CLAIBORNE, LIZ Print E-mail

LIZ CLAIBORNE

Liz Claiborne began her long career in fashion as a sketcher for Tina Leser in the 1950s.  She later became a design assistant to Omar Kiam at Ben Reig, and in the late 1950s, designer for Dan Keller.  Claiborne worked as a designer at Youth Guild starting in 1960. She was there for sixteen years before starting her own label in 1976. Her mid-priced casual working clothes were successful from the very beginning. She retired in 1989, but the label continues, very much in the spirit of the founder, with casual, comfortable clothes.  Liz Claiborne died in 2007.
