Bonnie Cashin
Fashion Walk of Fame
Following a career in costume design, Cahin launched her fashion business in the 1950s. Calling her clothing "kinetic art forms for living," she adapted simple cuts from the history of world clothing to meet the needs of modern women. She advocated playful but subtle exoticism and introduced layered, interlocking garments that could be arranged to suit the wearer's taste and activity. Fusing practicality and whimsy, Cashin's distinctive style and philosophy celebrated independence. |
