This sensational archive of original fashion designs for Kansas City, MO based department store suppliers, by Marian Ross Mizelle before her move to California in the 1970's to establish the Madrigal boutique with her husband Elliot A. Mizelle (1916-2007). These vividly reveal the Mid-20th-Century fashion trends following World War II. Many of the designs in this collection reflect the transition from the late 1950's elegance, and emphasis on Dior's "New Look" highlighting femininity and opulent use of fabrics, towards the more youthful designs emerging out of Swinging London which were a slimming down, beginning to raise hemlines, with short skirts, bolero tops, and increasing influence of Pierre Cardin, Andre Courreges, and Givenchy. The Mid-20th-Century saw a tremendous upsurge in marketing slimmer lines, tighter fitting bodices, and fashions emerging from such cultural events, as Audry Hepburn in her iconic 1961 "Breakfast at Tiffany's" film, which heavily influenced a generation of young women.Young Marian Ross (b. 1936) after completing her Fashion Academy certificate in 1955, free-lanced, and worked in the New York fashion industry before landing with the influential and hot-selling Gay Gibson label with Gernes Garment Co. in 1961. The Gernes Garment Co. had been originally founded in 1928 by Sara Desaix Gernes (1896-1978), and her husband Alexander Gernes (1882-1947) to market her groundbreaking fashion designs targeting everyday fashion for young women, juniors, and teens. Her designs proved very popular as she initiated and fashioned sizing and dresses and clothing for teenagers through young college-age women, and her designs proved very successful, and were marketed through Chicago's Marshall Field's department store. By 1961, the Gernes Garment Co. moved their design and pattern making department to New York to capture young fashion designers such as Marian Ross, as well as be closer to the influential couturier houses in New York & Paris. The Gay Gibson label was marketed in Mademoiselle, Seventeen, Glamour, and Vogue magazines, with Twiggy often modeling Gay Gibson dresses in the 1960's. Marian's designs were inventive, playful, and emphasizing movement, as well as comfort. Many of the fashion patterns depict her models in flats, ballet flats, or even shoeless, while dressed in elegant evening or formal dress. Also depicted are designs such as billowing harem pants, modified and sleek upscale poodle skirts, and Tartan patterned capes, pockets, dresses, and accessories. Others encompass swimwear, ski wear, as well as the emphasized, and often enforced domesticity of the late 1950's to 1960's, with stylish plaid house-dresses in the kitchen and bar, as well as freque.
