Anne Klein II
Born:-08/03/1923
Died:-03/19/1974
Trendsetter Anne Klein made a name for herself by introducing a sporty
element into US fashion. The native New Yorker went into freelance design
after leaving school, eliminating fussiness from women's garments and
giving a more youthful look.
Anne Klein & Co was set up in 1968 and after
Anne Klein's death from cancer in 1974, Donna Karan and Louis Dell'Olio continued as
co-designers. Dell'Olio is now head designer, and oversees Anne Klein II.
