |
An exhilarating look at the quintessential American modernist, acclaimed for her Auntie Mame lifestyle, her iconoclastic approach to fashion, and her visionary designs for the modern American woman. |
| Synopsis: |
A talented artist who happened to become a fashion designer, Bonnie Cashin was brilliant, free-spirited, and unconventional in all she did. Revered for her intellectual and independent approach to fashion, Cashin changed the way women dressed with her revolutionary, forward-thinking approach to life. She designed chic, functional clothing for the modern woman on the go - women like herself who loved to travel and lived life to the fullest. The most successful independent fashion designer of her day, Cashin worked outside the fashion industry, yet is arguably the most influential designer of our time, revered in the fashion world and a muse for designers working today. Cashin is credited with many fashion firsts, including introducing the concept of layering and championing such timeless shapes as ponchos, tunics, and kimonos. She is acclaimed for inventing the it bag, with her classic handbag designs for Coach in the early 1960s. Brimming with a half-century of creative work, Bonnie Cashin's Century celebrates the designer's incredible, well-travelled life and her revolutionary designs with an unflinching, happy elegance. |
