he Paris Couture house Callot Sisters was founded in 1895 by four sisters; Marie Gerber, Marthe Bertrand, Regine Tennyson-Chantrelle and Josephine Crimont; at 24 Rue Taitbout, Paris in 1895. By 1900, Callot Sisters was employing 600 workers and had clientele in Europe and America. A number of designers including Madeleine Vionnet and Georgette Renal began their careers at Callot Sisters, before launching their own couture houses. The house designed daywear, tailored suits and evening dresses. The house was known for their luxurious use of silk, chiffon, and antique lace. Callot Sisters designs used old velvet and lace to construct elaborate day dresses which were often adorned with tiers of beads and more lace. They drew inspiration from Asian and African construction techniques. Callot sister Marie Gerber was drawn to the drape of the Asian kimono and was inspired by it in her designs. Gerber was also credited with designing some of the earliest variations of "Turkish" harem pants. Her combination of Asian design and the harem influence, gave birth to the "tango dress." For eveningwear Callot Sisters designed heavy satin gowns and were among the first designers to promote lame dresses.
In 1914 Callot Sisters moved to 9-11, avenue Matignon. It was also in 1914 when the Callot Sisters, as members of the Le syndicat de defense de la grande couture francaise, put in place controls to protect designer’s original creations, from ready-to-wear copy houses that would recreate them and sell them without the designer’s permission. They were joined by designers such as Paul Poiret, Jacques Worth and Jeanne Paquin to name a few.
The house of Callot remained open, during World War I, and the sisters continued to promote their clothing in America by exhibiting at the 1915 Pacific Panama International Exposition in San Francisco, California. By the 1920s the house had locations in Nice, Biarritz, Buenos Aires, and London. Callot Sisters remained active throughout the 1920s and participated in the 1925 Exposition international des arts decoratifs et industriels moderns in Paris.
In 1928, Madame Gerber’s son Pierre took over the firm and transferred its operations to 41, avenue Montaigne, where it remained until Madame Gerber retired in 1937.
Born in Italy on July 2, 1922, his given name was Pietro Cardini. After several years in Venice his family relocated to France. He studied architecture before joining the house of Paquin in 1945. After leaving Paquin, he worked for a brief time with Paquin and Elsa Schiaparelli. In 1946, he began working for Christian Dior until 1950. He opened his own business, on the rue Richepanse , but later moved to the famed rue du Faubourg Saint-Honore, there he launched his first couture collection in 1953. In 1954 Cardin opened a boutique called Eve, for women, which was followed by Adam for men in 1957. During the 1950s, Cardin designed coats with draped hemlines and loose back panes, bubble skirts and unstructured chemises. In the 1960s he introduced colored wigs. His cut-out dresses; coats and flared applique pockets were widely popular.in is a highly successful couturier, and also one of the first designers to commercialize ready-to-wear, alongside his couture collections. In the 1960s he also embraced the space-age style and experimented with vinyl and metal in combination with traditional wool. Cardin’s Space Age or Cosmocorps collection of 1964 synthesized his streamlined, minimal dressing for both men and women. He introduced knitted catsuits, tight leather trousers, close-fitting helmets and batwing jumpsuits. He raised skirts to four inches above the knee and plunged necklines, band and front, to the navel. Cardin is associated with the use of supple, knitted fabrics made up into bodystockings, catsuits, tubular dresses, tabard tops over leggings and tights. He frequently used the bias cut to produce spiral dresses and is fond of cowl draping. In 1970 he created the controversial maxi dress. In 1971, Cardin obtained an exclusive agreement with a German firm to use its stretch fabric, declaring that "stretch fabrics would revolutionize fashion."
He was the first designer to sell ready-to-wear clothing in the Soviet Union as early as 1971. While Cardin’s men’s wear lines were ultimately more successful than his women’s fashions in the United States during the 1970s, he still owned more than two hundred American retail outlets. His skills as an entrepreneur, and especially his creative licensing, (about 900 licenses), made Pierre Cardin one of the richest people in the fashion world. In 2006, the Pierre Cardin Museum opened in Saint Ouen, Paris, containing more than 1,000 examples of his work.
Hattie Carnegie, was born Henrietta Kanengeiser in Vienna in 1889. At a young age, Carnegie started her career as a milliner.

The use of beautiful fabrics and excellent workmanship were her hallmarks.
