…………”FASHION FROM THE PAST”……..The model is wearing a complete Anne Klein outfit from head to toe from my Spring 1991 collection….I loved creating complete looks……I loved designing the clothing, but my vision was the whole look from top to bottom….Designing the accessories was such a treat for me to see my thoughts and dreams come to reality…..So many designers didn’t have the opportunity to achieve this, but at Anne Klein we had all of the necessary licenses….and if we didn’t I created them….I used to always have a company called Peneco do my hosiery…..When the stores wanted to buy them, and house them in their Anne Klein boutiques…I signed a deal with the company to produce a line of Anne Klein Hosiery….The stores were thrilled, because now they could buy EVERYTHING I showed on the runway…..They were all incredible quality!!!….The shoes were all made in Italy, and it was great fun creating the shoe line in Italy twice a year!….The bags were made mostly in the US, but some were produced in Italy by the same companies that made the shoes…..The knit dress, cardigan and shoes were all made in Italy…..the woven bucket bag, and jewelry were made in the US, as were the tights……the American factories, that I worked so closely with, and where I had great friends, are all closed now….VERY SAD!
