FILED HAT BIN 12 2023 INV From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Nettie Rosenstein Born 1890 Salzburg, Austria Died March 13, 1980 (age 90) New York City, U.S. Known for little black dresses; costume jewelry Label Nettie Rosenstein ​ Coty Award Neiman Marcus Fashion Award Nettie Rosenstein (1890 - March 13, 1980) was an American fashion designer, based in New York City between c.1913 and 1975. She was particularly renowned for her little black dresses and costume jewelry...... and further write up on her fame as a designer In the 1920s American fashion business, imported fashions by named French couturiers were considered the best to be had. At this time Rosenstein's designs were sold by stores under their own labels, though purchasers were told that the dresses were in fact by Nettie Rosenstein.[3] Through word of mouth Rosenstein earned name recognition and her own-name label became a valuable commodity. Her clothes were retailed around America, but only one store in each city was permitted to carry fashions bearing Rosenstein's label.[2] In 1927 Rosenstein tried an early retirement, but resumed designing in 1931, when she reopened on West 47th Street in collaboration with her sister-in-law Eva Rosencrans and Charles Gumprecht.[1][3] In 1937, Rosenstein was described by Life Magazine as one of the most highly regarded American designers.[2] She was one of the first recipients of the Neiman Marcus Fashion Award on its launch in 1938. In 1940, Rosenstein clothing was sold out of 92 shops and department stores across the USA, at prices ranging from $98 to $500.[4] Whilst these prices were beyond the range of most consumers, Rosenstein's designs were so widely copied that she still influenced the average American woman's wardrobe.[4] One such design was the "little black dress" designed to go from day to evening with low-cut evening necklines combined with daywear silhouettes and materials.[2][4] Nettie Rosenstein designs also included printed dresses with gloves to match, and she was also known for her accessories and striking costume jewelry.[2] Many of the more striking Nettie Rosenstein garments were designed by Eva Rosencrans as Rosenstein preferred to focus her attention on running the business, and her sister-in-law was happy to let Nettie take credit for her work.[5] Nettie Rosenstein announced her second retirement in March 1942, inspiring a tribute in TIME Magazine.[3] However, this retirement did not last long, as she resumed fashion design a few years later, winning a Coty Award in 1947. Nettie Rosenstein was responsible for First Lady Mamie Eisenhower's dress commissioned by Neiman Marcus for the 1953 presidential inauguration Ball, although the dress itself (and the subsequent 1957 ballgown for the second presidential inauguration) were designed by Eva Rosencrans, a good friend of Mamie's since 1950. unquote... Finding Your Size Glove measurements are determined by the circumference around the palm of the hand where the knuckles are. So dividing that in half, a size 7 glove should be about 3 1/2 in. across the palm - or 7 in. around. So measure your own hand, or a pair of vintage gloves that fits you, to determine your size, and when you see some gloves with no size you like on Ebay or some other site, contact the seller and ask them to give you a measurement across the palm of the glove. Photos can be decieving, so don't assume that the gloves are your size without asking. They can be much smaller in real life -
