Bianca Mosca, of Italian origins, one of London's two women couturiers, designed accessories for Schiaparelli
in
Paris for 14 years, and was the designing genius of the famous Schiap shop, downstairs in the Place Vendome, before moving to London to direct the
studio at Jacqmarat at the start of the war in 1939. She opened her
own couture house in 1946. Bianca Mosca who believed in women's clothes being as feminine as she can make them, was particularly pleased with the handling qualities of tie silks and brocades by West Cumberland Silk Mills. Bianca Mosca died in 1950. |
