Fun Fashion Fact

American fashion designer Tina Leser was part of a generation of pioneering sportswear designers and became known for her international style. In her collections she, for example, used Hawaiian palaka fabric and Guatemalan handwoven cloth. During the 1950s she designed cropped and harem pants before any other designers. And it is said she was also the first designer to make dresses from cashmere.
