New York—(UP)—The first American dress designer to become a member of French high couture in Paris has returned to his own country to open an establishment in New York.
Chicago-born Main Bocher, who united his name as a stylist, is known as the dressmaker for the Duchess of Windsor and until the fall of Davie, had been
For the present, Mainbocher said in an interview, he would concern himself entirely with designing personal wardrobes for individual clients many of whom he dressed in Paris. Asked whether he would stay in this country permanently, regardless of the future possibility of a revival of the fashion industry abroad, he said he did not know vet.
the fall of Paris, had operated an establishment there since 1930.
"I have to work here" he said.
"I is inconceivable to me that French dressmaking genius could vanish. But it is my firm conviction that a well done job ought to bring recognition wherever it is accomplished. American designers have now before them a golden path—for America enjoys peace and American women have a great love of clothes."
Mainbocher declined to comment on whether the Duchess of Windsor would order her winter wardrobe from him. Reportedly she had an agreement with him in Paris to buy her clothes nowhere else.
Among the American designer's other well known clients were Mrs. Antinor Patino, the Princess Karam of Kapurthala, the Countess de Valombrosa, Mary Pickford, Helen Hayes and Ina Claire.
To the general public, Mainbocher is best known for his creation of the much-copied wedding dress of the Duchess of Windsor, his launching of the strapless bodice and the now classical cocktail and dinner suit. His revival recently of the wasp-waisted corset brought stay and laces back into the fashion fold.
